This is an obvious. I created a new account when I was locked out my original and I have gained so much interactions. TikTok is not the only app!

With the Meta owning most social platforms, having Facebook is a must. You can cross post from Instagram which helps your analytics on both platforms.

This was once an app for online calling. It’s now ran by Meta. If you’re looking to integrate your Facebook and Instagram accounts with an online number app, this is what to use.

Oldie but a goodie. There’s so many things you can accomplish on the free version. If you’re just getting start, dip your toes here!
CapCut | All-in-one video editor & graphic design tool driven by AI

This is the CapCut 2.0 but completely free. You can only edit vertical videos so I use this to add sound (music) to my TikTok, Shorts and Reel videos. The text portion needs more work but they are consistently updating the app.

Yes, I know you can use free apps. I personally use CapCut at home but Adobe Pr is great for making content that you plan to stick to.

This is a good mapping app. Think the web of bigger projects such as campaigns. Organizing your content before pressing record.
