Instagram Reels VS TikTok: All our Thoughts from a Creator Standpoint

We’d been doing our thing on the gram for about two years and finally felt like we were getting into our groove in creating reels. Instagram was pushing reels hard-core and we were adapting and finding a balance between static posts and reels. Then we talked to Brendan’s cousin (who works in marketing) about what else we could do to grow our SaverSisters business and she suggested TikTok. Nikki was already addicted to TikTok as a viewer but I had been avoiding it as just another time suck. We polled our Insta-fam to see if they wanted to see us make TikToks (they didn’t) but she assured us that it was a completely different audience and that companies wanted to see a presence on other social media platforms. So we went for it… and here are our thoughts.
