How do i get started on TikTok

Hi everyone 😊
I was wondering if anyone could please give me some tips on getting started on TikTok and Instagram.
My new employer unexpectedly reduced my hours at the last minute, so I’m struggling a little with bills at the moment and looking for ways to create an additional income.
I’m completely new to content creation, so I’d really appreciate any advice on where to start, what type of content works well, how to grow an account and, eventually, how people make money through TikTok/Instagram.
Any tips or experiences would be really appreciated. Thank you! ❤️

To begin with, pick a genre that you feel comes naturally to you and content creation in that subject, field or niche would be interesting for you. I believe, you already have a good camera phone or else invest in one. Then make videos that are either problem solving or entertaining.Once you figure out your signature style, make videos consistently. Be regular, stay meaningful and true to your self. Once this works, send cold emails, or DM's to brands you feel match your genre and could be potential clients. Track your insights and metrics and share that with them. With these brand collaborations you will be able to earn some living. Well, hopefully. Good luck.

The creator fund money is unfortunatly tiny and takes ages to reach so if bills are urgent i'd treat this as a slow build rather than the fix. money usually shows up sooner from doing it for someone else, a local business page, editing, that sorta thing

For starting tho, i'd pick 1 narrow thing you can make 50 videos about and post daily for a month. the first 20 will probably be bad and thats just the cost of learning the format. i run an account about ai tools and what moved it was showing something happening on screen while i talk over it, way easier than performing at a camera for me at least!

how old are you? what are your interests? whats something u can talk about for hours and never get bored? what kind of content catches YOUR attention?

ugc is probably the fastest money here, that's brands paying you to film short videos they post on their own accounts, so you don't need followers at all, just 2 or 3 sample videos showing you can talk about a product clearly. the tiktok creator rewards money needs 10k followers and videos over a minute, so treat the account itself as a slow build. pick one narrow topic and post the same video to tiktok and instagram reels since it costs nothing extra, you'll see within a few weeks which one gets more views. and skip any paid "creator course", the free youtube stuff covers it.

I'd start by picking one topic you can genuinely make 20 videos about without getting bored. Keep videos simple, hook people in the first couple seconds, and post consistently enough to learn what clicks. TikTok rewards testing way more than perfection. I also recommend spending time actually commenting in your niche. It helps you understand the humor, pacing, and trends without blindly copying people.

What is engagement on LinkedIn?

Everyone talks about "boosting engagement" but nobody actually breaks down what that means practically. Likes, comments, shares, clicks they all count differently and yet most people treat them the same. From what I have seen comments carry the most weight both for the algorithm and for actual human memory. When someone leaves a genuinely thoughtful comment I remember their name way longer than whoever wrote the original post. Is that just me or does anyone else experience linkedIn that way?

Does posting consistently actually matter if the content isn't great?

I’ve always wondered how much consistency really matters compared with simply posting less often but having something genuinely useful or interesting to say. There seems to be a lot of pressure to post every day now. For people who actually manage social accounts, what have you seen work better: posting frequently, or posting only when you have something worth putting out? And has that changed depending on the platform?

How do people add line breaks in TikTok captions

I keep seeing TikTok captions with clean spacing and line breaks, but I can’t figure out how people do it. When I hit the return/enter button, TikTok deletes the line break and smushes everything together. How are creators adding those spaces?

My client was paying for 20 hours and using 9. I almost lost them by saying nothing.

For three months I told myself a quiet client was a happy client. They were on a 20 hour a month retainer. When I finally added up what I had actually done, it came to about 9 hours in September and 8 in August. The posts went out, nothing broke, and I cashed the same check, so I did not look closer. Then their ops person asked on a call, almost as an aside, what the retainer covered again. That question is never really about the list. She could not feel the other 11 hours, so in her head the work had shrunk. I went back through the last quarter and wrote down what was scoped but unused: a monthly report nobody had opened since June, community replies I had quietly stopped doing when approvals slowed down, and a batch of story posts we planned and never shot. Some of that was on me. I had let the slow approval weeks turn into doing less instead of flagging it. So instead of defending the invoice, I brought the list to the next call. I showed the hours they were paying for, the hours they actually got, and three ways to fill the gap with work they had been asking about in passing: reply coverage on weekdays, one short video a week cut from footage they already had, and a simple monthly summary their owner would actually read. They picked two of the three and cut the unused report. Same fee, no discount, and the next month used 18 of the 20 hours. What I took from it: over delivering has a loud problem, you burn out. Under delivering has a quiet one, the client decides you are optional and you only find out at renewal. Now I check the burn rate on every retainer once a month, and if a client is under about two thirds of what they pay for, I raise it myself before they do. How do you catch this on your accounts? Do you track hours against scope, or do you go by deliverables only?

Anyone using Flick Social?!

I use Flick Social for work but lately I've been getting a "lost connection" error. This happens almost weekly. Now, I'm getting an error message that "This app is not accessible right now...". Anyone else having issues? Is there a workaround or am I stuck until Flick gets their act together??
