I’ve got some other videos on how to set up your profile on my account! Like bio, pinned posts, etc!
Thanks, Matt for the info. So clear and my eyes have been open. I have a question about cross-posting. Is there a option that pops up and asks if you want to cross-post each of your posts or do you have to set that up before you post the one in question? I appreciate your help.

You can set it up inside the “Account center” to automatically cross post!
Good tips! Thank you! As a coach, would you recommend NOT having a business FB page and strictly cross posting to your personal FB page?

Great question! If you plan to run ads or use Facebook’s business suite, you will need a business page. I make all my posts on my personal page and every once in a while may update my business page but I don’t focus much on it

I would turn your personal one into a creator account, that way your network can see what you are doing! It’s better than starting a new account.

have you tested the engagement between personal vs. creator account? i hear a lot of people saying their engagement tanked after switching account types, which makes me wonder... does ig lower engagement for creator/business accounts to get us pay to for ads? or does changing the account type reset your algorithm? (if changing the account type resets the algorithm, then theoretically, we'd be able to dodge the problem by switching to a creator account as soon as creating the account?)

I’m not sure if switching would decrease the engagement temporarily or not, but if you plan to run ads in the future you will want to use a creator or business account!
I want to use TikTok to promote my books on Amazon. I want to be able to provide clickable links to my books on Amazon. Which type of account allows me to do this and where can I put those links (on actual videos or just in my bio)?

hi there! I noticed that creator side is much more interesting especially we can use music to attract and spread more awareness, but what about the API? maybe i missed it, I understand that creator account would be much more beneficial if the page doesn't sell physical item, but if it does sell physical item? better use business? CMIIW!!

If you plan to run ads or anything you will need any to keep it in creator mode! So just work on continuing to make better content, if you don’t have any interest in running ads you don’t need the creator account

You can connect your creator account to the business manager and ad account. We run $1k a day on META ads with this account and it works great!
Can you please help? Instagram thinks I live outside of the United States, so my gift feature for monetizing has been removed. All times prior it’s been fine; I don’t know what changed. I’m super frustrated and hoping that someone SOMEWHERE can help. Thank you if you can. 💯

@@drmattshiverThank you! One more thing, and if you have a video that explains this, please point me to it. I have a personal Instagram that I want to remain personal. To add a business or creator account, everything I’ve found tells me to “switch to a professional account”. My business is with a partner, though, so I don’t necessarily want my personal account associated with our shared one. Do we start from scratch by using our business email address to get the new account going?
