What is Employee Generated Content and why you should rely on Employee Generated Video

Employee-generated content is any type of content that is created and shared by the company's internal workforce, i.e., by employees. This can be videos, images or blog posts that are related to the company and are created by employees themselves and shared independently of the channel. For example, employee-made videos are suitable for internal communications (CEO announcements or weekly update videos from executives) or as explainer videos by employees for employees. The use of employee-generated videos on social media, for example, is also golden and supports the company's employer branding strategy. After all, nothing is better suited to communicating the employer brand to the outside world than authentic and human videos created directly by employees - creative contributions, genuine insights and unbridled enthusiasm arise as if by themselves, if only you let them.

How Mozaik users do it

Employee-generated videos are particularly well suited in these top 4 areas:

  • Internal communications: weekly update videos; CEO announcements; communication of work instructions; explainer videos, etc.
  • Marketing: presentation of products by employees; introduction of employees, etc.
  • Employer branding: job advertisement videos; insights into everyday working life, etc.
  • Sales: FAQ videos on specific products; personal video messages to key accounts, etc.

And the good thing about it is that employer-generated videos increase the "we" feeling, show the human side of your company, and give you reach on a silver platter. And the whole thing works with a small budget: nowadays, you don't need expensive equipment or external expertise. Modern smartphones combined with an appropriate app are enough basic equipment to create high-quality image and video material.

Create Employee Generated Video - These are the challenges to solve:

  • Lack of know-how in video production: Some employees do not dare to create videos because they lack the know-how. Mozaik guides these employees through the creation process, from conception to editing.
  • Corporate design compliance: Of course, it's important that video content adheres to all of your company's design guidelines. With Mozaik, you can ensure this through company-specific video templates. This is especially true for employees who have no other contact with design topics.
  • Different formats: Part of the freedom of employee-generated content, of course, is that employees can create the videos independently and share them on different channels. However, this also means that the videos are required in various video formats, such as portrait, square or landscape. An optimized solution like Mozaik maps this 100%.
  • Legal certainty: How do you ensure that all videos have the appropriate music licenses? Especially when employees create content on their own, it's important to keep an eye on it. Mozaik ensures that the music and designs of the videos can be used for commercial purposes on all platforms.
