Vertical Stories for Promotional Social Media Content

Fiction micro-series for social media that hook audiences, integrate your product naturally, and build anticipation episode after episode.

I develop short, vertical, and sequential stories designed for scroll-based consumption on social media. Their goal is to keep viewers engaged for longer, encourage them to follow the account, and motivate them to return, helping the content reach a wider pool of potential customers.

Why it works for brands

Unlike standalone content, serialized storytelling builds anticipation and creates viewing habits.

When an audience follows a story, they are not just watching a single video—they return to the account to see what happens next.

This positions your product as a solution to a real problem: low audience retention.

How a brand is integrated into the story

Brands can be incorporated into the narrative in different ways:

As sponsors of the series
Through visual identity, including corporate colors and aesthetics
Within narrative contexts aligned with their industry
Or through the organic presence of products or services within the story

Work & Love

Four friends. Four stories. Four dreams.

Four women who run their own businesses try to secure their professional stability while navigating modern relationships, impulsive decisions, and unexpected situations that test both their personal lives and their careers.

Each micro-story follows one of them during a pivotal moment in her life, where work, friendship, and romance intersect and force her to make decisions that change her path.

Key Themes

Independent professional life
Women who make decisions about their careers, manage clients, projects, and responsibilities without relying on others, while striving to maintain both financial and emotional stability.

Modern relationships

Ghosting, unlabeled relationships, digital misunderstandings, and unclear expectations that reflect how a new generation connects and builds intimacy.

Friendship as a support system
The group of friends serves as a space for venting, advice, and confrontation, showing how friendships influence both personal and professional decisions.

Public mistakes and social pressure
Situations that go viral, failed collaborations, difficult clients, and impulsive decisions that affect the protagonists’ reputation and stability.

Realistic emotional growth
The protagonists do not change instantly or in an idealized way; they gradually learn to manage their emotions, set boundaries, and make more conscious decisions as the stories progress.

Short-form stories designed for digital consumption, with concise scenes and a fast pace, created to adapt easily to audiovisual, narrative, or promotional formats.

01. Story

OOPS… I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY BESTIE

This is a contemporary romance that kicks off the Coffee Break Saga, a narrative universe of four interconnected volumes.

Zola Bergstrom is the most famous artisan baker in Azuria Bay, but she doesn't know how to bake her own happiness. She’s spent years in an unbreakable friendship with Thiago Carlsen, the man who left Azuria Bay ten years ago.

When an act of sabotage forces Zola to give away her entire production for three days, her boutique bakery turns into a battlefield. With the help of her three best friends—who are determined to transform her from a demure girl into an irresistible temptation—and Thiago’s unconditional support, Zola tries to save her business and, in the process, win her best friend’s heart.

A viral sabotage, three meddling friends, and a dinner for two that could change everything. Zola will have to decide if she’s staying "just a friend" or reclaiming the love of her life.

Episode 1:

#FreeBread

Zola Bergstrom, a baker obsessed with control and precision, begins her morning with a perfect coffee ritual only to discover that her life has turned into viral chaos. A mysterious deepfake video (or a recording she doesn't remember making) is circulating on Instagram, announcing free bread for three days at her business.

What Zola initially dismisses as a prank from her friends or an algorithm error quickly escalates into a real-life nightmare: an angry crowd surrounds her bakery, drones are filming the scene, and the hashtag #FreeBread is the number one trending topic. The episode ends with Zola in shock, realizing she has been the victim of digital sabotage that has turned her into "the crazy lady giving away bread."

COFFEE BREAK SAGA STORIES

02. A Food Influencer on YouTube

Doutzen Kingswell doesn’t cook for love; she cooks out of pure, physical rage.

After surviving a pandemic locked down with an ex who turned her apartment into a hub of infidelity, Doutzen channeled her disgust into a cooking channel that went viral on social media. What started as therapy turned into Azuria’s most exclusive catering business, built in an ironclad partnership with her three best friends.

But real success comes with risks.

Convinced by her partners, Doutzen enters the most intense reality show on television to win a luxury food truck and protect her empire. What she didn’t expect was that the prize came with a nightmare clause: sharing a two-square-meter kitchen for three months with Allen Tillinghast.

Allen is the most pretentious chef in town, a man who cooks like a god, has a Michelin-sized ego, and thinks Doutzen’s catering is “social media food.”

Three months. A two-by-two space. A woman who swore she’d never trust a man again, and a chef who thinks he’s made of gold.

In the suffocating heat of that tiny rolling kitchen, Doutzen will have to decide what burns more: the stovetop flames or the tension with the man she despises. If you want to discover how they survive a confinement where there’s barely room for their egos, you have to read this novel.

03. Red Flags and Cocktails

Isla Kruger is the aesthetic mind behind Kingswell Catering. An expert at creating breathtaking settings and decorations, Isla lives for beauty… even though her personal life is a chaos of “liquid relationships” and unanswered messages.

For months, Isla has been trapped in Azuria’s most dangerous limbo: a relationship where they’re nothing, yet do everything together. He is Rowan Kontos, the city’s most sought-after and magnetic mixologist. Rowan pursues her, gets jealous, and acts like the ideal partner—until the word “commitment” comes up. Then, her only mantra is “go with the flow.”

Forced to cross paths at the city’s most exclusive elite events, Isla must remain professional while watching Rowan charm other women from behind the bar. She accepted the rules of the game to not lose him, but the bitterness of emotional crumbs is starting to taste worse than any cocktail.

How long can you decorate a lie before it collapses? Isla is about to discover that the thing that destroys most isn’t being overlooked, but waiting to be chosen. In a city of fleeting connections, she will have to decide whether she prefers solitude or a love without a name.

04. A Hater with Wi-Fi

Orla Zey is the mastermind behind the logistics of Kingswell Catering. Cold, efficient, and an expert at spotting men who only know how to orbit, Orla has control over everything… except her neighbor, Gio.

Gio is Azuria’s most arrogant fitness influencer, and to Orla’s misfortune, he’s the coordinator assigned by the prestigious Aethel Center to oversee the largest contract of her career. By day, in the glass offices, they are professional arch-enemies in a war of egos and healthy menus.

But by night, the battle goes digital.

Tired of Gio’s fake perfection, Orla becomes his number one hater on TikTok. Behind a Venetian mask and anonymously, their live arguments go viral. He calls her a “bitter cat lady” who doesn’t dare show her face; she yells back that nobody with a real job and burnout has time for his laboratory-made beauty.

Two enemies in the real world. Two viral rivals in the digital world. When the cameras turn off and the masks come down, Orla and Gio will have to decide whether the hatred they feel is real—or if it’s just the missing ingredient to set the city on fire.
