“People buy from people” – and there’s no better way to show the human side of your business than with Meet the Team content on social media. Whether you’re a team of 2 or 200, giving your audience a peek behind the scenes builds trust, boosts engagement, and makes your brand more relatable.
Here’s how to make your Meet the Team posts stand out, with fun questions and creative video tips to get everyone involved – even the camera-shy ones!
Why “Meet the Team” Content Works
- Builds Connection: Customers love to see the real people behind a business.
- Strengthens Brand Personality: Whether you’re laid-back or high-energy, show it off!
- Boosts Engagement: Personal content often gets more likes, comments, and shares.

- How long have you worked here?
- What’s your favourite part of the job?
The Fun Stuff
- Tea or coffee?
- What’s your go-to karaoke song?
- If you were an emoji, which one would you be?

- Favourite lunch spot or snack drawer essential?
- If you could swap jobs with anyone for a day, who would it be?
The Unexpected

- First concert you ever went to?
- What’s something on your bucket list?
- If your life was a movie, who would play you?
- What’s the most used app on your phone (be honest!)?
How to Use Video to Bring Meet the Team Post to Life
Video adds energy and authenticity. Here’s how to make it easy and effective:
1. Quickfire Question Reels
Record 30–60 seconds of each team member answering fun questions. Keep it fast-paced and informal – great for Reels, TikTok, or Stories.
2. Day in the Life
Have a team member vlog their day – from their morning coffee to what they’re working on. Use speed-up clips, voiceovers, or text overlays to make it engaging.
3. This or That
Set up a video quiz with choices like “Dog or cat?”, “Email or call?”, “Early bird or night owl?” and get teammates to point or choose on camera.
4. Blooper Reels
Everyone loves behind-the-scenes laughter. Compile the outtakes into a short video to show your team’s personality and sense of humour.

Top Tips to Get Everyone Involved in Meet the Team content
- Make it optional – don’t force camera-shy team members, but encourage them by keeping it low-pressure and fun. You may want to consider a social media company policy that allows people to opt out – this way, you know exactly who would want to take part and who wouldn’t.
- Keep it casual – no need for fancy setups; a phone camera and natural light work just fine.
- Use templates – write out your questions in advance so everyone knows what to expect.
- Batch film – dedicate an hour to film several videos at once for easy future content.
