Details on how I grew my TikTok 540k+ followers‼️
This time last year, this was just an idea. I was playing around with editing but never posting it. I was so afraid of who might see, if they saw me fail. But why? Who was anybody to laugh at me for trying?
I understand being afraid to post your content, because I was too. I was a stay-at-home dog mom/ girlfriend lol. I had my stocks and things that made sure I was financially stable. But as far as working- I didn’t.
I love being home and cooking, hanging with my dogs and my man, working out, and making our house into a home. I figured nobody cared to see my life because I wasn’t flying out the country every other week. And little did I know, people love relatable content and I was more inspirational than I gave myself credit for.
I finally started posting months later, and I grew a community that I would’ve neverrr imagined wouldve come from me lighting my candles, pouring my glass of wine, and making my dinner. But here I am now, a full time influencer/ content creator, showing a relatable life, staying true to myself. Putting my first eBook and e-course together. Working with brands I’ve loved for years. Recording what I thought nobody would be interesting in, just my life, and getting paid for it.
6 months changed my life. And wrote down exactly what I did.
I also started posting to instagram a couple of months ago and have gained over 180,000 followers on there. If you guys want my tips and tricks for what I did on there too, let me know. I’ve been on here for about a week. And YouTube is next! 🥂
If I could do it, so can you. Believe in yourself, even if nobody else does. 🫶🏽

Growing a TikTok following from scratch can be challenging, but it’s not impossible. Here are essential tips based on my experience: 1. **Post Regularly**: Start by posting something, anything! You won't gain followers by hesitating; consistency is key. Forget about waiting for the perfect time. Just begin! 2. **Engaging Content**: Capture attention in the first 3 seconds. Whether it’s a cooking tutorial or lifestyle vlog, show the outcome or the exciting part early on to keep viewers interested. 3. **Quality Over Quantity**: A stable and well-lit video can make a huge difference. Using a tripod is a must! Uploading in higher resolution like 1080p or 4K enhances viewer experience. 4. **Authenticity Matters**: Always post because you love what you're sharing. Focusing on virality often leads to burnout; genuine content creation fosters organic growth. 5. **Provide Value**: Ensure that your audience gains something from your videos. Share stories, tips, or insights. Helping your viewers is a great way to build a loyal following. 6. **Use Keywords Wisely**: Keywords in your text overlays can help the algorithm position your content better. Don’t forget to engage with trending hashtags relevant to your niche. 7. **Be Consistent**: Find a posting schedule that works and stick to it. Check your analytics for when your audience is most active and post slightly before that time. 8. **Audio Choices**: Use music that resonates with you rather than simply trending sounds. Your personal taste can attract like-minded followers. 9. **Engagement is Key**: Respond to comments and questions genuinely. Building a relationship with your audience can enhance engagement on your posts. 10. **Measure Engagement**: Monitor which types of posts perform best. Videos that maintain viewer attention and provoke interaction are likely to be featured more prominently on TikTok. By following these principles, you can successfully grow your TikTok audience just like I did!
