That’s how long the average TikTok user will give you before deciding whether to swipe to watch the next video or stay on your video. If your video starts by saying “Hi, I’m Manuel from company X and today I’m going to talk to you about Y” you’ve already eaten up the 5 seconds.
People don't give a damn what your name is or what austria number data company you work for. If they're interested in your content, they'll check it out on your profile. So always start with a quote, image, or whatever that will make people want to stay and last less than 5 seconds.

Simply because they break TikTok's unwritten code of spontaneity . Plus, they cost a lot more and may not do as well, so you'll run out of money sooner and may come to the wrong conclusion that TikTok isn't for your business, simply because you haven't given it time.
So don't focus on making the perfect video, focus on making original videos .
