With 3.5 billion downloads and over 150 million users every day in the US, it’s safe to say TikTok is one of the most popular social media platforms in the world.
TikTok’s popularity didn’t happen by chance. With its work-of-art algorithm and opportunities for anyone, even newbies, to gain popularity, TikTok has earned its status as an industry leader.
In this episode, I’m talking all things TikTok. Why it’s my favorite app, why it’s so great for individuals who love video, and how it’s becoming more and more viable as a tool for business owners when they are willing to go the unconventional marketing route.

If social media has taught us anything over these last two years (thanks, TikTok), it’s this. If you get stuck doing what used to work, the only guarantee is that you’ll stay stuck.

As much as you like to find your comfort zone and get in a flow in your business, social media is having none of it! So what’s the solution?
Find out in this episode as I change up my marketing strategy with these four social media experiments.

AI and ChatGPT are taking our jobs!
Those are end-of-the-world vibes some people are putting out there, but diving deeper into all the possibilities of AI, one thing is clear for social media marketers.

In part one of my dive into ChatGPT, let’s discuss what AI really is and look at the good, bad, and limitations of using AI in your business.
And watch out for part two, where we will go all-in on how it can be used to level up your marketing practices.
