Video Testimonial Contest Entry Form
About this free form template

Win Amazing Prizes by Sharing Your Product Story

Running a video testimonial contest is one of the smartest marketing strategies for SaaS companies—and with Paperform's Video Testimonial Contest Entry Form, you can collect authentic customer stories while building a library of powerful social proof.

Why Video Testimonial Contests Work for SaaS

In the crowded SaaS marketplace, authentic customer voices cut through the noise. Video testimonials are 10x more engaging than text reviews, and when you gamify the process with a contest, you unlock a goldmine of user-generated content that drives conversions across your entire funnel.

This template makes it effortless for customers to share their success stories while giving your marketing team everything they need: high-quality video uploads, detailed usage narratives, specific feature highlights, and proper consent to use testimonials across campaigns.

Built for Marketing Teams and Growth Hackers

Whether you're a SaaS startup building social proof from scratch or an established platform refreshing your testimonial library, this form template streamlines the entire collection process. Marketing managers, content creators, and customer success teams can launch a contest in minutes without developer support.

The form captures:

  • Participant contact information for prize fulfillment and follow-up
  • Video testimonial uploads with clear guidance on content and format
  • Written product stories that provide context and SEO-friendly content
  • Feature highlights showing which capabilities resonate most with users
  • Usage duration and role for segmenting testimonials by persona
  • Marketing consent ensuring legal compliance for promotional use
  • Social media handles for cross-promotion and influencer identification

How This Template Accelerates Your Marketing

Speed up content creation: Instead of scheduling interviews and editing footage, let customers create authentic testimonials on their own time. You'll receive submission-ready content that requires minimal post-production.

Build social proof at scale: Run quarterly contests to continuously refresh your testimonial library. Each campaign generates dozens of video testimonials that can be repurposed across landing pages, email campaigns, social media, and sales decks.

Identify brand advocates: Discover your most enthusiastic customers and invite them into ambassador programs, beta testing groups, or case study opportunities.

Segment by use case: The form captures role, company size, and specific features used, allowing you to create persona-specific testimonials that speak directly to different segments of your target audience.

Stay compliant: Built-in consent fields ensure you have proper authorization to use testimonials across marketing channels, protecting your brand from legal issues.

Seamless Integration with Your Marketing Stack

This Paperform template connects directly with the tools marketing teams already use. Send entries to HubSpot or Salesforce for lead scoring and nurture campaigns. Upload videos automatically to Google Drive, Dropbox, or Frame.io for your creative team to access. Notify your Slack channel when new entries arrive, or trigger a Stepper workflow that scores submissions, sends confirmation emails, and updates your CRM—all automatically.

For agencies managing multiple SaaS clients, Paperform's Agency+ plan lets you white-label this template and deploy it across client accounts with custom branding for each.

On-Brand Contest Experience That Converts

First impressions matter, especially in competitive SaaS markets. Paperform's visual editor lets you match this contest form to your exact brand guidelines—custom fonts, brand colors, logo placement, and even background images or video. Embed the form seamlessly into your website, or host it on a custom domain as a dedicated contest landing page that drives traffic and captures entries.

Choose between a traditional scrolling layout or Guided Mode for a modern, one-question-at-a-time experience that reduces form abandonment and feels more conversational. Add your brand voice to field descriptions, success messages, and email confirmations to create a cohesive experience from entry to winner announcement.

Automate the Entire Contest Lifecycle

Beyond just collecting entries, Paperform enables end-to-end contest automation:

  • Instant confirmation emails with contest terms and next steps
  • Conditional success pages that encourage social sharing to boost virality
  • Integration with judging platforms or internal review workflows
  • Winner notification sequences via email or CRM automation
  • Follow-up campaigns for non-winners, offering consolation prizes or exclusive content

Connect this form to Stepper to build sophisticated workflows: automatically score video submissions based on criteria, route entries to different judges by category, send reminder emails to participants, update leaderboards in real-time, and even trigger prize fulfillment when winners are selected.
