To add the video image in your email:
  1. Go to Blocks.
  2. Drag and Drop the Video icon  to the section you want to place it (A green block will appear with the text: Drop Here)in.
  3. Once you have dropped the video then click on Link to Video.
  4. In the dialogue box (Top right) paste your Video URL, then click on Insert.
  5. Set your Video Block, choose a background or border color and the padding, then click on Save & Close on the block menu.

Important: The video is not actually embedded in your email. This is because the email clients would flag the email as spam if your email contains scripts and embed tags. Benchmark email overcomes this problem by using a screenshot of the video and a link on it. When the recipient clicks on the image to play the video, the recipient is taken to a web version of the email with the video in it. The video will play in the browser within your email layout.
