About TikTok

TikTok is a video sharing and live streaming application designed to help users create and edit videos, manage recordings, broadcast live streams and more. The app started as Musical.ly, which was a lip-syncing app that allowed users to create short music videos. In 2017, Musical.ly rebranded as TikTok and launched new features including a wider range of filters and effects for videos as well as the ability to customize the length of each video clip, instead of only being able to record 15 seconds or less.

The application's main feature is its ease of use. It can be accessed with just one tap on your phone so you can quickly record and post videos without having to download anything else. With just a few taps you can also share your videos on other social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram.

A great platform for exponential rewards, but beware of time

4

Overall, I've started using TikTok exclusively for work and It's immediately clear the potential it has. It takes time and dedication to produce content and understand what works and what doesn't. It's an amazing tool or organic growth, if done correctly. Beware, it's easy to get distracted into doomscrolling while you work.

Pros:
It's a great tool to use for business, to grow your business. It requires lots of commitment and basic skills, but the rewards of organic growth are by far the best. The best thing is that it's free. You can start, experiment, understand what works and go viral for free. Great for B2C mostly, but also B2B if done in the correct way
Cons:
It takes a little bit of learning to understand what works and what not. If you're a professional, sometimes you have to tone down the level of communication by way more than you'd expect. Virality trends are always changing and you need to "scroll" a lot to see what works and what sticks. Easy to waste time by blending work and entertainment

Reasons for choosing TikTok

Organic growth is much more powerful. Target audience is mostly on TikTok nowadays.

TikTok support is a joke

1

My account with almost 10k got hacked on 2/11. I sent support tickets in and heard nothing from support. On 2/18, I got back into my account on my own because I had set up a passkey for TikTok studio. I changed all the hackers info back to mine and started posting again. I even posted a video about my experience and how I got my account back by myself. On 2/27, I went to open TikTok and got a message that my account was locked and asked by support to confirm information to verify that it was me. I immediately responded with the information. I am really trying to build my account [sensitive content hidden] and it is so disheartening to now be locked out of that account for the second time in a month for multiple weeks with no response from support. If you know anything about the TikTok algorithm, it pushes videos out when you post frequently and consistently so this experience has hurt my growth on that app. I also do TT shop on that account so to not have access to it is limiting financial opportunities. I still have heard nothing from TikTok support. For an app with millions of users, please put some of the money you make into your support team because I am extremely dissatisfied with my experience on this app.

Pros:
Surprisingly valuable finance and tax-related content. Great platform to share accounting tips in a simplified, engaging way. Helps reach younger audiences with financial literacy.
Cons:
A lot of misinformation around tax and finance topics. Algorithm favors trends over credibility. Can be a distraction if not used with clear boundaries.

Reasons for choosing TikTok

I chose TikTok because it offers a unique combination of creativity, engagement, and virality that other social media platforms don’t quite match.

User friendly tool to reach large audience

5

Overall, I think TiKTok is a simple and easy to use tool that allows it's userbase to upload videos for marketing purposes. The interface is clean and straight forward and has a low learning curve. It's easy for someone to learn, even with limited exposure and aptitude for social media platforms. With solid content, a user can reach a large audience very quickly. I would like to see more enhanced analytics, but overall, it's a great tool.

Pros:
I enjoyed the ease of uploading video content for my small business and the ease of reaching a large audience.
Cons:
The analytics seem to be limited and could offer more potential here. This is especially helpful for small businesses tracking data with relation to their audience's response and success when trying different types of content.

Reasons for choosing TikTok

TikTok is a platform based on short videos and reels and has a huge userbase that allows for a large opportunity to go viral and reach a larger audience than any other platform on the market today.
