An important part of keeping your recruiting partners and staff compliant is to make sure your training is up-to-date with the requirements of government regulations and to guarantee that it’s accessible, clear, well built and recorded. Video content has become an essential tool for institutions to communicate with their recruiting partners and for recruiting partners to communicate with their staff. Here are some tips to help you to get inspired to record it remotely:
The script is the soul of your training: Take time to prepare, otherwise your training may take longer to record and edit. and select. So before hitting the record button, plan your content, keep it concise and focused, short and to the point. Deliver relevant information to your recruiting partners and their needs.
The right light in the right location is the key to success: Choose the quietest room in the house or office, but don’t forget that the right light makes all the difference in the quality of your video. You don’t need the best equipment to create great training, you just need the right light. Try to aim for natural lighting, record facing a window or invest in affordable equipment to do so.
Authenticity is the best tool of all: Remember to connect with your audience by looking at the camera and acting naturally, be confident and avoid looking at yourself on the screen or getting distracted by other elements in your surroundings.
If they can’t hear you, they can’t understand it: That’s why audio quality matters, invest in a decent microphone or headset to ensure your voice comes through loud and clear. You can even use your phone to do so, just make sure to download the right apps for it.
Post Production Matters: Before sharing your video edit and review with care. After all the steps we’ve been through, editing also deserves your time and attention, make sure the video is coherent and trim any unnecessary footage. You can record your camera, share your screen and do basic editing all in one place with apps like Loom our Vidyard. There are also many user-friendly editing software options available for beginners.
If they don’t see it, it doesn’t count: Make sure to share and promote your training to your recruiting partners. Including it in every communication including the signature of your emails, any newsletter and in-person interaction with your recruitment partners always help. The most successful strategy is to make it mandatory for your agents, meaning you can’t sign or renew agreements until you have proof of training. This will also help you stay compliant and improve your adoption and completion rates.
