TikTok Trending Music
To maximize video views, your best chance is by using trending audio. This month’s trending audio includes the following:[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
“BEST FRIENDS FOR LIFE”
@zeekoazidanFederal Besties of Investigation ????♬ TWINNEM – Coi Leray
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Idea to execute:
- This would be a really good trend to jump on with another first responder. If there’s a bromance at the station, or two best friends it would be really cool to record the two of them in uniform doing different dances, feeding each other food, stuff that only best friends do.
- Another idea is to team up with another first responder agency like the police department and show how firefighters and police officers work together to serve the community.
Suggested Hashtags to include: #twinning #bestfriend #twinnem
Caption/text overlay: Best friends for life! #twinning[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
