Affiliate Marketing Video Without Showing Your Face - Invideo Review
One question I get very often is "Is it possible to do affiliate marketing without showing my face and using my voice?"... or "Where can I find free online video editing software to promote my business"?
Well... I started to crawl the web to see if other affiliate marketers were using that strategy to promote their products and services.
I found many.
Most of them are performing product reviews using videos, music, and voice-over (sometimes using their own voice, sometimes using AI voices).
But in order to get good video quality, you must already have strong video editing skills.
Not everyone has that skill and not everyone can afford expensive video editing software.
The free video editing software available offer limited options or are very complicated to understand.
I found an online video editing software that offers a completely FREE plan. Of course, I won't lie to you, their free plan has some limitations. But, after testing for half a day, I was able to make good videos with the free plan. Yeah... you will see a watermark logo in your videos unless you subscribe to their paid plan.
Here's an example of what I made... sorry I'm not very talented and creative :). But hey... I made this in less than 15 minutes
Let me introduce you to Invideo
Invideo is an online video creation and editing application. Its main focus is to help you build high-quality videos with nice transitions, nice effects, and most importantly, sounds and music
It also offers text-to-video conversion and text-to-speech with its integrated AI with female, male, and even teenager (kid) voices.
Honestly, it's a great app. You can do a lot with their free plan even if there are some limitations to what you can store on the cloud and with the annoying watermark appearing in each video.

Pros and Cons
PROS
The free Plan offer is generous
Intuitive and user-friendly interface
Easy to use
Great choice of images and video clips
Build a team of creators inside one account
Multiple clip transitions are available
Walkthrough Tutorials
CONS
The watermark in the free plan is very visible...in color and quite big
Text to Video is not super accurate, sometimes the video clip that is proposed is not related at all to your text. You must go back and change that video clip.
The best images and video clips are from iStock which means that they will have a watermark if you are not on a paid plan.
Preview of your video will sometimes be buggy...not showing really what the final result will show once exported to Mp4... If that happens, you must simply edit your clip section... and resave it. It should fix the problem. But if you already exported your video, it will count as one export in your 60 thresholds.
Even though Invideo says that the music clips are royalty-free, they are sometimes flagged by Youtube as "Copyright Claims"
Conclusion
Even if you are using the FREE plan, it's possible to create very nice-looking and professional videos.
Give it a try, you have nothing to lose.
You will be impressed by what you can achieve with Invideo
