Training with screen videos
Written beats spoken. One task at a time beats a list of ten. A finished example beats a description. For anything with more than three steps, record your screen for two minutes while you do it once — free tools like Loom make it one click — and let them write the steps back to you in their own words. If their version matches yours, the task is understood.
Keep every video and every written step in one shared folder. That folder becomes your training manual, and your second hire learns from it without you.
Do this today: record one two-minute video of the task you do most.
