How To Grow On TikTok Fast (2024 New Algorithm)

Introduction

In this article, I will break down our success with monetizing our audience by creating viral TikToks. Recently, our growth has been phenomenal. We scaled past 50,000 followers on Instagram and over 200,000 on TikTok organically, without using any paid ads. Our TikTok videos amassed 6.2 million views, and on Instagram, we reached 5.3 million accounts, increasing our followers from 177,000 to 186,000 in just one month. This surge has undeniably impacted our business, bringing in numerous new customers who have found us through our viral content.

Hi there, if you’re new, my name is Sam. I’m the founder of Brand Talk, a seven-figure viral creative business specializing in helping food brands achieve viral success and monetize their audience. Today, I'll share three key strategies we’ve employed over the years to go viral and attract customers.

Establishing the Framework for Viral Success

If you are a creator or a business owner, you have probably heard about the importance of giving value first. Many speak about value, but my mentor taught me a boxing analogy that reshaped how I think about value and monetization. In boxing, a fighter doesn't win with a single punch; similarly, you can't monetize your audience with a single piece of content. Think of valuable content as jabs, setting up the conditions to land the right hook.

Before you even attempt to monetize, establish your presence by consistently delivering valuable content. We exemplified this with our content partner, who started in April 2022 with zero followers and grew to over 200,000 followers by posting more than 300 pieces of content. Our revenue saw a significant surge only after posting 60+ pieces of content within the first 2-3 months. The ratio should be around 60:1 – provide immense value first before making any ask from your audience.

The Framework for Monetization

Many creators struggle with finding their niche. The phrase "the riches are in the niches" is accurate but often misunderstood. Here's a framework we used in our business, called the MISS Framework:

  1. Monetization: Plan how to monetize your audience before you start content creation. Knowing your offers upfront allows you to tailor content in alignment with those goals.

  2. Interest: Focus on your passions. Highlight what you can excel at, leveraging your unique experiences to produce content that resonates deeply with your audience.

  3. Scale: Ensure your strategy is scalable. Successful business owners create, test, and refine content without giving up too early. Consistency and adapting based on feedback are key.

  4. Strategy: Develop a unique strategy. Understand when to push and when to hold back. My journey began with restaurant branding and logos. Over time, it evolved into a niche focused on content creation for the food and beverage space.

Content Creation and Audience Engagement

Engagement hinges on capturing attention within the first 5-10 seconds. Investing in quality hooks, akin to cinematic trailers, is crucial. Creative finesses in editing aren't just extras—they're necessities to pull the audience in. We didn’t conform to suggestions that our videos shouldn't be too long; instead, we tested and experimented to find what works. This iterative process, supported by a dedicated creative team, was pivotal for the substantial revenue growth in our business.

Takeaway: Focus on creating content that speaks directly to your audience, entertain them, and consistently measure how well your content resonates. These principles have significantly aided us in growing our creative business and helping many others monetize their content effectively.

In the following videos, we'll delve deeper into the intricacies of making viral videos. Thanks for tuning in, and I hope you have an amazing day!
