TikTok Marketing: What Works and What Doesn’t
Authenticity is gold.
People can spot a fake from miles away.
When I asked her the secret behind her most viral videos, the answer was simple: Be yourself.
Authenticity resonates with audiences.
Quality over quantity.
In a recent study, videos with higher production value had a 60% better engagement rate than those hastily put together.
Do’s and Don’ts for the TikTok Novice
- DO interact with your audience.
Reply to comments, engage in trends, and create content that asks for user interaction.
- DO NOT neglect analytics.
Here’s a number for you: Brands that actively track and adjust their strategies based on TikTok analytics see a 70% increase in engagement within the first month.
- DO understand the algorithm.
TikTok rewards creativity, engagement, and relevance. The more aligned your content is with your audience’s preferences, the more TikTok will push it.
- DO NOT go silent.
Consistency is key. Even if it’s just a few times a week, keep your content flowing.
A Goldmine of Opportunities for Brands
Considering 63% of TikTok users are between 10 and 29, it’s a goldmine for brands targeting Gen Z and young millennials.
And the potential ROI?
A 2022 study indicated that brands active on TikTok had a 50% higher recall rate among viewers than other social platforms.
