Of course, business owners understand this concept, yet how to get customers to hyper-focus on their brands is difficult. After all, there are sooooo many social media platforms to choose from. At times, it may seem impossible to know which ones will best meet your business goals. Start with the wildly popular social media platform Tik Tok. Here are our top three tips on how to create a TikTok for your business and why.


1. What is Tik Tok?

Tik Tok is a short-form, video-sharing app that allows users to create and share 15 - 60 second videos on any topic. First known as Musical.ly in 2016, the app was bought out by the Chinese company ByteDance two years later. Since then, Tik Tok has become the fastest-growing social media platform in the world.


In 2021, Tik Tok has skyrocketed in popularity with about 400 million viewers checking out the app every...single...day! That's a lot of eyes! (AKA potential customers for your business.) Here's what you can post:

  • Behind the scenes footage of you creating a product you sell

  • An informational video explaining one of your services

  • New product or services launches

REMEMBER: Tik Tok is still rising in popularity with no end in sight. Go for it!


2. How to Make a Tik Tok Account

It only takes a few minutes to create a Tik Tok account. First, download the app on your phone (of course!). Once that's done, take these next steps.

  1. Tap the profile button in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

  2. Tap 'Sign up' with Phone or Email' to create the account

  3. Use the scroll wheels and follow the prompts to finish

Note that TikTok has built-in video editing tools to help you create dazzling creations unique to your brand. Unleash your creative juices during the process. Have fun with it. The more sizzle your videos have, the better chances you capture more eyeballs.
