In this video I share exactly what I did to increase my visibility in the workplace during the first year of my 2nd full-time job! I was promoted relatively quickly during my tenure as an Account Manager because of three reasons: (1) I had a kick-ass manager, (2) I had transferable skills from my management consulting days, and (3) Most importantly, I stood out from others by helping mentor new hires at scale Because I was (hopefully) providing real value to the business (helping senior leadership ramp up the new joiners) and to the new hires themselves (sharing my own experiences and practical tips on how to succeed), this "side project" was talked about among my colleagues and I was able to organically increase my visibility in the workplace The best part? It's not even that difficult to do with free tools like Scribe 😁 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Boost Your Visibility in the Workplace 00:41 How I Mentored New Hires 01:20 Benefits of Mentoring Others at Work 02:43 How to Mentor New Joiners At Scale 03:11 Screen Recording Tools for PC 03:25 Downsides of Recording Screen 03:52 How to use Scribe 06:11 Pro Tips when Using Scribe RESOURCES I MENTION IN THE VIDEO Think Outside the Box Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5c9SapE_YNU&list=PLo-kPya_Ww2zYYTicVo2UvzWeQr-4WIY6 @KevinStratvert Kevin Stratvert's 5 Best FREE Screen Recorders - https://youtu.be/nCNri04lHaI Scribe's Privacy Policy - https://scribehow.com/privacy/ MY FAVORITE GEAR 🎥 My YouTube Gear - https://geni.us/youtube-gear 🎒 What's In My Bag - https://geni.us/mybag 💻 What's On My Desk - https://geni.us/mydesk 🛩 What I Travel With - https://geni.us/mytravel MY FAVORITE SOFTWARE ✍️ Skillshare - https://geni.us/skillshare-jeff BE MY FRIEND: 📧 Subscribe to my Productivity newsletter - https://www.jeffsu.org/productivity-ping/ 📸 Instagram - https://instagram.com/j.sushie 🤝 LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jsu05/ 👋🏻 Clubhouse - https://www.joinclubhouse.com/@jsushie 👨🏻‍💻 WHO AM I: I'm Jeff, a full time Product Marketer.

How I Mentored New Hires

before targets is the earth's core right and there's several layers above that the next layer above would be let's say we're able to push all our account spending level up so in the end the next level up is actually graduating them to other pods which this is one of the first videos i've ever made and i was directed towards new joiners joining the sales team teaching them the basics of digital marketing this turned out to be a great supplement to our formal onboarding program since i included my own personal observations as well as tips to avoid mistakes i had already made at the risk of sounding disingenuous i didn't do this with a goal of mine i just thought it was a very efficient way to answer the same questions i received from new hires over and over again during our one-on-ones

Benefits of Mentoring Others at Work

but looking back this was such an easy and natural way to increase my presence within the team even though i just joined for about six months and here are three reasons why first the curse of knowledge this is a concept first brought up by cs lewis in which he argues that people don't learn best from experts instead we learn best from those who are just one step ahead of us along the same journey and if you think about it this is why most companies have a buddy system right someone new gets paired up with a teammate who joined six to 12 months prior because the boss is too far removed from the day-to-day job which leads me to the second reason helping senior leadership managers know they're not in the best position to teach new hires operational details so by stepping in you're doing them a huge favor and guess who has the power to give high performance ratings that's right jan levenstein i'm their boss i'm your boss third word of mouth according to jonah burger's best-selling book contagious a key reason why some things get talked about more than others is because of the practical value they bring to the listener and if you are able to share practical tangible advice with new hires a group of people who are encouraged to have one-on-ones with everyone and anyone during the first few months you will be organically increasing your visibility in the workplace okay jeff i get the benefits alright i mentor colleagues at work as well i'm not getting promoted and this is where

How to Mentor New Joiners At Scale

scalability comes in put in plain english helping one or two people is good helping a hundred is great so i'll first share what i actually did then share what i would do today if put in the same situation so back then i basically took the most common questions my colleagues and i received and made a series of videos by recording my laptop screen and my voice shared those videos with each batch of new hires teaching 20 to 30 people at once i do this on a mac using quicktime

Screen Recording Tools for PC

player but if you're on a pc you can do the exact same thing with free tools like obs xbox game bar and zoom kevin stratford has a great video on how to record your screen on pc so i'll link his video down below as well while this

Downsides of Recording Screen

works fine for me there were a few downsides for example i didn't know how to edit videos back then so whenever i messed up in the middle i would have to redo the entire thing and for nitty gritty instructions like what buttons to press audio is actually not as effective as written instructions since you could just read the text at your own pace finally the underlying product and processes get updated pretty regularly so the videos i made would be outdated every six months or so which brings me to a

How to use Scribe

free tool i wish existed much earlier scribe instead of telling you let me just show you this is a google ads account this is my personal one and all incoming digital marketers are expected to know the basics of these types of platforms like facebook ads title ads uh even reddit has an ad platform because the interface can be overwhelming at first a lot of the questions i received were related to the operations of this tool so check this out i click the scribe extension up here click start recording and then i click the hamburger menu here pick one of these campaigns at random let's just pick this one doesn't matter if you don't understand what this is go to ads and extensions click ads and for this specific ad creative i want to pause it like so after that's done i click the extension again to stop the recording and now a new scribe will be created in this new tab i can edit the title something more meaningful like how to pause a single ad copy as opposed to pausing the entire campaign and as you can see scribe has zoomed into the relevant areas and captured all my mouse clicks as well i can choose to delete a step that's not needed or change the step title to something more meaningful click the hamburger menu like so uh edit this screenshot by changing the crop around like this um i can move the dot uh and i can even redact sensitive information that might appear on screen by adding a redaction area like so i'm just going to do this randomly and click permanently redact yes proceed i can save this as a new step after this is processed you can see the area has now been redacted you can click done and now share this link with your teammates this is awesome this is so simple to use and clear for the viewer and it's free so get it by clicking the link down below given how hybrid and remote work trends will likely continue and you can't just sit down next to someone and look over their shoulder think about how frustrating communicating these instructions could have been it'll be extremely annoying to type or read over email and i still actually get emails like this at work and presenting your screen works sure but that means everyone would have to dial in at the same time for something relatively simple my advice to those of

Pro Tips when Using Scribe

you who want to try this out use a google doc as a central repository for all your scribes when there's a batch of new hires share the google doc with them and boom they can go through all this useful information in their own time what's more you can track how many views your scribes got so you can include those concrete metrics in your performance reviews and if the underlying product or process changes you can make corresponding edits to your existing scribe at this point i have to mention once you start recording it does record an entire screen so you might want to check with your company's security and privacy policies uh when using scribe more broadly i'll link scribe's own privacy policy down below as well of course you can always fall back to my original method of recording your screen and your voice it takes a bit more work but let me know down in the comments if you want a video teaching you how to do that step by step if you found this helpful you might want to check out my think outside the box playlist for more creative ways to stand out at work see you on the next video in the meantime have a great one
