4. Use 80 – 180 words per post

5. Use compelling photos

6. Use 5 – 8 hashtags per post

7. Post on Saturday or Sunday between 10PM – 12AM Eastern time

8. Tease but don’t give it away in share text, headline, excerpt & image

9. Don’t write anything your mom would hate

Video start frame action blur

Big RED video play button (Wistia defaults to grey)

Auto-play front-end offer / Click-to-play upsells

Animated GIF (no iPhone auto-play)

Don’t delay buy buttons

D/L videos in iPhone format & re-upload as main video (Wistia)

CTA after 10 seconds + multiple additional (like infomercials)

Follow up and exit pops go to Amazon

Show product and hands not people in videos

30 second “Billy Mays” style videos convert best
