In today's episode, I talk with Helen (@frownies 300k), a content creator and key player at Frownies, a family-owned brand with a unique history dating back to 1889. Frownies, known as the original wrinkle patches, offers natural alternatives to Botox and has gained a significant following on both Instagram and TikTok.

We dive into how she uses social media for more than just sales, emphasizing the importance of creating genuine connections through DMs and comments. Helen also explains her approach to managing different content styles across Instagram and TikTok, the impact of viral videos on brand visibility, and the role of community engagement in sustaining audience loyalty.
