Call to Action stack for RapidWeaver

04/27/2016
https://preview.joeworkman.net/call-t... The Call to Action stack takes care of the most critical components of the CTA process. It integrates with the best modal stacks out there. It then launches them based on pre-defined triggers for page load, focus, and scroll position. This will allow you to prompt your visitors at key moments in order to capture their email or provide key information.https://preview.joeworkman.net/call-t...

00:00 turn your website visitors into some of
00:01 this hey everyone I'm Joe workman and
00:12 today I am excited to introduce you to
00:15 the new call to action stack set for
00:17 rapidweaver now you're probably familiar
00:20 with what a call to action is if you've
00:23 perused the web at any point you've
00:25 interacted with them all over the place
00:27 they're the little pop-up windows or the
00:30 things that slide in from the side they
00:32 get you to subscribe to a mailing list
00:34 or check out a new offer or get a new
00:36 discount code right and until now we
00:40 could do that with rapidweaver but it
00:42 was on an individual stack by stack
00:44 basis but with call to action we've
00:47 integrated with the best of the lightbox
00:49 and modal stacks to provide all the
00:52 call-to-action functionality that you
00:54 need in your favorite stacks so here we
00:58 are on the call to actions website and
01:00 let's go to the actions page to see
01:03 exactly what calls to actions are
01:05 available the first one as you see is
01:09 very apparent when you open this page
01:11 you'll see on the initial page load we
01:13 have a call to action this particular
01:16 one is asking us to subscribe to a
01:18 mailing list so this is our entry call
01:21 to action but let's see what other
01:24 actions we have available we have the
01:27 ability to trigger on exit intent so we
01:31 predict when a user is potentially going
01:34 to leave your web page and display a
01:36 modal to them for example if I go ahead
01:39 and in this browser window click on the
01:41 browser title bar chances are we might
01:46 be leaving this web page now in this
01:49 exit intent modal maybe you want to
01:51 entice them to stay with a promotion
01:53 code or maybe you want to ask them if
01:55 they enjoyed your content you want to
01:56 subscribe to their mailing list right
01:58 these calls to action are completely up
02:00 to you now next up is we can actually
02:03 trigger actions off the click of a
02:06 button or a link this pride the most
02:09 used call to action available because I
02:11 can click on a button
02:13 we'll launch my call to action I can
02:16 also click it from a text link as well
02:17 now it's great as if you set your links
02:20 to open in a new window and you click on
02:21 them what will happen is that link will
02:24 open in a new window however when the
02:27 user goes back to your page that call to
02:30 action is there and is ready for them to
02:32 be seen very cool the last action
02:36 trigger available is scroll position and
02:39 we'll see as I scroll down this webpage
02:42 will see that a nice glider has glided
02:46 down from the top to show us another
02:48 call to action which is to subscribe to
02:51 our mailing list this is great because
02:53 as these are scrolling down there most
02:55 likely consume your content so maybe
02:58 they're going to enjoy more of your
02:59 content and would be willing to
03:01 subscribe to your mail list now all
03:03 these actions that are available are
03:05 awesome right but how do we know if
03:09 they're successful are we actually
03:11 converting our website users indic leads
03:14 and ultimately customers right so what
03:18 the cliq 2 action stacks do for us is
03:20 that they integrate with our favorite
03:23 analytic software so google analytics p
03:27 WIC go squared clicky right those are
03:29 the most popular analytic software that
03:32 we use to track our website visitors and
03:34 this stack set integrates directly with
03:37 those so whenever an action is triggered
03:39 whether or not it be free a mouse click
03:42 or scroll position or entry on a page
03:44 right those custom events are sent and
03:48 logged inside your analytics software so
03:51 you can see exactly how many times these
03:53 actions were triggered and then you can
03:56 determine whether or not the button
03:58 inside was clicked whether or not your
03:59 mailing list is growing and that's where
04:02 you can see exactly how these call to
04:04 actions are affecting your business now
04:07 next we need to ensure that we don't
04:09 annoy our users with these calls to
04:11 action because I'm sure you've been to a
04:14 website and they have just pop ups going
04:17 up all over the place and you're annoyed
04:19 what do you want to do you're going to
04:21 leave the website so what the
04:24 call-to-action stacks allow us to do is
04:25 they
04:26 give us control over how often we're
04:29 going to show these actions to our users
04:31 you can do it once per page load you can
04:34 show it the user once ever you can show
04:38 it once per session so that they can see
04:40 once they visit your website they only
04:42 see it one time and then the next time
04:44 they visit your website they can see it
04:45 again or maybe you want to show them
04:47 once every 100 days right there's
04:51 granular control in these actions to
04:53 allow you to determine how often you
04:56 want to alert your visitors now it's
04:59 important to note that the call to
05:00 action stacks actually don't contain any
05:02 light boxes or modal's at all what it
05:06 does is it integrates with the best ones
05:09 that are already available and chances
05:11 are you have multiple of these in your
05:13 stacks library already and on this
05:16 integrations page you can see examples
05:18 of all of the various models that call
05:22 to action will integrate with so if
05:24 you're using my foundation theme you can
05:26 actually integrate directly with the
05:28 reveal lightbox or my expose lightbox
05:31 stack or glider which is probably one of
05:35 my favorite I really love glider a lot
05:37 and there's not only mine right you have
05:39 peekaboo for me we have focused from
05:42 elixir graphics which has a really
05:43 amazing effect and then we have other
05:48 great modal stacks from other developers
05:49 top box pop box fancy viewer those are
05:53 all really popular modal stacks from our
05:56 favorite developers now scroll line is
05:59 our last feature that we're going to
06:00 talk today with call to action stack and
06:02 what's scroll line allows is you see at
06:05 the very bottom of this browser window
06:07 we have a bar and it is a progress bar
06:10 that shows you the progress of the users
06:13 scroll as he Scrolls down the page and
06:15 once we reach the very bottom we can
06:18 launch a call to action because we know
06:21 that the users has visited the entire
06:23 content of that page so chances are they
06:26 might want to sign up for your mailing
06:27 list or have some other action so this
06:31 is a great stack and it can actually
06:33 display the bar on the bottom top left
06:36 or right sides of the browser window so
06:39 that is the
06:40 call to action stack set everybody as
06:41 you see it is a very powerful set
06:43 because it integrates with all your
06:46 favorite lightbox and modal stacks but
06:48 gives you the control on when to launch
06:50 them and when to interact with your
06:52 customers and obviously not annoy them
06:55 very much because we don't want to do
06:57 that because if we annoy our customers
06:59 too much we're definitely not converting
07:01 them into the into dollars so i hope you
07:04 enjoy call to actions i'm excited to see
07:06 what you do with it and how it can be
07:09 used not only to make your websites
07:10 better but improve your business so
07:13 thank you very much everybody have a
07:15 great day and happy weaving by
07:26 you"}]
