Combine a stationary video on the first slide with a direct call-to-action to "hold the dots and scroll." This encourages users to rapidly scrub through a series of nearly identical photos, creating an interactive stop-motion effect that builds anticipation for a final reveal video on the last slide.
Design a carousel where a shape or word, filled with a static texture matching the background, moves slightly on each slide. The object is only discernible when a user rapidly scrubs through the slides. This gamifies discovery and can be paired with a DM automation keyword to drive leads or sales.
Prompt an AI image generator like ChatGPT to create visual representations of common stereotypes within your industry (e.g., "a stereotypical real estate agent"). This creates funny, relatable, and shareable content by holding a mirror up to your niche, as long as it's done in good fun and avoids negativity.
Leverage the virality of engagement announcements by creating a two-slide carousel. The first slide shows you on one knee, creating anticipation. The second slide subverts expectations by revealing you are "proposing" to an object relevant to your niche (e.g., a squat rack for a fitness creator), generating humorous engagement.
