## Summary

This video offers a comprehensive guide for creative professionals and designers on how to build an engaging social media presence without showing their face on camera. It presents six practical content strategies, from product demonstrations to behind-the-scenes glimpses, designed to showcase products, build trust, and drive audience engagement.

### Key Points

- **The Problem: Fear of Posting** [00:00] — Creative people often feel uncomfortable posting and being judged, leading to avoidance and low engagement. Social media is effective for building an audience only if you know how to entertain them.
- **Strategy 1: How-To Content** [00:50] — Give advice on how to wear or use your products without showing your face. This creates trust and helps the audience see the product's value in real life, acting as a tutorial that works for you while you sleep.
- **Strategy 2: Unboxing Videos** [02:02] — Show the client's experience from receiving the product to unboxing it. These are easy to create and can go viral. Reverse unboxing, showing how you package an order, also builds trust and showcases bonuses.
- **Strategy 3: Product Demos** [03:21] — Demonstrate how your product works, its benefits, and its use cases. This is especially effective for jewelry, shoes, bags, and cosmetics. Demos can be used in ads, on product pages, and can go viral, especially for innovative products.
- **Strategy 4: Answer FAQs in Videos** [04:41] — Create short educational videos answering common customer questions. Show the product in action and use text overlays to explain key points. Trendy music and captivating titles increase virality and engagement, sending positive signals to the algorithm.
- **Strategy 5: Behind-the-Scenes Content** [06:35] — Show your hands, your workspace, or your creative process. This builds authenticity, trust, and a connection with your audience. It humanizes your brand and tells a unique story, showing the labor behind the product.
- **Strategy 6: Founder-Led Content** [07:36] — The most successful fashion brands have their founders on social media. People connect better with founders. If you're not ready, ask UGC creators or friends to do videos for you, but this is a must-know strategy for every fashion brand.
- **The Ultimate Goal: Serve Your Audience** [08:49] — Your content should serve your audience first, not just promote your products. If they find it valuable, they will follow you for more tips and inspiration. This is the first step in moving them to your website and email list.

### Conclusion

The video concludes that social media success for creative brands hinges on providing value to the audience through diverse content formats, even without showing your face. The ultimate goal is to build a following by serving the audience's needs, which then paves the way for deeper engagement and conversions.

## Transcript

Today's video is about social media strategy and specifically about your content. As a creative person, usually you feel uncomfortable about posting and putting yourself in front of an audience and unknown people.
Feeling judged, you may try to avoid posting at all. And this is where you will experience low engagement on your social media. It's a point of fact today that social media helps us create a relevant audience for our brand.
And this is only in one case if you know how to entertain your audience. You just have them down. Let me show you some examples and good tactics to use for creative people and designers to create engagement with your posts,
and even if you don't want to be on camera. So if you don't want to be on camera, make your products speak for you. But stop! You can't just post pictures of your products. It doesn't work anymore.
So let's explore what works now when you want to show only your products and let them speak for you. Let's dive in. Let's say you have an accessory or jewelry brand. What are the best content tactics to use?
How to? So basically, give advice to your audience on how to wear your creations depending on style. Here you can be on the camera, but without your face. By showing explicitly how to wear your products, you create trust and help your audience to see the value of what you do.
It is one thing to see products on your website and the other to see how to wear it and give them ideas to style them in real life. It works as if you give them a tutorial without you being in front of the camera.
Same, you get used to selling on the markets and photo stores. I know that you see how people react and they buy once they saw your product in action. On your neck, on your hand, or maybe on their neck.
So, this kind of content will replace your speaking and showing and will work for you while you sleep or create. So, the second way to avoid showing your face on camera is to do unboxing.
Unboxing is a way to experience life in a product without being you in front of a camera. Just show a client's experience from receiving your product, taking it out of the box and then seeing how the product is beautiful in your hands.
These kind of videos are easy to create and it works very well as a viral video. The same can be done in the reverse way using packaging your product for a new order You can show all behind the scenes how you prepare each order with love and in a such way creating trust for your future clients After seeing you putting inside other
samples with your product, give an impression of all bonuses that people get from this particular order. It can work well when you have first-person equilibration with a brand and you show how you
package your product with the other brand's product. So people see that by ordering now and today, they get more products inside. So the same can be done, for example, for
special occasions such as Mother's Day, Christmas, Valentine's Day, or back to school, etc. So many occasions to show people the love that you have for them and for your product. The fourth way of avoiding showing your face on camera is a product demo.
Especially if you are in jewelry, shoes, bags, or cosmetics, you can show how your product works. For instance, you can show what benefits a client gets, how someone can wear it or use it, or what benefits they get after applying it.
A product demo is something that your consumer will appreciate a lot because it will help them understand the value, see it in real life and learn something new from your content. These type of reels can be easy viral and you can use them in ads.
You can create it yourself or you can ask an influencer or UGC to create it for you. So each product can have its own demo video. Else the advantage is you can put it on your website, on the product pages and give a product
real aspect while a person is taking a decision to shop from you. A demo can be played a thousand words and you know it. It's easy to make and it will benefit to your future clients, especially if you have some kind of innovation. For instance, it may be plug and play, that an accessories that
are going with your bag or shoes or before and after, if you are in skincare, for instance, or cosmetic industry. So having a demo for each product is beneficial to grow your audience and answer help in shopping decisions.
The fifth way to avoid showing up on camera and still bring value and gain visibility is to answer people's questions in short videos. If you sell online you get used to frequently asked questions Usually a good e website will always have a dedicated page for FAQs But you can create a video educational video explaining how your products work by replying to those questions in a video
You might say, how can I reply without showing my face? Well, it's easy. You just don't show your face. You show your product in action. For instance, as a cosmetic brand, you can show how you apply it on your skin.
and then use captures to explain the main points of your product in a short text. There is no need to show your face. And still, a video can be trendy thanks to the tips that you provided in the text,
but also trendy music that you put on the top of your video. It's the fact that trendy music plus captivating titles help to make your content much more viral and more engaging. People stop scrolling.
They want to read. They want to understand. See what it's about. And then they review your tips. because if it is available, they will try to review the video many times. And what happens if people review your video many times?
Well, it sends good signals to the algorithm saying that your video is engaging and it needs to be shown to more similar people. This is how the algorithm will start working with you and not against you.
Also, many content creators use other people's voices and phrases while they demonstrate their product. It's another way of doing it without you showing up in the video and using your voice.
If you have this, use that. And if you have this, use that. Another way of avoiding you being on camera is showing behind the scenes.
You can show yourself sitting, working, drawing and sewing, but you can also show your hands, your product during a shooting session, or your drawings and how you choose one of them, etc.
The idea here is just to be authentic, trustful, and insightful about your creation process. So people can relate to your life and learn more about your creation process.
This is something that you totally should do to build a story of your brand. But also create connections with people. People would love to know more about you. And this type of content makes you look real to them and help them see your labor behind the brand.
It also shows the value of the product because we offer something singular that we cannot buy elsewhere Showing a human touch behind your brand humanize it and give it a special and unique story that your audience will love
And finally, the last hack, if you don't want to be on camera, but you need to show your style and tips, or how to wear, or tutorials, without you being inside and just showing your product. Well, I won't be lying if I say to you the most successful brands in fashion have their founder on the top of their social media posts.
People connect better with founders. I guess maybe it's the energy stuff. And if you believe in energy and how we transmit our passion to other people through our content, you should start definitely showing yourself in real time tutorials.
Well, I hope it will come with time. Meanwhile, you can ask UGC or your best clients or friends to do videos for you. But this type of video is a must-know in social media and for every fashion brand.
Today, you cannot just post pictures of your last photo shoot. You need to provide people with tips on how to sell your product. You need to personalize it. So the best person who can do it is a content creator.
A content creator who you love and trust. Have one or two of them who will provide you with regular content. You can have a deal with them and offer them, for instance, new products once in a while to send them.
Once you start growing and making money with your brand, you can pay them for the content provided. Just be clear with them on terms of working together for a long-term collaboration. I'm saying that because your content shouldn't be about you or your products.
So it serves, first of all, your audience. If they find your content interesting and valuable, they will stick around and follow you for more tips, more ideas, more inspiration, or just because they like your style and your content.
Following is the first action we expect from our posting. The next thing would be looking for how I can engage with those people and how I can move them to the next level, which is discovering my website and being part of my email list.
Well, this topic would be in my next video. And I totally invite you to watch my next video after this one. Engagement is not about buying only. There are different ways of engagement with a brand on social media.
So I totally recommend you to watch my next video, which is about marketing on social media for fashion entrepreneurs. And I will see you there.
