Edit Copy and Calls to Action
Write product video copy, offer text, and calls to action that stay readable in PufferCut templates.
Good product video copy is short, specific, and easy to read while the product is moving. PufferCut can use Shopify product data, but you should review the copy before rendering.
Choose one selling job
Before editing text, decide what the video needs to do:
- introduce a new product
- show a product detail
- promote an offer
- explain a bundle
- move shoppers to the product page
Trying to do every job in one short video usually makes the result crowded.
Keep product titles readable
Shopify product titles are often written for catalog management, not video. If a title is long, rewrite it for the video card or template text.
For example:
- Instead of:
Premium Stonewashed Linen Weekender Tote Bag - Sand / Large - Use:
Linen Weekender Tote
Make offer text concrete
Use offer copy that a shopper can understand quickly:
20% off this weekFree shipping over $75New spring colorBundle and saveShips in 2 days
Avoid vague claims such as best quality, must-have, or game changer
unless the product page supports that claim clearly.
Write a direct call to action
Good calls to action are short:
Shop nowView productChoose your colorBuild your bundleSee details
Match the CTA to the destination. If the video will live on a product page,
See details may be less useful than a benefit or offer line. If the video will
run as an ad, a direct shopping CTA is usually clearer.
Preview for text fit
Before rendering, check every scene in the preview. If a line wraps too much, covers the product, or feels hard to read on mobile, shorten it.
