Have you ever sold something online or in person? Share an example, big or small. Talk about what you learned from that selling experience
I haven't really sold anything physical; however, I have experience giving out flyers for Uber Eats, so I understand how to get people to engage with a product. I learned that you need to quickly observe the person and naturally persuade them to see why they would want your product, or flyer, in this case. By observing them, you can pick out details such as their shirt to complement and connect to your product or flyer. For example, the flyer was for a discount on Uber Eats. So, I handed them out at my college campus near the dining hall that no one really loves. I said, if you use this discount, you can order food instead of going to the dining hall if you are in a rush between classes.

What's your video creation process? How do you usually get your inspirations?
I like to use the seasons or holidays as my inspiration. I like to set the scene for a product so that it is more appealing. For example, I would use high-quality lighting, decorations for the season, and match the product with my clothes. My inspiration usually comes from trends. People love to see couples, especially gay men. So, with flowers, I would give them to my boyfriend and create a cute, seasonal-themed video about it. I always get him flowers, but flowers that are beautiful from Lasting Brilliance will make him have a genuine happy reaction, making a great video.

Tell me about a piece of content you made that got more engagement than usual. What do you think made it successful?
One piece of content that was successful was a video showing off my record collection. It was successful because it engaged with people my age, relating a popular tiktok sound to a topic we like, Taylor Swift. It got around 40 thousand likes. I understand what hashtags and sounds to use to get more people to engage. I also understand trending content. Here is the video: https://www.tiktok.com/@lanaismymotheryes/video/6978633457064840453
