Videos For Productivity

Here are 10 ways companies use video to improve productivity:

1. Project Management and Updates (proactive communication)

• Keep your customer in the loop with a video that explains the project and the steps involved.  Ex: construction projects, installation projects, upgrade projects.

2. Onboarding New Hires

• Streamlines the onboarding process with standardized video content that introduces company culture, policies, and job expectations.

• Example: Welcome videos from leadership or virtual office tours.

3. Internal Communication

• Improves engagement and clarity for company updates, announcements, or project briefs.

• Example: Video messages from the CEO or team leads.

4. Knowledge Sharing

• Facilitates asynchronous learning and collaboration by capturing team expertise and sharing it across departments.

• Example: Tutorials, recorded meetings, or expert Q&A sessions.

5. Customer Support Training

• Enhances customer service quality by providing employees with real-world scenarios and best practices through video simulations.

• Example: Training videos for handling difficult customer interactions.

6. Process Documentation

• Simplifies complex workflows by visually demonstrating standard operating procedures (SOPs).

• Example: Step-by-step guides for equipment operation or software usage.

7. Employee Training and Development

• Videos provide consistent and scalable training materials, allowing employees to learn at their own pace and reducing the need for repetitive live sessions.

• Example: Instructional videos for technical skills or compliance training.

8. Sales and Marketing Alignment

• Improves productivity by using video content to educate sales teams about new products, services, or campaigns.

• Example: Product demo videos or campaign overviews.

9. Remote Team Collaboration

• Supports distributed teams by using recorded video meetings, brainstorming sessions, or status updates for easier time-zone management.

• Example: Video summaries of team discussions or decision-making processes.

10. Employee Engagement and Recognition

• Boosts morale and motivation by sharing videos that highlight achievements, celebrate milestones, or recognize employee contributions.

• Example: Employee spotlight videos or monthly team highlights.
