Hi fellow Shopify entrepreneurs. Looking to source, digital marketing and social content creator for my activewear apparel brand .. currently in need for Facebook and Instagram. Open to experience with other platforms, such as Pinterest, YouTube, etc.

I tried using Shopify’s partner directory but found that most of the partners are out of the country and potentially pose spam/phishing risk . Plus, there is no way to vet or verify the partners as Shopify clearly stated they Do not endorse any particular one. Any info or referral would be much appreciated :blush:

Hello Alexa @Alexa_RN A good place to find the kind of content creator you are looking for would be on freelance platforms such as Upwork (my personal recommendation) and Fiverr. They’re safer options because you get to use an escrow payment system which means the funds are safer and would only be given to the freelancer when the work is completed.

I started making short behind-the-scenes clips using a 360° camera from store.insta360.com, and it got way more engagement than regular posts. People love seeing the process and unique angles, and it made my brand feel more real. I also used a couple of those shots for thumbnails, and it boosted clicks on my product videos.
