VSL editing for coaches, course creators and B2B offers: your script cut into a sales video that holds attention to the offer, with slides and screen recordings in sync, on-screen text on each claim, proof b-roll and captions for muted playback.
Mark Studios edits video sales letters, launch promos and long-form video ads from your script and footage. You work directly with Mark Santos: he cuts the presenter, slides and screen recordings to the script, adds on-screen text for each claim, proof b-roll, testimonial clips and captions, and builds the close around your offer. A VSL under 20 minutes takes 5–7 business days; one of 30–60 minutes usually takes 7–10. Start with the instant quote for a fixed price before any work begins.

| Short ad creatives | Meta, TikTok and YouTube ads, many variants | Commercial & ad editing |
Buyers rarely say "VSL". They ask for a promo, a sales video or a video ad. This page covers the long-form, script-driven ones, where retention across minutes decides the sale. For what's happening in video ad spend, see our video advertising statistics. Comparing editors first? See our list of the best VSL and video ad editors.
Share one folder (Google Drive, Dropbox or Frame.io) with the final script, presenter camera files, the slide deck, screen recordings, testimonial clips and your logo. Add the offer details too: price, bonuses, guarantee and the CTA link. Presenter files in 4K are large, so a folder link beats single uploads.
The quote is priced on runtime, how many sources need syncing and how much on-screen text and b-roll the script calls for. You see one fixed price before paying, and nothing is billed by the hour. Rush delivery and hook variants are priced in the same quote.
The first cut runs the whole script: presenter and slides in sync, text on the claims, proof b-roll, testimonials in place, captions on and the close built around your offer. You judge the pacing on a complete sales video, not a rough assembly.
Leave timestamped notes in the review tool. VSL notes are usually about the pitch: tighten the hook, move a testimonial earlier, give the price reveal its own beat, fix the wording of a claim on screen. Each of the 3 rounds comes back in 24–72 hours.
You get MP4 masters for the sales page and web player, a captioned version for muted autoplay, and 1:1 or 9:16 exports if the VSL also runs as an ad.
The six samples above are real VSLs: Freedom Formations, SIC and Thonic in finance (Thonic with no presenter on screen), VIP Coaching Program for a coach, Wido for a course offer and MAGNACYBER for a cybersecurity company. Each one carries a script to an offer, the same job your VSL has.
Mark Santos has edited his own YouTube videos since 2011 and grew that channel past 200K subscribers. Keeping a viewer through minute twelve of a VSL uses the same instincts: cut the slack, change the picture when the argument turns, and keep the screen moving through the proof.
Every claim, figure and disclaimer on screen comes from your script and your approvals. We don't add income, health or results promises, and the disclaimer text you supply goes on screen exactly as written, so what your compliance reviewer approved is what plays.
“He's become so much more than just a video editor. He's developed websites for me, developed logos for me. He's helped me with my Google ads. … He's got excellent customer service. He's communicative. He's timely.”
Robert Freitas, LCSW · Therapy Services Morgan HillA VSL edit turns your script and recordings into a finished sales video: presenter, slides and screen recordings cut together, on-screen text for each claim, proof b-roll and testimonial clips, captions, music and a close built around the offer. Webinar pitches and launch promos are edited the same way. A batch of short ad creatives is a different job, covered on commercial and ad editing.
The price depends on finished runtime, how many sources have to be synced (presenter, slides, screen recordings), how much on-screen text and b-roll the script needs, testimonial clips, hook variants and rush delivery. The instant quote gives a fixed price for your VSL before you pay. Plans are on pricing, and market rates for ad edits are in video ad editing cost.
The final script, presenter camera files, the slide deck or a recording of it, any screen recordings, testimonial clips, your logo and fonts, and the offer details: price, bonuses, guarantee and CTA link. Add one or two VSLs whose pacing you like. The edit follows your script; writing the script or recording a voiceover is quoted separately, and a rewrite after the cut starts counts as a scope change.
A VSL under 20 minutes takes 5–7 business days from the moment the script and footage arrive. VSLs of 30–60 minutes usually take 7–10 business days. Rush delivery is available when capacity allows and is priced in the quote. Each of the 3 revision rounds then comes back in 24–72 hours, so build those days into your launch calendar.
Yes, most VSLs are built that way. The presenter camera, slide recordings and screen-share walkthroughs are lined up to the script, the picture moves to whichever source makes the current point clearest, and static slides get motion so they don't sit dead on screen. Send the slides as a recording, or as exported images in deck order.
No. The claims, figures and disclaimers in a sales video are the client's responsibility, as our terms set out, so have them reviewed before the edit starts. We put on screen what your approved script says, add the disclaimer text you send exactly as written, and don't add income, health or results promises of our own.
Yes, on request. Alternate openings are cut from the same edit, so the body and the close stay identical and only the first seconds change, which keeps the test clean. Tell us how many variants you need before you take the quote, so they are priced in from the start rather than added later.
Every VSL includes 3 revision rounds within the agreed scope. You leave timestamped notes in the review tool (or by email or chat), and each round returns in 24–72 hours. Typical VSL notes: tighten the hook, move a testimonial, slow the price reveal, fix on-screen wording. If a first cut is structurally wrong, we rebuild it at no charge.
Yes. Funnel builders and agencies send the script and footage, and we deliver an unbranded VSL they hand to their client as their own work, under NDA and kept out of our portfolio on request. Details are on white-label video editing.
Tell us about the sales video you need cut — script, footage, and format — and we'll scope the edit within 1 business day.
Buyers rarely say “VSL”: it and “video sales letter” each appeared in fewer than 10 of 698 first messages, while “ads” appeared in 26 and “promotional” in 17 (what buyers ask before hiring a video editor).
Not a fit if you need the offer itself built and split-tested. A direct-response copywriter or conversion agency fits that better; Mark edits the sales video from your script.
