The social media industry has always been challenging when it comes to online marketing. There’s always something new that comes up and you’re never so sure if you want to spend time and effort in investing marketing forces there. Something comes up and dies down most of the time, right? And what’s left in the end are your usual staples: Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

When a new social media platform called TikTok came out, you might have asked: should I consider this for an online marketing effort? TikTok is a short video social media platform. Yes, just like what Vine was.

When Vine officially signed off, people are looking for that short video format that they all love. Funny, witty, 6-second videos drove people’s creativity at a whole new different level. Somebody just needed to step in, and TikTok came to the rescue.

However, the entry of this new social media platform has now sparked debates in the online marketing world. Some online marketers are now considering what they call as TikTok marketing. But would this be worth it in the long run? Would it be there for the long haul? Or would it just disappear like all the others?

Let’s get to know TikTok and see why people are so crazed about it, and why it is confusing online marketing efforts recently.

How to Maximize IGTV for Your Brand

by Rocket Social Team

in Advice, Instagram

Comments

Last June, Instagram just launched its new addition to their long list of features – the IGTV.

IGTV is Instagram’s long-video format platform that allows creators to upload up to one hour of video on their “channel” (as they call it). Currently, this is only available to select creators – those who have IG accounts with a huge following (Selena Gomez, Kim K, Kevin Hart, and Lele Pons to name a few).

Both creators and audience can access IGTV by tapping on the orange TV button in the app, or download a stand-alone IGTV app.

Once you click the button, it will instantly play content from people you follow or what the algorithm thinks that you would like based on the accounts you follow and your view behavior.

Anything is now possible with Instagram with this TV feature. And while it is still a young one, it would be best to prepare to dive into the bigger picture and plan out on how you can maximize IGTV for your brand.

Getting an influencer to represent your brand has been an important thing for most brands lately. This is called Influencer Marketing.

This is the type of marketing which taps people called an influencer – celebrity or not. This influencer would then post about your product or service depending on your terms and conditions as to how they post about it and how often.

Basically, it’s a cheaper but more efficient way of getting someone to endorse your brand.

But looking for an influencer could be tricky. Of course, one would like to go for people who are famous and has a huge social media following, but it could cost you a lot. Plus, it isn’t the only qualification.

Here are a few points you want to consider before getting an influencer (or two) for your brand.

Instagram’s Boomerang was one of the biggest trends in social media marketing last year. SM experts and gurus have predicted that it would still be one of the trends this year.

With the rise of video marketing’s popularity, Boomerang rides in on that category; since it’s not totally a video – and not a GIF, either.

Basically, Instagram Boomerang is a burst of shots stitched together to create a moving picture. Unlike GIFs that moves forward then loop back to the beginning, Boomerang moves forward AND back, then loop.

Taking creative Boomerangs would surely kick in some fun on your IG stories and posts; something that your audience would really love.

But how do you take creative Boomerangs exactly? Well, there’s really no exact formula but we could give you a few tips to start with.
