If you’re feeling challenged by coming up with engaging reel ideas, you are not alone! When our clients start working with us, it’s often a top request… Will you help us with reels?
Answer: Yes! We provide each of our clients with personalized reel prompts to spark creativity. Tackling the idea generation is half the battle. We can’t always help with the filming itself, but we’re always coming up with fresh, effective reel ideas to pass along. And once the filming is done, we take care of the editing!
Over the years, we’ve noticed that some reels perform consistently well across various industries. These ideas work for almost anyone because they connect with audiences and inspire engagement. Here’s a list of our best-performing reel prompts that you can use to jump-start your content:
1. Share a Quick Tip
What’s a quick, actionable tip your audience can put to use today? Keep it simple, useful, and directly related to your service or product. This type of content is not only helpful but also positions you as a guide in your field.
2. Celebrate a Win
What’s a recent win, either for you or one of your customers? Be specific! Sharing victories humanizes your brand and allows your audience to celebrate alongside you.
3. Behind-the-Scenes: A Day in Your Life
Give your audience a peek into your day by filming short 3-second clips of your behind-the-scenes moments. Whether it’s prepping for a meeting, packaging products, or grabbing coffee before diving into work, these snippets can be pieced together into a reel. BONUS: add a trending audio in hopes to get more eyes on it.
4. Why Are You Passionate About What You Do?
Tell a personal story that highlights why you’re passionate about your work. Sharing this insight can deepen the connection and relate with your audience.
5. How Did You Get Started?
Everyone loves an origin story. Share how you began your journey, but remember, you’ve only got 90 seconds—so keep it focused and skip the unnecessary details. Highlight the key moments that shaped you.
6. A Story of Transformation
What’s a powerful transformation you’ve witnessed in your work? This could be your own transformation or a client’s success story. Sharing moments likes these can inspire a potential customer to take action. Plus, it shows the impact your work can have on others.
