#1 Research and find the right hashtags


 

Research and find the right hashtags TikTok's algorithm recognizes the hashtag and focuses new viewers from that target group to your video.


By watching trending and well-known TikTok videos, you can understand what kind of content works and what doesn't. Focus on finding hashtags in videos that refer to your business and have gone viral on TikTok. Hashtags are a big influencer in TikTok's algorithm. Typing keywords into video titles and descriptions allows TikTok to start recommending the video to other viewers who have been interested in similar content. This is how you reach new consumers from the right target group. You can easily get started with these hashtags: #smallbiz #smallbusiness #entrepreuneurs

What are your business goals for TikTok?

Any video can suddenly go viral, even the one you least expected. This is why it is important that every video has some kind of activation. Activation can be, for example: hidden advertising of a product or service, following your TikTok channel, sharing a video or something similar.


There are many successful stories on TikTok where companies have raised their brand awareness to millions organically. No social media platform can currently compete with TikTok for the extent of views.


However, don't confuse views with engagement. Many companies on TikTok have bought visibility for their ad, but still the engagement with the videos has been very poor.

Here's a good rule of thumb:

Your TikTok video should have at least 1 like per 10 viewers. Bad campaign:

  • 400,000 impressions

  • 1000 likes

  • 10 comments

  • 0 Sharing

Such a result is not good at all, but still some companies consider this to be a positive result. On the TikTok platform, it is really important to adapt your content and message to different target groups, so that it resonates with users.

A good campaign:

  • 400,000 impressions

  • 40,000 likes

  • 400 comments

  • 40 divisions


If you're starting from scratch, using influencers makes sense. TikTok influencers have grown a loyal following around them, which you can use in your videos.

When the consumer sees a familiar face, he is more likely to watch the end of the video. This has a positive effect on TikTok's algorithm, thanks to which your video is recommended to a larger audience.

What is your competition doing on TikTok?

If your direct competitors are making new content every day on Tiktok and their statistics are positive, then they have found the right audience for their content.


Analyze your competitors and closely monitor their videos that have done well to gather important data.


Under no circumstances do we recommend stealing content. Still, it's really important to study what your competitors are doing well and take inspiration to get started on the TikTok platform more easily. Consider the following:

  • What is their message?

  • How long is their video?

  • How do they present their ideas?

  • How often do they advertise their products?

  • How often do they jump on board with new trends?

The benefits of TikTok for businesses


TikTok is still a really new platform. Your company can take advantage of its pioneering position. Stand out from the competition as a pioneer and reach new consumers from your target group.

  • Increase in brand awareness

  • Engagement of the target group

  • Increasing website traffic

  • Less competition as a pioneer

  • Organic traffic

  • A wider target group

  • Increasing conversion
