Day 1: Choose Your Niche
Before you do anything, you need to decide what type of business you want to start. Some of the best niches for faceless brands include:
✅ Digital marketing & online business
✅ Self-improvement & mindset
✅ Wellness & fitness
✅ Spirituality & manifestation
✅ Parenting & relationships
✅ AI automation & tech tools
Your niche should be something you’re interested in, has an audience, and can be monetized.
Day 2: Set Up Your Brand & Social Media Accounts
Even if you plan to sell on Etsy, Shopify, or Gumroad, social media will help drive traffic and sales.
Here’s what you need to do:
✔ Pick a brand name (Use keywords related to your niche)
✔ Create a business email (Keeps everything professional)
✔ Sign up for Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest (Even if you don’t use them all yet, it’s good to claim your brand name)
✔ Optimize your bio (Clearly state what you do & add a link to your freebie or digital shop)

Day 3: Plan Your Content Strategy
Since you won’t be showing your face, content creation is key to growing your audience and attracting buyers.
Types of Content for Faceless Brands:
- Short-form videos: TikTok & Instagram Reels using B-roll footage
- Text-based content: Quotes, tweet-style posts, educational carousels
- Stock video clips & AI voiceovers
To keep your audience engaged, use a mix of educational, inspirational, and promotional content.
Day 4: Batch Your First Set of Content
One of the best ways to stay consistent is to batch-create content in advance. Spend a few hours creating:
✔ 5-10 Instagram Reels or TikTok videos
✔ 3-5 static posts or carousel graphics
✔ 3-5 Pinterest pins to drive traffic to your lead magnet

A business isn’t just about content—it needs to make money. Here are some beginner-friendly monetization options:
Selling Digital Products (E-books, templates, workbooks, social media planners)
Selling PLR/MRR Products (Done-for-you products in niches like wellness, business, or spirituality)
