4. Use different video types.

Here are some videos that perform well on Twitter: explainer videos, how-to videos, storytelling videos, comedic, but relevant videos, and infographic style videos. Use multiple videos in your campaigns and test which one performs best.

You need to make sure your video ads are text-based since they auto-play without sound on Twitter. Add text to your video and make sure your video messaging is clear without the audio. Please refer to FlexClip Video Text Editor to get some ideas on how to add text to your video.

6. Add compelling CTAs.

CTA means call to action in marketing. CTAs appear in various places of an ad video to tell your audience what to do next. Please note that CTAs should be compelling, convincing, and easy to do.
