Faceless Instagram accounts are gaining popularity, and many people are successfully making sales without ever showing their faces or even using voiceovers! If you’re an introvert, busy with kids, or simply don’t have the time to prepare for Instagram Reels daily, this strategy might be perfect for you.
In this blog, I’ll walk you through the steps I used to create my own faceless Instagram account, which has helped me sell digital products. You can also watch the full video on my YouTube channel here for more tips and in-depth insights.
Let’s dive into the process of creating your faceless Instagram account that sells!
1. Pick a Niche
The first and most important step in building your faceless Instagram account is choosing the right niche. I recommend going with evergreen niches that will always be relevant, such as:
- Personal Development
- Health & Wellness
- Business & Finance
- Creative Skills
Ask yourself what you’re passionate about and what skills you already have. Leverage these to create valuable digital products like templates, guides, or online courses. By sharing your expertise, you build trust and authenticity with your audience. This is exactly how I began my faceless Instagram journey.

2. Pinpoint a Pain Point and Create Your Digital Product
Once you’ve chosen your niche, identify a specific problem your target audience is struggling with. Create a digital product that offers the solution they’ve been looking for. This could be anything from a comprehensive guide to a helpful template.
Additionally, consider creating a lead magnet that is both valuable and attractive. Offering a freebie in exchange for an email address helps you build a loyal community around your product.
3. Create Your Instagram Account
Now, let’s set up your Instagram account! Here are the key elements to focus on for a compelling Instagram bio:
Introduce Yourself: Create a catchy name or persona that reflects your brand and niche. For example, you might call yourself The Budget Savvy Chef or The Productivity Wizard.
Highlight Your Value: Briefly explain how your digital products solve problems for your audience. Focus on benefits, not features.
Use Keywords: Incorporate niche-specific keywords to help people find your account. For example, “time-saving tips” or “templates to conquer your day.”
Call to Action: Guide your visitors by telling them what to do next. This could be directing them to your website, landing page, or even a link tree.
Keep it Short and Sweet: You only have 150 characters, so make every word count. Use line breaks and emojis to keep it visually appealing and easy to read.
Example Bio:
Helping you conquer your day with time-saving templates! 📝 Download your FREE planner now! ⬇️ Link in bio.
Where to Sell: You can sell your products on platforms like Shopify, Gumroad, or Etsy, or use a link-in-bio tool like Stanstore, Linktree or Milkshake to guide users directly to your product.
I personally use a Payhip store on my faceless Instagram account, and it works great! Don’t forget to keep your bio fresh by regularly updating it with new products or promotions.
4. Content Creation for Instagram Reels
Content is key to any Instagram strategy, and Reels are your best friend when it comes to getting noticed. Reels can help push your content to new audiences and bring in fresh leads. Here are some tips for creating high-impact Reels:
What to Post: You can create Reels from high-quality images, videos, or even screen recordings. Free resources like Canva, Pixabay, or Unsplash are great for this. You can also record everyday tasks, like making coffee or walking, to keep things simple.
Text Overlay: Your Reels should include text that grabs attention. Use a hook, provide value, and finish with a clear call to action. This can be as simple as “Learn more in the caption” or “Download your free guide in bio.”
Trending Music: Music helps your Reels stand out, so don’t forget to add trending tracks to grab attention.
