The ThankView Customer Outcomes team receives a lot of questions about how to get the most out of a ThankView subscription. We want to open up your FAQs and answers to the whole community!
This month we’re addressing:
We’re excited to announce that you can now upload your own SRT or VTT caption file to your ThankView videos!
There are 2 ways to upload the file.
2. In the Video Library
If you do not have a caption file to upload, no problem! You can still purchase captioning for your video. For more on that process click here.
We’ve got another new feature that we are excited to announce…. drumroll…. keep it coming….yes, this is one of those obnoxiously long drumrolls…. you can now mass upload contacts directly into the “Contacts” tab!
This means you can update information quickly and easily . If you’d like to update your contacts to contain a Donor ID or update their giving tier, go to the “Contacts” tab and click “Add Contacts.”
From there, you can either manually add contacts or upload a csv. file with the correct information like “First Name,” “Years Giving” or any other category you’d like to include.
If you’re interested in organizing your contacts with Lists (Lists can looks like “Internal Staff Emails,” All Current Year Donors,” or “Our Favorite Donors”) click this link to learn more.

If you’ve been a ThankView partner for a while, your Video Library most likely has a TON of videos. To help keep your Video Library easily searchable, we highly encourage our partners to use the Folders and Tagging options. There are limitless ways to set your up Video Library, but here are a few best practices:
Whether you’re categorizing by year, giving level or your own organization system, it’s helpful to include the date the video was made or sent in the title of the video. If it is a personalized video, make sure to include the recipient’s name in the title. If not, it’s helpful to include the campaign title so you can easily find the video you’re looking for at a later date.
