You want your consumer to feel that value and take initiative on it.

The reel should also ideally generate authentic discussion. Make your posts and reels share-worthy to optimize the growth potential.

How Content Goes Viral

 

Garnish a massive discussion on a post, high engagement is achieved; social media platforms see this and will boost the post to keep their consumers engaged.

Algorithms between TikTok / Instagram / Facebook / YouTube / Twitter all generally promote what is being shared and commented on the most.
