If your business offers a service or a product that can be used in a variety of ways, create a tutorial or tip video to help people get the most out of it. This can be a great way to educate your audience, build trust and give them a reason to keep coming back.

The trick to success on TikTok is to give people a reason to follow you. We recommend following three themes; videos that entertain, inform or provide comedic value perform best. However, your top pinned videos on your profile should showcase who you are and what you offer so that when users land on your page they can quickly see what they can expect from you.
Top Tip: Posting as regularly as you can will help grow your following. TikTok recommends 2 to 3 posts per day, however consistency is key with all social media platforms, if you can only share one per week, start with that and build from there.
