Top Tips for Beginner Creators and Influencers
Starting out as a creator can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t need to be. Here are straightforward tips to help you build momentum without overthinking it.
1. Pick one platform to start with
Don’t try to master everything at once. Choose the platform where your ideal audience hangs out and get good at that first.
2. Post more, think less
Your early content won’t be perfect — and it shouldn’t be. You learn by doing, not waiting.
3. Stick to 2–3 content pillars
These could be fitness, fashion, travel, creator tips, parenting, or anything you love. Consistency helps people understand what you’re about.
4. Show your face
People trust people. Even one clip of you talking to the camera can build stronger connection than 20 aesthetic clips.
5. Engage like a human
Reply to comments, join conversations and make genuine connections. Engagement increases your reach and builds community.
6. Use trends wisely
Trends help with visibility, but don’t let them control your content. Mix trending audio with evergreen videos people will always search for.
7. Don’t wait for brands to find you
Tag them organically, create UGC-style content using their products and make your style recognisable. Brands notice consistency and quality long before follower count.
