Struggling to give clear information or instructions via email and group chats?
No worries, Loom is the answer. Loom recordings make communication easier by allowing you to show, not just tell, complex instructions. It helps reduce misunderstandings and gives people the chance to revisit the content whenever needed. With Loom, you can enhance collaboration and ensure everyone is on the same page, no matter where they are.
Benefits Of Using Loom Videos For Communication
Loom saves time for both the client and virtual assistant: When providing instructions or explaining a task, creating a Loom video can often be much quicker than writing out long, detailed emails or messages. A video allows the client to visually guide the assistant, and vice versa, speeding up the process of communication.
It’s easier to understand: Visual learning is natural for most people, so Loom videos help clients and virtual assistants understand instructions more clearly and quickly. Instead of reading through paragraphs of text, they can see the steps being performed, which often reduces the need for follow-up questions and clarifications.
Encourages flexible communication: Remote work can make scheduling meetings difficult, and excessive live meetings can interrupt both the client’s and virtual assistant’s productivity. Loom allows them to communicate asynchronously, meaning they can send and review instructions or updates at convenient times without needing to coordinate schedules.
Boosts engagement: Since people are more likely to engage with visual content, Loom videos are much more likely to be watched and reviewed compared to text-heavy documents. This means clients and virtual assistants are more likely to fully understand the information and provide feedback, leading to better collaboration and fewer missed details.
Different ways in which Loom can be used internally
Training People: Training is a regular task, whether it’s about a workflow, a feature, or the whole product. You can give people a document with screenshots, but they may not fully understand it the first time, leading to confusion and extra questions. A video explaining the process makes it much clearer.
Walking People Through a Document: How often do people actually read the documents you share before meetings? I’ve found that many don’t, even for important meetings. While this needs a bigger cultural change, a video walkthrough of the document can help ensure everyone is on the same page.
Sharing Useful Information: Sometimes, we come across products or features that really impress us, and we want to share them with others. Describing our thoughts can be tough, and we might not be able to fully express how great something is. A video showing what we liked makes it much easier to communicate and share the details.
Simplify your business, delegate tasks effectively, and boost efficiency. Start using Loom and experience the difference it can make.
