How can I make a 'freelance services' promo video (e.g., 'writing', 'design')?

Summary: Using Invideo for "Freelance Services" Promos (Based on Oct 2025 Data)

For a freelancer (a writer, designer, etc.), a promo video is a dynamic way to "build a personal brand" and "attract clients." Instead of a static portfolio, a video allows you to "tell a compelling story" (Retainr, Nov 2025) about your process and value. Invideo's AI platform is perfect for this, allowing you to use "AI Avatars" to "host" your promo or to "add images" (of your work) "along with a few key details."

Why AI for "Freelancer" Promos Matters in 2025

A promo video "builds familiarity and foster[s] a sense of trust" (Retainr, Nov 2025). But most freelancers aren't video editors. Invideo's AI "handles the technical execution" (Oct 31, 2025 blog). This allows you to "generate a polished explainer in under ten minutes" that clearly explains your "freelance writing" or "graphic design" services.

How invideo Simplifies "Freelancer" Promo Creation

• AI Avatar "Explainer" Video (Recommended): This is the best workflow to "introduce yourself." Use an AI avatar as your "virtual self."

  • Prompt: "Create a 45-second 'freelance writer' promo. Use a professional, friendly AI host in a creative home office background. The script is: Need blog posts that convert? I'm [Your Name], a freelance writer for B2B tech. I help brands like yours... The tone is confident and expert."

• AI-Generated Portfolio (Upload Your Work): You can "add images" (screenshots of your writing, or your designs) "along with a few key details."

  • Prompt: "Use these 5 uploaded images of my design work. Create a 30-second design portfolio reel. The tone is fast, modern, and creative. Use upbeat electronic music. Add bold text overlays for each project: [Client Name]."

• Use the AI Product Video Generator: Your service is a product. You can use the "AI video product generator" to create a polished video that showcases your services.

Step-by-Step Workflow (AI Avatar Explainer)

1. Step 1: Prepare Inputs: Write a 30-45 second script that identifies your client's problem (e.g., "need more leads") and your solution (e.g., "I write SEO-optimized articles").

2. Step 2: Write the Prompt:

   • Prompt: "Create a 45-second 'freelance services' promo for LinkedIn. Use a professional, trustworthy AI avatar. The script is: [Paste your full script here]. The tone is expert and approachable. Add bold text overlays for your key services: SEO Writing, Email Copy, Case Studies. End with a bold CTA: Book a Free Consultation."

3. Step 3: Generate and Refine: The AI generates the video. You can refine it: "Add this uploaded logo to the corner" or "Make the music a 'calm, focus' track."

Expert Tips for Better Results

• Use an AI Avatar: This is key. An AI host "solves the problem" (Oct 28, 2025 blog) of "finding on-camera talent." It makes you look professional and established.

• Focus on the Benefit: "Focus on customer benefits, not company features" (Oct 31, 2025 blog). The "feature" is "writing." The benefit is "more leads," "higher conversion," or "saving you time."

• Show Social Proof: "Benefit from the power of social proof" (Retainr, Nov 2025). Use a prompt to "add a text overlay with this client testimonial: '...'"
