πŸš€Getting Started With SmartText

Why You Should Use SmartText

There are two primary reasons why you should be using SmartText:

  1. Increase your sales with personalized site pages using SmartTags and SmartLinks: By using SmartText tags within your site pages, you can have your page speak directly to your reader by injecting personalized attributes like their name, company, type of user and more. Using SmartLinks, you can also deliver different variations of your sales page copy so that the messaging is better directed at the website visitor. Works perfectly with any email marketing platform as well as sharing links via social media.

  2. Improve your video lesson experience with SmartTimeCodes: Give your students a better idea of what is included in your videos with a quick list of time codes that will communicate to your students that key concepts will be covered. This is especially helpful for long videos to help with increasing their interest and engagement levels. It is also very helpful for "AdHoc" types of videos (ex: Coaching call replays, Q&A sessions, Live stream relays)

How to use SmartText

Step 1: Make sure you have SmartText installed into your site

During the installation process, we have injected our SmartText superpower into your site and make it active on your entire site (except on the Single Step checkout and Thinkific Communities). Be sure to check the Apps page of your site and verify that SmartText is installed. If you do not see it, then head back to our member area and reinstall SmartText PowerUp.

Once you have SmartText installed, then you can start using it's superpowers:

  • ****SmartTimeCodes: Hop into a video lesson in your course curriculum settings and add some time codes into the text option of the video lesson. Simply add MM:SS or HH:MM:SS and make it underlined and the text will instantly become clickable inside the course player.

  • ****SmartTags: Open up Site Builder and navigate to a page and section that you want to add some SmartTags to. Start off by simply inserting a SmartTag to address your website visitor by name: <smart text="πŸ‘‹{{first_name}}, "/> Join our Free Workshop

  • ****SmartLinks: Make your site pages even more powerful by using SmartLinks to either use up to 5 custom user attributes like company, user type, etc or use SmartLinks to introduce variations of your text so that you can deliver the right message to the right person at the right time.
