Step-by-Step Guide
Choose your platform and format
Different platforms need different content. Instagram loves polished lifestyle shots, TikTok wants authentic UGC-style content, Facebook works with both. Plan your content mix.
Generate lifestyle images
Use AI to create lifestyle images showing your product in aspirational settings. These perform 3x better than plain product shots on social media.
Create UGC-style content
User-generated content converts best. Use our AI avatar tools to create realistic UGC-style videos and images that feel authentic, not corporate.
Design for the platform
Instagram: 1:1 or 4:5 ratio. TikTok: 9:16 vertical. Facebook: 1:1 or 16:9. Our tools export in all standard social media sizes.
Create variations for testing
Generate multiple versions to A/B test. Different backgrounds, angles, and styles. Social algorithms reward variety and testing helps you find winners.
