Part 2: 4 Types of Videos and 3 Types of Pitches for your Trial Reels.
📹 Not all video content is created equal and your feed knows it.
If you’ve been rotating through Reels hoping something sticks, this is your sign to stop guessing and start testing with a system.
My latest deep-dive breaks down the 4 types of video content that consistently perform in Instagram Trial Reels:
Talking Head
B-Roll
Tutorial and
Storytelling
Plus the 3-Pitch System that lets you build trust AND drive conversions without burning out your audience.
The data doesn’t lie:
Tutorial videos are hitting 78-85% completion rates.
Talking Head videos are generating the highest profile click-throughs.
