Have to say tho, Jessie is the only person on YouTube who actually are talking real proven facts about the music industry instead of some weird generic bull***t

This is literally some of the most concise information with actionable advice to take to grow a following. Best of all it, it helps keep things in perspective. At the end of the day it's about the listeners and how we can provide THEM value. As artists if our fans win. We win. Thanks Jesse!

Appreciate the insight as always, Jesse. I just launched a tik tok for my band last week and I’m still learning the platform. I’ve never used tik tok before launching it for my band, so any and all information helps.

After interacting with our fans for years, a lot of my fans don’t use social media and especially aren’t on tik tok so this really feels like a “from the ground up” build. One of the major (personal) issues I feel on tik tok is that I’m fairly introverted when it comes to posting videos on social media, so this platform is going to take some personal fear conquering lol.

That said, loved some of the ideas you shared that doesn’t require you to character act or act ridiculous! The idea about providing insights about other larger bands within the genre is a great idea.

[ALXANDRwolfgang]

[OreOJ]

Solid advice man, always appreciate the honesty in your videos

[darkskinwhite]

the thing with half the last word getting cut off is something I've been doing for comedic effect for years lol it just makes stuff funny idk why

[damonomusic]

Jesse.... damn... the of why people might watch and gain interest is so fundamental and overlooked... its even bigger than TikTok or XYZ, thanks for spreading your insight and wisdom!! Always learning something new from your content :)

[ermanevcil]

[Firetracks]

Long videos are the exception to the rule but they CAN work. One of my most-viewed tiktoks (nearly a million views) is a 2 minute 45 second long video. But when I posted that one, my other videos were already doing good in the algorithm. I had over 20k followers who liked me for a hyper-specific niche. And the long video was about something I knew a lot about in that niche, that not many other people were talking about. (And I've been a wannabe-youtuber for years so I know how to present to camera.) Long videos are ok as long as the whole thing is entertaining. It can't slow down for even half a second.

best video yet. watched the whole thing! thank you

[ofppt]

that clarophonic plugin is insanely amazing.

[cameronallen]

Thanks for the tips Jesse, always gets me motivated and moving. I didn't know about Koji before this but just signed up and my link looks sick

[NexusLives]

Fantastic! Thanks for the tips! I'm really trying to get my tiktok game up, so it's very appreciated. Some of this, i just end up overlooking when trying to make content.

[jamescurtis]

The comment you made about the brevity of tictok videos is something I noticed but it never once occurred to me that it was strategy. Didn’t even know there was a 3 minute option on that app. I gotta start thinking like a marketer

[krismer]

i loveeee a channel what's every video starts with the word 'so' 😁 keep it up, jesse, you're a godsend

[rawwritsleah]

[elycetyler]
