Transcript

For anyone trying to build a brand around home decor, this is how. This is Eloise. She has this mid century style home that is making waves and she's doing a few things really well that everyone here can learn from. First thing she's doing is these highly shareable iPhone filmed reels. One of the most common ways that people get traction is by having their reels shared in DMs. So she's using these clever hooks that get people that want or relate to that to share share it with their significant other or their friends in DMs. And because of that, it gets pulled into the algorithm, she gets more shares rank account grows. Second thing she's doing great, before and afters. People love to see a story. Showing a visual of before and then after immediately paints that picture. Third, that's really important, she's giving educational tier, like where I got my lamps or pantones you should yes. Because that's taking her from just entertainment to actual education and giving real value to the audience, which makes her a credible resource for something more than just inspiration. And that allows her to work with tons of rank. I counted over 10 in the last couple months. All of which are things that actually fit into her house rank continue to give her audience value. I think home decor content is something that I recommend to every person that loves doing it, because, right now, the world is shifting to buying more and more from trusted sources. So, people like her can have her own storefront on something like TikTok shop and build a legitimate business, all while loving living at home, styling her house. The biggest takeaway for you guys, make content that people want to share in DMs. It's one of the biggest ways that you're going to find growth today. I'm breaking down the art and science of influencers in this account. I do a ton of these. I would love for you to stick around for more.
