Creating Your TikTok and Facebook Content Strategy

- Add captions to make your content accessible
- Maintain consistent branding across all videos
- Export in different formats for each platform
Step 3: Platform-Specific Content Distribution
TikTok Strategy
- Post educational snippets under 60 seconds
- Use trending sounds and effects
- Focus on one key takeaway per video
- Include a clear call-to-action directing viewers to your link in bio
- Engage with comments to boost algorithm visibility
Facebook Strategy
- Share slightly longer videos (2-3 minutes)
- Create native content for better reach
- Use storytelling to connect with viewers
- Include success stories and case studies
- Leverage Facebook Groups to build community
