How do I embed a booking calendar in my video?

Short answer

Add a button with the Open Link Modal click action and paste the link to your booking page, such as a Calendly or HubSpot meetings page. When the viewer clicks, the video pauses and the calendar opens on top of the player. When they close it, the video continues.

How to do it

1. Copy the public link to your booking page from your scheduling tool.
2. In the editor, add a button such as “Book a call” at the time you want to offer it.
3. In the button’s Content section, set Click Action to Open Link Modal.
4. Paste the booking link into Enter Link.
5. Save, click Preview, click the button, and book a test time.

Pre-fill the booking form

Click values can use variables. If your scheduling tool can fill in its form from the link, add the viewer’s details, for example https://calendly.com/your-team/intro?name={{name}}&email={{email}}. Check your tool’s documentation for the parameter names it accepts.

Modal or new page

Open Link Modal keeps the viewer in the video. Some websites do not allow other sites to show them in a frame. If the modal is empty, use Open Link instead, which opens the page on its own.

What Mindstamp records

Mindstamp records the click on the button in the viewer’s report. The booking itself is stored in your scheduling tool. Use lead capture before the button if you want to know who clicked.

Where to place the offer

• After the video has answered the viewer’s main question.
• In the Magic Menu, so the booking link is always available.
• At the end, with a button that stays on the last frame.
