Troubleshooting

Low Viral Performance

Problem: Video didn't achieve expected views or engagement.

Solutions: 1. Timing Issue: Posted during off-peak hours or trend already declining - Repost at optimal time (6-9 PM local time) - Ensure trend is still active before posting

2. Algorithm Factors: Low completion rate or engagement - Improve hook in first 3 seconds - Shorten video length (15-20 seconds optimal) - Use more engaging trending sound

3. Content Quality: Not shareable or relatable enough - Request revision for better product integration - Ensure content feels authentic, not overly promotional - Add call-to-action for engagement (comments, duets)

4. Hashtag Strategy: Wrong or saturated hashtags - Mix trending hashtags with niche-specific hashtags - Use 3-5 hashtags (not more) - Include one branded hashtag + 2-3 trending hashtags

Creator Not Meeting Expectations

Problem: Creator's content doesn't match viral quality standards.

Solutions: 1. Review Portfolio More Carefully: Check recent viral performance, not just follower count 2. Provide Detailed Brief: Share specific examples, creative direction, and success criteria 3. Use Revision Requests: Request improvements before final approval 4. Build Preferred Creator List: Identify high-performing creators for repeat collaborations
