TicTok, the old people are coming. Yeah let's talk about it stay tuned what's up
guys welcome back to The Jeremy Kersten Show where every episode we talk about
business entrepreneurship investing and personal growth and today we're talking
about the trend that is on tik-tok called the old people are coming or
hashtag over 30 yep that's right tick-tock is getting taken over slowly
but surely by the old people it's bound to happen it's gonna happen it always
happens if you know anything about the history of social media networks and all
the young people are freaking out it's kind of funny you know like they're like
they're in disbelief that the old people are slowly moving on to tick tock okay
but hey news flash like I said this has been going on for a while it started it
really started I think my opinion with MySpace myspace was the first you know
social network that really took off there were some first ones before that
for in stir xanga a couple other ones I'll show you
you know if you can think of it put it down in the comment below but those were
some of the early social networks that were on when I was a teenager and then
myspace came along and I don't I don't know exactly when it was founded but it
started to gain some traction in 2005 right as I was graduating high school
and it myspace had its day for sure right anyways before I get too
distracted I hate long story short all the old people in everyone's parents got
on to MySpace and it was right at the time when Facebook was still I think for
college kids only and it was kind of taken off but already the reason why
it's taken off is because that's where the you know the younger generation were
and they wanted a place to do what they do and talk about what they talked about
without their parents being on their back but eventually same thing happened
to Facebook parents came on board now they were ones grandma's on Facebook
so what happened then all the younger generation went over to Instagram and
then the younger even the younger generation below that even went over to
snapchat pretty quickly kind of I'd say you know before before the Millennials
could really go to snapchat I think the younger kids were in there I don't know
I can't take that back it was sort of simultaneous again my 12 year old
daughter was surprised when I had a snapchat but I told I was like you know
actually I had a snapchat long time ago when the company first came out and but
so I guess they did come younger but you know eventually it's just it's always
where they go that you know the adults always follow the kids or I shouldn't
say the kids with the younger generation because you know the adults are the ones
who create the software they put it out kids are real I don't they have a lot of
time to discover these things to be honest I mean that's how I knew so much
about the Internet as young kid cuz I had a kind of time building web sites
instant messaging aim I mean who remembers that right
ICQ even further back I don't know a few number I seek you but that was a
messaging software way before way before texting was around and all that but so
yeah I mean it's it's it's inevitable to happen if you have it already gotten
tick-tock yourself and you're an adult you don't have to rush over there I mean
it's fun it's kind of like vine it basically is vine but kind of a little
more enhanced is short videos a lot of it is people just dancing to songs and
stuff like that or acting out recorded monologues or dialogues for movies and
films and songs and stuff like that but eventually that will change that's gonna
evolve into something probably more like Instagram where you know you can have
longer format things and it's not gonna be all a bunch of mimicry and mocking
and dancing and stuff like that it'll probably end up turning into another
just regular social network people sharing what they're eating for
breakfast I mean it's bound to happen it does always eventually so I just kind of
wanted to share my thoughts on that I think it's really hilarious that's kind
of why the point of Megan's like I said my twelve-year-old daughter
is literally in disbelief that I have a ticked-off and she asked me last night
and she's like you have like a page and everything and I was like yeah and she's
like let me see your page I showed her my page she was like oh my god
she was like you know her world is ending now because the adults are coming
into tick-tock right you know I think parents need to be and watching with her
kids are kind of looking at all the time anyways my time browsing dick talked
already in a few days I've seen a lot of stuff they're like wow I hope my
twelve-year-old isn't seeing this you know it's you know so some of it can be
a little I guess distasteful or inappropriate you know but hey I don't
know you gotta do what you gotta do and raise good kids but I don't wanna die
grass you know one thing I should mention real quick before I let you go
is that the organic reach on tik-tok is extremely incredible and what I mean by
that is like just posting something without having to pay for promotion
through like you know like similar Instagram or Facebook or whatever the
amount of eyes that just see it naturally is way bigger than other
platforms right now and let me just kind of explain why right this will make a
lot of sense it's because a lot of people are flooding over there to go
check it out it will look what's going on but there's not as many near as many
people willing to put out content right now on there because like I said a lot
of its dancing and mocking and like that kind of takes some courage to do that to
put yourself out and whatever you know um and so if you do put out something
anything doesn't have to be a weird dance it doesn't have to be one of those
you know mimicking videos just putting on any kind of content is gonna be seen
by a ton of eyes there are people on tik-tok right now who you know just a
couple of videos ago and like I'll talk about when I say videos I mean like 10
second 15 second 30 second videos whoo couple of weeks ago put out you know or
have zero followers they put out five to twelve videos and then all of a
sudden they have and some examples millions of followers or hundreds of
thousands of followers and for you to get hundreds of thousands of followers
on Instagram for example is extremely hard extremely hard like to get hundreds
of thousands of followers really on Instagram yes it's extremely employment
almost impossible I mean I think the rock you know might have something like
that cuz he's an actor and things like that but just to be a kid in your room
or an adult with a business you know that he's trying to get a message out
there the organic Reach is tremendous right now at this moment November 2019
on tik-tok so that's just something you
should take for food for thought you know if you want if you're trying to
find a place to get your message out there I hope this video was extremely
