TikTok / Reels Short-Form Video Strategy
Short-form video on TikTok and Instagram Reels rewards a different approach than traditional social posts - hooks in the first seconds, native editing style, and consistent posting cadence matter more than polished production. We build a strategy around what's realistic for your team to actually sustain, not a plan that looks good on paper and falls apart after two weeks.
We start by looking at what's already working in your niche on both platforms, then build a content plan around formats your brand can genuinely produce - behind-the-scenes, product demos, trends adapted to your industry, or educational clips, depending on what fits. We also plan posting cadence and cross-posting between TikTok and Reels, since the platforms overlap but aren't identical in what performs.

Hook & Retention Strategy
Guidance on structuring the first few seconds of each video, since that's what determines whether viewers keep watching.

Consistency matters more than a specific number - we'll recommend a cadence that's ambitious but realistic for your team to actually sustain, based on your resources.

A sense of your brand voice, any existing footage or assets you have, and realistic input on how much time your team can commit to filming and posting.
