Okay. Brands have to stop doing this on TikTok. It unfortunately is a losing strategy. I have not seen it work well. And they do this because they're looking for scalable ways to create content. And there's this belief that it's purely just numbers game that if you create enough content, eventually, something will go viral. And here's the idea. As someone who has a pretty solid brand account on TikTok and have worked with companies like this to create very high performing content, you cannot hire a bunch of different creators to generate various pieces of content for you that you just post on your account. What you can do is engage them to create content on their account or hire one dedicated creator for your account. But accounts that have one creator here, another creator here, another creator tier, and this brand has 80,000 followers and none of their content is performing well, and you've just stopped thinking of the TikTok account as a kind of disconnected series of content where you can just try a million different styles and a million different creators because your account is not going to perform all that way. You need to have some strategy in place in terms of the type of content you're gonna create. You need one dedicated creator or it can be your internal team. It can be a cast of creators that kind of rotate through, but having all these one off hits, the videos don't do well. You don't signal to TikTok that your account that makes high quality content, they suppress your reach. It's a mistake and it's much better to just get strategy in place and figure out the type of content you're gonna create. It takes a little bit more of a lift upfront, but it's gonna pay off tremendously.
