Does posting “educational” content help if you’re selling a simple product?
Posted by •11/7/2025
I'm selling a pretty simple household product. No crazy niche.
People say post educational content, but what am I educating? Feels forced.
Is it better to just post problem/solution demos instead of trying to act like a teacher?

I tried “educational” posts and got like 3 likes.
Then I posted a 9-sec demo and got 40k views.
People don't want lessons, they want results.

Problem/solution demos are basically education anyway.
Just don't make it boring. Make it a real moment.
Like: "watch this stain disappear" works better than "here are 5 tips".

“Educational” doesn't mean classroom.
It can be:
- myths (“stop doing X, it makes it worse”)
- comparisons (“why this fails vs this works”)
- guides (“how to get result Y in 30 seconds”)
For a household product, your education is usually: the correct way to solve the problem.
Then your product becomes the tool.
