What Is an AI Script Generator?
Before diving into how to use AI to generate your sales video scripts, let’s start with the what. An AI script generator uses artificial intelligence to create tailored scripts in seconds based on prompts that the user enters.
In the case of Vidyard’s AI script generator, enter your video script prompt, generate your scripts in seconds, and then you can use Vidyard to record and send your message for any type of sales video.
You provide specific details and instructions, like the preferred length of the video, target audience, and product features to highlight. The tool will almost instantly spit out a customized script for you to review and record.
How Can An AI Script Generator Help Sellers?
Let’s start by saying that AI script generators are not here to replace you. These are simply tools to help you unlock productivity in your role and help you sell better.
Connecting with prospects and champions will always require building personal relationships by being your authentic self. You’ll be able to spend less time mulling over what to say once you hit record—and more time connecting with additional prospects and customers.
Here are the main areas where it can help you out:
Personalization
Enter prompts to personalize a video sales script for each prospect by adding in their name, individual needs, pain points, and interests.
Time-Saving
Writing a compelling video script from scratch can be a daunting task. AI streamlines this process, allowing you to create persuasive video messages in a fraction of the time.
Boosting Confidence
If you’re nervous about starting to use video messaging in your sales process, AI makes script writing one less thing to worry about. And the more you use it, the easier creating videos will be.
Unlocking Creativity
Playing around with different prompts can offer fresh ideas and new perspectives you may not have considered, enhancing your video scripts and making them more impactful. More on that below!
6 Best Practices for Using AI Script Generators
Alright, enough about why you should use it; how does it actually work?
Like ChatGPT or other generative AI tools you may have tried, it all starts with a prompt. What you put in, or request dictates what you’ll get out of the tool. The better the prompt, the better the output.
Just a quick note: you need to review and validate the outputs before hitting the record button to ensure everything is accurately represented and coming across the way you intend.
Here are some best practices for writing prompts that will get you the best results for script writing and some examples too.
1. Be Specific
AI isn’t a mind reader. If you want certain details to show up in your sales script, provide them in your prompt.
Give clear and concise information about your target audience, the script’s purpose, and details about your product or service to help the AI script generator understand your needs and generate a sales video script that meets your expectations.
Hot tip: If you just ask for “a script”, you might end up with Shakespearian dialogue. Be sure to ask for a sales script specifically.
Try copying and pasting this prompt into the generator:
Write a [30-second] sales script for [prospect’s name and job title]. Include in the script how [your product or solution] can solve [insert problem you solve]. Begin with an attention-grabbing question and end by asking [your call to action].
2. Set the Tone
To make the video script sound more human, describe the tone or style you want to portray, whether professional, casual, persuasive, funny, or something else. This will help the AI generate content that sounds more like you!
Now let’s take the prompt from the last example and add some personality to it:
Write a [friendly and persuasive] [30-second video script] for [your prospect’s name and job title]. Include in the script how [your product or solution] can solve [insert problem]. Begin with an attention-grabbing question and end by asking [your call to action].
3. Provide Examples
Video script still missing the mark? The AI script generator can refer to URLs and other examples you provide.
Next time you send a follow-up video, you don’t have to recap the call yourself. Try directly copying and pasting your meeting transcript (from Gong or another tool) into the AI script generator and ask it to summarize.
Give this example a go:
Write a 90-second video script summarizing the below text: [paste your transcript here] and end by asking [your CTA].
4. Get Creative
If you don’t grab attention in the first few seconds, your prospect might stop watching too soon. A great use of the AI script generator is to get it to help you add creative flair to your video message. You can ask it to write a script as a character from a movie or write a poem about your prospect. The sky’s the limit if you spend some time playing with it.
Try this prompt example:
Write an [upbeat] [30-second] sales script using lines from the movie [your prospect’s favorite movie] to remind [your champion] about an upcoming demo call to walk through [your product].
5. Keep It Short and Focused
Lengthy prompts can make identifying the main objective challenging for the AI. Keep your prompts concise and focused on the key points you want to convey in your video message.
6. Keep Iterating
Two people could use the same recipe for apple pie, and their pies will still come out of the oven looking and tasting a little different, right? The same goes for prompting AI. What works once may not work perfectly a second time. To get the most out of this tool, spend time trying different prompts and phrases and explain things in different ways to get the desired results. The better you get at prompting the AI script generator, the faster it will be at creating awesome video scripts.
