The best and most fun way to grow your account on TikTok is to engage with other creators. If you have the opportunity to collaborate with other tiktokers is a fantastic strategy to speed up the growth of your account.
When you both post a video, you get engagement for both of you. So, you double the chance of one of the videos going viral and really taking off.
But even if you post the same video on two accounts, even if it doesn’t go crazy, you still get more exposure. If your friend will post it, you get exposure from their audience and they’ll get exposure from your audience. It’s a fantastic way to collaborate and create videos.
There’s also a great way to establish relationships so you can create new friends and connect with people and also a good way to grow your audience.
If you can find somebody that has a bit more followers than you, that’s a few steps ahead of you in terms of growth, you can bridge the gap quicker by collaborating on videos.
You can either reach out to the person directly and then meet with them or you could also do meet-ups and conferences with multiple creators. There are not as many of them for TikTok as they are on other social media.
For example, there are plenty of conferences and meetups that happen on Facebook and Instagram or even Snapchat and Twitter.
It’s already starting to happen on TikTok as well, and they will be more frequent in the future. Especially in bigger cities, creators like to get together and build friendships, create content together.
So depending on what’s your location, you could use an app or website like Meetup and you can see if there are any relevant meet-ups in your area.
You can create one and see if you can get other content creators together, create new friendships, and then do collaborations and create content.
Another great way to interact with fellow creators is to actually watch and engage with their content. Like their videos and comment, but in a meaningful way. Leave good suggestions, useful ideas. Get their attention first and then you can write them a message.
Of course, if is somebody really big they probably get hundreds of messages. The chances to respond to you are lower. But if you try to reach out to somebody with a similar number of followers as you, you can send them a DM and talk about a collaboration that will grow your accounts together.
