😅 Be honest - Do any of these sound familiar?
You see other artists go viral from simple videos…
You’ve been posting, but the views just aren’t coming in…
You’re starting to get discouraged with social media…
If so, don’t worry 👇 Whether your goal is to go viral or simply just get more views, today I’ll show you how to actually do it. 🚀

Why You’re Not Getting the Views You Want
On the surface, there are lots of possible reasons your content might not be working:
💡 Your video idea might not be strong enough 🪝 Your hook might not grab attention fast enough 🎬 Your editing might not keep people watching
But here’s the real truth:
You're not standing out.
Most artists post the same type of videos...And if your content looks like everyone else’s, people will most likely scroll right past - no matter how good your music is.
How to Start Standing Out
To stand out, you only need two things:
1️⃣ A fresh content idea
2️⃣ Your own unique twist
1. How to Find the Best Ideas
Coming up with ideas can be tough because it often feels like everything’s already been done.
You could spend hours scrolling through Instagram or TikTok for inspiration…
👉 Or, to save time (and frustration), you can download my New! Daily Personalized Content Ideas list, which includes all the most original viral video ideas that you can easily put your own twist on. 🎉
2. How to Add Your Own Unique Twist
Ask yourself: What about you, your vibe, or your music makes you different?
For example:
If your personality is funny → add humor to a trending video.
If you love nature → shoot your content outdoors and make it your signature.
If your music fits raves/festivals → bring that energy into your visuals.
Not sure what makes you unique?
You can ask your friends or work directly with me and my team through our Content Coaching. We’ll help you uncover what sets you apart and turn it into viral content. 🚀
🎉 Here are three unique example ideas:
@maplespetdinosaur used their neighbor's Ring camera to make a free music video (54M views)
@feliciabianco.dj performed a set next to a busy tram stop (3.4M views)
@izzy.escobar listened to her mix for the first time with her friends (1.5M views)
✅ Remember:
You don’t need to “hack the algorithm.”
You just need to make content that’s different enough to stand out and real enough to connect. 💯
