How to turn these into posts that convert
Post 3-5 slide carousels weekly showing a before/after transformation or a key tip from your video. Keep captions under 15 words per slide. Use a hook that teases the result. Avoid hard selling; let the content speak. Post 4-6 times per week during peak TikTok usage (7-9pm local).
Timing: Post daily at 7pm local time for highest engagement from YouTube creators scrolling after work.
