Run a photographer's video clips, DM sales and support with Muse
A photographer reportedly uses Muse to cut long videos into captioned Instagram Reels, convert DMs into course sales, and handle customer service and refunds. ·
Done withMeta Muse
- What they did
- A photographer who has long sold photography courses online uses Muse for three jobs. It chops his long-form videos into clips, adds captions, and posts them to Instagram as Reels. It answers inbound DMs and steers them toward course purchases. It also handles customer service, including support issues and refunds. The source gives no setup details.
- How it went
- Several Reels passed a million views, and AI-handled DM conversations brought in several tens of thousands of dollars in sales he says he couldn't otherwise have converted. This is a secondhand account with no further detail.
- Worth knowing
- The source doesn't cover setup, cost, or how Muse is configured, and it is a friend's secondhand report, so treat the results as unverified.
