Smartphone, $1,500. Laptop, $2,500.
Latest haircut, $300. Being an early adopter on TikTok:
priceless. So,
you want to be one of the first mover and shakers on TikTok,
but you have no idea what videos to actually post,
especially as a business owner so that you actually grow your business. Well,
you're in luck because in today's video I'm sharing with you five TikTok videos
that you can create for your business to actually grow it.
And stay tuned until the end where I'm going to share an embarrassing dance
video of myself.
So the first type of TikTok video you can create for your business is what I
call Yup, Nope. Let me show you an example.
Nope, Yup, Nope, Yup,
Nope, Yup, Nope, Yup.
So the idea here is you go ahead and film yourself doing the yup, nope thing.
And then on screen you pop up text where you're saying yes or no to certain
things about your world.
Now of course you're not going to make it all about business.
Make some of it personal too.
But this video is a great way for people just to get to know you a little bit
more. I've made my very own Yup, Nope video, so check it out.
No, Yup, no, yup, no, yup, no, yup.
The second type of TikTok you can make for your business is what I'm calling the
before and after story. So it's pretty straight forward.
You're just going to film yourself alongside a song that you really like.
And then using the text on screen,
you're going to illustrate what your life was like before your business and what
it's like after. So I found an example, and this is what it looks like.

So the idea with this one is for your followers to get to know you in 15 to 30
seconds, like we're talking really succinct. That's the whole point of TikToks.
So you really need to distill your story down quickly.
So one to two sentences of where you were at before and then the transformation
that you've experienced because of your business, your product, your service,
whatever it is that you're offering. I gave this one a shot.
So here's my example.
The third type of TikTok is called get to know me. However,
this one's a little bit more like answering a common misconception that people
have about you or your business.
So if there's a question you get all the time or there's a common belief that
people have about you that's wrong.
This type of TikTok is perfect for you to set the record straight.
Here is an example of the get to know me TikTok.
[music]
And of course I've made my own version of this TikTok.
So go ahead and watch this and get to know me.

The fourth type of TikTok for your business is jumping on what's already
trending. You might not know this,
but there is a discover page on TikTok similar to the explore page on Instagram.
So I recommend pulling up your TikTok,
hitting the discover tab and check out what hashtags are trending.
So right away I see something called maple syrup day could be really relevant
for me as a Canadian.
There's also a hashtag called morph and that's a trending challenge.
So it looks like people are blending their pictures together to show their
transformation. There's another one called holiday covers, never zero.
Not sure what that is, but let's look into any one of them.
Let's check out morph,
and I can see that this hashtag has 42 million views.
So let's check out this Ariana morph and just to get an idea,
[music]
So it's pretty straight forward.
There's obviously a feature built into TikTok called morph that allows you to
mesh your photos together. So this may not really be an explicit,
you know, invitation to your business,
but it just might show your evolution as a human.
Maybe you can throw a few business-y pictures in there,
but really the point of this one is just to jump on the trending hashtags so
that maybe your TikTok goes viral. I, of course,
jumped on one of these trending hashtags, and this is the TikTok I made.
[music]
The fifth TikTok you can make for your business is just a fun dance video
because let's be honest,
TikTok is heavily about the entertainment and if you're really going to be a
TikTok user, you should be creating TikToks that are just for fun.
They can't all be about business.
So if you're ever looking for dance inspo just head to the home on your TikTok
app and you're going to see so many trending dance videos and hopefully one of
them inspires you.
[music]
I've seen so many from a solo dance performance to a partner dance performance.
Some of mine are called ride it and coincidance and I'm going to show you an
example of that one right now.
[music]
And of course I can't finish this video about TikTok without creating my own
funny dance video on TikTok. So go ahead and check out my coincidance.
