Happy Monday!

Here’s the Business Buzz with A Helpful Trend, Tip, Tool, and

a Hot Take from HiveThink to help you this week.

01 HiveTrend - TikTokification

🏞️ Whether or not TikTok ends up being officially banned or sold, it’s made quite the impact on the social media landscape.

It seems every app that is remotely touching close to being social media is cloning themselves to be like TikTok. Whether you hate or love this trend, it doesn’t change the fact that it’s the digital world we now live in.

🤔 That being the case, how can we leverage this?

The most beneficial thing I see coming out of this is it’s a lot easier to build up one skill and now apply it across multiple platforms: short-form video.

Plus, you can now make one piece of content and post it across most social media sites. Efficient!

What about you? How do you feel about the TikTokification of social media?

02 HiveTip - Personal Branding Simplified

Personal Branding = Reputation.

🗣️ Reputation = What people think (or say) about you when you’re not around.

Bonus: How do your friends, colleagues, or customers describe you to someone when introducing you? This is a clue to what people find interesting or special about you.

P.S. If you want to go more in-depth on the personal branding discussion, Michael and Nate recorded an episode all about this. Check it out here.

03 HiveTool - IG Story Editing

Ever forget to tag someone in an Instagram story and have to redo the whole thing?

Guess what, Instagram will now let you edit stories after you’ve posted them so you can tag people without all the fuss.

💪 Thanks Instagram!

04 HiveTake - A More Helpful, and Less Painful Lens For Entrepreneurship

🔬 See everything, and I mean every single thing, in your journey as an experiment to collect data to run your next experiment.

Every experiment bears fruit. Either your hypothesis is true, yay! Or it’s false, but teaches you how to get closer to the right hypothesis, yay!

Want to wade more calmly through the entrepreneurial water? Try this mindset on for size, and let us know how it goes for you.
