I feel like every small business owner thought we could slap some reels on Tiktok then take off. But when I approached Tiktok with a Snapchat mindset, which was always more organic than IG, I got soooo much engagement. As a food product business, Instagram wants to see me make the food, and Tiktok wants to see me eat it! It’s all about mindset. And being more organic and less stuffy, which Instagram loves. Like you said “authenticity not aesthetic.”

I'm also getting frustrated with IG. I feel like there so much you have to do to keep up...reels, stories, carousels, post multiple times a day. It's a lot when you are building a business while still working a 9-5

I already been saying I need to post on tiktok. I posted like 5 videos on there and didn't get any followers from it. I was following all these people for nothing it seemed like because I wasn't getting any engagement back in return. Seeing all these positive replies has me thinking I should try again.

I would tell people that I feel like I have to be more aesthetic/perfect on IG and for tiktok I can be my true, sassy self haha! Like it's just more fun. And I like that TikTok doesn't have a heavy focus on having the perfect caption. It takes so much pressure off!

Hey Erin! As someone who does TikTok, KZfaq, Instagram AND a podcast by herself I had to map out which platforms were worth growing first and I absolutely agree with primary platforms being TikTok & KZfaq! I would love to send you my mind map on how I broke each one down with pros and cons of how you can use those platforms to grow others! Also it’s hard as hell making friends as an adult, I have a YT video about it. & still struggle with it lol. Even harder to make real life friends as an adult but keep pushing girl! You’ll find your tribe! 🫶🏽🤍

Thank you for sharing Erin, interesting to hear this feedback, I just got on TikTok a few weeks ago (my new assistant highly recommended it), still getting a sense of the platform, have mixed feelings :). Indeed your feb 9th video was great (just watched it and other videos), and also on TT in-video text often can overlap over description & tags. If you try YT shorts actively, share your experience how they performed vs TikTok and insta.

When marketing in tiktok, be sure to use not only views and following as main metrics to identify market reach, but also engagement rate, as that would complete the story and tell how good your content is and how strong is its reach to its audience (basically content strength) - it is usually calculated manually but to avoid human error and just up reliability in general you may want to use tools such as *phlanx's tiktok engagement rate calculator* or something similar

Seriously...thank you for this! I have been so against TikTok, as it came on strong just as I was teaching pre teens, and my initial reaction to the platform was that it was aimed at this age group ONLY. But, as an entrepreneur, it has been impossible not to see exactly the trend you described of seeing so much TikTok "overflow" coming into my IG feed. So here I am, a 54 year old who laughs at herself when she realizes I should have let my pre teeners show me how to use it back then and I'd be so far ahead of the curve now! LOL
