Your hardware supplier in China wants local partners to contribute video. A funny unboxing wins the contest. A week later a distributor asks for a clip that helps new staff recognize the finished setup for a particular model. The winner may be a good creator to hire, but the library needs a different acceptance test.

What GoodWe asked installers to submit

In its regional announcement, GoodWe invited South African installers to post original clips publicly on TikTok or Facebook and submit an entry form for the Lekker Install Challenge. The announced window was November 1 to December 11, 2026. Green Building Africa covered the campaign on November 6. That confirms the recruitment design, rather than the training value or reuse rights of any specific entry.

Give the channel team a coverage sheet

Pick three jobs a dealer needs to do. For each, record the market, model, use case, what the clip can establish, technical approver and permitted audience, term and channels. For a hypothetical wall-mounted tool charger, ask the Chinese product team to identify the regional model and the dealer to record a finished setup. A clip may show where the accessories sit; it cannot certify the wall mounting or wiring. Keep the approved manual attached and have a qualified local reviewer check technical content. Remove or clear identifiable people and customer details before wider distribution.

Commission gaps, not more entries

Ask a dealer who did not shoot the video to find the right model and approved instructions without contacting the campaign team. If the footage fits and its reuse is cleared, admit it. If the use case is sound but the edit skips a model identifier or the finished view, commission that small pickup from the partner. If the method cannot be verified or dealer distribution is outside the permission, leave it out. Separate the cost of running the contest, filming pickups, technical review and licensing.
