How marketers should use screen recorders

One of the most significant pain points Marketing teams face is that there are so many competing priorities. Marketers are charged with effectively connecting with audiences, managing and tracking campaign performance, managing internal workflows, efficiently creating and managing content, and doing constant market research and competitor analysis. These tasks can be both time-consuming and complex.

Our Marketing team’s motto is “small, but mighty.” It’s not uncommon to shock partners or Rewatch customers on calls when we share that there’s only four people on the team. We get a lot done, and it’s truthfully because we have bought into our own product.

Often underutilized in the marketer’s toolkit, Rewatch’s screen recorder offers a versatile solution to many of these challenges. It not only saves time but also enhances the quality and effectiveness of our marketing efforts, making it an invaluable resource. Because our screen recorder seamlessly works within the Rewatch ecosystem, videos are then searchable, sharable, and transcribed without any extra effort — plus our four-person team can collaborate on the videos and invite the rest of the company to join the conversation, when necessary.

Below are our favorite ways to use what we consider the best screen recorder on the market.
