Another opportunity to tell your story!

Make your Facebook cover photo… be a video! Here’s a consignment/ resale example or two:

This one’s not of our industry… but imagine the fast-forward technique of you dressing a mannequin or accessorizing a bookcase!

Here’s a how-to article and more info plus great ideas and examples!

Free videos? Of course. If you’re too busy/ distracted/ unclear on the concept, try a freebie.
Maker Moon has some great ones. Take a look at their “Accordion Slider” which to me is SO perfect for resale. 5 captions, 5 models… 5 reasons to choose your shop, whether it’s resale, consignment or thrift, and whether you sell women’s fashion, kidswear, home furnishings or… anything!

Makermoon does other formats too, as in Instagram, Facebook… or blog 🙂 Here’s one I made in a few moments.

Other free sites, other free info, check out Google.
