CAPTIONS ARE IMPORTANT:
As a quick reminder, captions (aka, subtitles) transcribe the words spoken in your video & display them at the bottom of the screen.
Almost 80% of viewers watch videos without sound
Captions can play a key component in engaging with these users. When you share content on TikTok, the main idea is to allow anyone in the world to enjoy it.
Here are 3 reasons why using captions/subtitles on TikTok is important:
Improve Brand Reach on TikTok: The TT algorithm 'rewards' videos that have captions w/ increased reach
Increase Engagement: If you don’t include captions, people may not be able to watch your videos & will likely just keep scrolling to the next one
When Sound is Off: If the user's sound is off on their device, they are still able to receive your brand message b/c there are captions on the screen
Aside from the video content, itself, there is a lot of powerful value held in the CAPTIONS of TikTok - whether it’s a short & sweet caption pairing, a noteworthy call-to-action, or an educational opportunity… the captions can be a powerful asset in the content creator toolbelt!
With that being said, TikTok is a GREAT place to build your business - let's get started by setting your direction/strategy for success!!! Schedule a FREE Strategy Session w/ me.
