Hi Goal Digger, welcome back for another episode of The Goal Digger Girl podcast. I'm so excited to have you on today. We're going to get dirty. We're going to get down and dirty with TikTok and Instagram, but first, a review and don't forget to put your own review. All you have to do is tag me on Instagram. Throw me in your stories and tag me at the Goaldiggergirl G. O. A.L. This week's listener review comes from Rochelle Pederson. She says, Kimberly inspires me to be a better version of myself. Her trainings are invaluable and once you are in one, you can access it for life. I've learned so much through her teachings and continue to grow my business through the motivating inspiration she gives. Well, thank you Rochelle. I consider you a dear friend and that's very, very sweet of you.

So let's get into it with the hottest thing on the social media scene being TikTok? I'm sure you're wondering, I'm sure you're thinking, I'm sure you've tried. Do I need to make TikTok an integral part of my social media strategy? The answer is yes and no. So if you currently have Facebook down, like you've got it down to a science, you're like, I've got this, I can do it in my sleep, you know, I'm dropping my kids off at the preschool line. Right. Not that you would do that, but you're in the carpool line and you're rolling in and you get your kids out and you could drop a post really fast like you've got it down. Then I would say for sure, for sure you are ready to be able to go on over to TikTok if you are not, you don't have it down, I should say Facebook or Instagram, you need one platform down tight, like it is flawless.

Okay. It's part of what you do every day. You don't have to force yourself to do it. It's just what you do. Okay. If that's the case, then yes, I would say let's had you on over to TikTok and check it out. You can find me at the Goaldiggergirl on TikTok, and I've had a lot of success on TikTok and that's not really what this is about. This is more deciding what's a better fit for you. What my personal opinion is of where we should spend our time. So if you've not gone on TikTok but you've got these other platforms, at least one platform down, it's time. It's time to give it a go. And I know there's some resistance around it. It seems silly. It's a bunch of 12 year olds. That is definitely not true. The moms ma'am, they're like taking over a TikTok.

It's freaking awesome. So if that's you and you're worried about having to dance or having to sing, that's not what it is. You do not have to do that. You can actually do a.. TikToks can be 15 to 60 seconds. You can just talk, you can just give a tip. So there's a girl I follow just to kind of see what some of the, some people are doing and she's with a, I think she must be with, I don't know which one, but some kind of skincare company and she's always doing funny TikToks, showing like different products she's using and they're, they're entertaining. I mean, they definitely catch your eye. So you don't have to necessarily dance or anything like that.
