Who owns salesperson videos, and what happens when a sales consultant leaves the dealership?
A video a salesperson records on their own personal phone belongs to that salesperson. The dealership owns content produced on its own equipment, and Promptur claims no ownership of either.
Where Promptur fits
Promptur is a video content platform for sales teams. Each salesperson gets a question on screen, written for their store, then records and shares a short answer from the Promptur recording app.
Who owns the videos
Videos a salesperson records on their own personal phone belong to that salesperson. The dealership owns content produced on the store’s own equipment, such as store-owned phones or cameras. Promptur doesn’t own any of it: it only has a licence to host and process the videos so the service works.
When a salesperson leaves
- Videos recorded on their own personal phone: they’re the salesperson’s own, and go with them.
- Content produced on the store’s own equipment: it stays with the dealership.
Agree it up front
Whatever tool you use, write down how salesperson videos are handled before the first one is posted, and share it with the team. This page isn’t legal advice.
