Hey there everyone and welcome back to my blog!
Hope you’re all doing amazing!
This past week has been a whirlwind of excitement for me, and I couldn’t wait to share it with you. Since deciding to engage more with everyone on TikTok, I’ve seen my follower count jump by 74 new friends in just 10 days! I’m guessing that’s good.. Before, I was lucky to get one new follower a day. It’s amazing how a little extra effort can make such a big difference. Are you tired of the constant hustle to create new content every day? Wish you could have a breather and not worry about your posting schedule? Well, I’ve got the perfect solution, video batching! Trust me, this hack is about to make your TikTok life so much easier and fun…
What is Video Batching?
Picture this, instead of making one video at a time, you create multiple videos in one go. It’s like having a super-productive video-making party where you film, edit, and schedule a bunch of content all at once. Sounds cool, right?
Why You Should Try Video Batching
1. Save Time and Energy: No more setting up every single day! With batching, you set up your filming space once and crank out several videos. You’ll have so much extra time to chill and do what you love.
2. Consistency is Key: Posting regularly is super important to growing your audience. Video batching ensures you always have content ready, keeping your feed consistent and your followers happy.
3. Enhanced Creativity: When you’re in the zone, why stop? Batching lets you ride that wave of creativity without any breaks, leading to even more awesome and engaging videos.
4. Stress Reduction: Knowing you have a bunch of videos ready to go can seriously cut down on stress. No more last-minute panic, just a relaxed, happy you!
5. Better Analytics: With multiple videos ready, you can experiment with different types of content and posting times. See what your audience loves best and fine-tune your strategy for maximum impact.
My Experience with Video Batching
I decided to give video batching a shot this week, especially since my schedule was looking super busy for this coming week. Let me tell you, it was a total game changer! I managed to create a whole week’s worth of content in just one afternoon. The best part? I felt so much more relaxed knowing I was ahead and could focus on other things like creating two blog post, one for this week and next week….
How to Batch Your TikTok Videos
Ready to dive in? Here’s a simple guide to help you get started
1. Planning: Start by brainstorming and planning your content. Make a list of video ideas, scripts, and any props you might need.
2. Set Up: Prep your filming space. Set up your camera, lighting, and background. Get everything ready so you can film without any interruptions.
3. Filming: Record all your videos in one go. Change outfits or backgrounds for variety if you want. Focus on getting all your content filmed before moving to the next step.
4. Editing: Edit all your videos in one session. Use your favorite editing app to add effects, text, and music.
5. Scheduling: Use TikTok’s scheduling feature or a third-party app to plan when each video will be posted. This way, you stay consistent without having to manually post every day.
I actually didn’t use this feature myself yet because I just learned about it, but here is a video that explains how you can schedule them if you choose to.
Sorry, I couldn’t figure out how to make the video smaller.
Key Takeaways
1. Save Time & Stay Consistent: Batching lets you film multiple videos in one go, cutting down on daily setup and ensuring a consistent posting schedule.
2. Stress Less, Create More: With content prepped ahead, you’ll reduce stress and have more time to focus on creativity.
3. Grow Your Audience: Consistent posting is crucial for growth, and video batching helps maintain your momentum while experimenting with content strategies.
Give video batching a try, I promise, once you do, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

To Our Success,
Meredith,
Congratulations on the new followers. I have done video batching before and I love that I can have 3, 4 or more days of content to post. I would change my shirt and change my location of video. Since I have been coming to the hospital for 2 months now it is harder to accomplish this. I plan to get back to this strategy. Thanks for the reminder.

Hi Sherri,
Thank you so much! It’s awesome to hear that you’ve done video batching before and that it worked well for you. Changing shirts and locations is a great trick to keep things fresh!I do the same thing when I make my videos. I can imagine how challenging it must be to stick with that strategy while dealing with hospital visits.🥰
When you’re ready to get back into it, I’m sure you’ll hit the ground running again! You’ve already got a great system in place. Wishing you the best, and thanks for your kind words!

Hi Meredith – Video batching is such a great idea. I never thought to do this on my own even though I’ve seen it done before or at least I’ve heard about it. I’m curious, how are you getting content and ideas for your great videos? Are you using AI to assist you or are you having a lot of great ideas on your own? I applaud you for the efforts that you are making as they are truly paying off. I need to get off my tail and start using TikTok more. It’s not going away nor should it go away as the opportunities are limitless with this type of platform. Thanks for the reminder of the video batching and I hope to be using your ideas soon! Until next week I look forward to your blog.
Hi Ernie,
Thank you so much! I’m glad the video batching idea was helpful for you. Honestly, I use a mix, sometimes AI tools for brainstorming, but many of the ideas come from following trends and applying everything my mentor and coaches have taught me. TikTok is such a powerful platform, and once you get started, consistency becomes a lot easier! Definitely jump back in, there’s so much potential. I’m looking forward to seeing your content, and I’m sure you’ll do great!
Meredith
Thank you for the reply and I plan to be on soon… 🙂
Ernie,
Anytime! I’m so glad I can help. I will be looking out for you on TikTok for when you are ready to start posting again…You can do it! 😊

Meredith,
I am video batching using the Social Media planner on Affiliate System, I can post to Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Facebook and TikTok all at the same time. i like the idea of building several platforms at once because you never know when one will go down.
Hi Scott,
That’s awesome, and such a smart approach! Building multiple platforms at once is a great way to expand your reach and protect yourself if anything changes on one of them. I haven’t explored the Social Media Planner in the Affiliate System yet since I just started with social media, but I definitely need to check it out and start using it! Thanks for the reminder!
Meredith
Hi Meredith,
Great stuff as always! I had used the video batching for last months Tik Tok videos – but had used the platform offered to us on Deans Affiliate System.
The Social Planner of the Marketing tab was easy to use – something close to what Tik Tok offers I believe.
The great part about this is that I could use that platform to post on all my social media accounts if I wanted to. Talk about Dean over-delivering again!
Hi Marc,
I’m glad to hear that you found the video batching technique useful for your TikTok content. It’s fantastic that you were able to utilize the Social Planner from Dean’s Affiliate System, it really does make the process smoother, doesn’t it? I haven’t utilized that part of the Affiliate System yet, but I definitely need to look into it now that I’ve started my social media journey. Being able to manage all your social media accounts in one place is such a game changer! Dean’s commitment to providing us with valuable tools continues to impress me as well. Keep up the great work!
Meredith
Video batching is a good strategy! Some people do all their YouTube videos, for instance, for the week in one afternoon. I don’t and probably won’t lol. I enjoy the fresh feeling and intellectual excitement of mining content every morning. I will be getting up earlier in order to fit it all in, including a nap with my Boston Terrior in the afternoon😀
Hi Kate,
That sounds like a great approach! I love how you’ve found what works best for you, there’s definitely something special about that fresh, creative energy each morning. And a nap with your Boston Terrier in the afternoon? That sounds perfect! 😊 Everyone has their own rhythm, and it’s awesome that you’ve found yours. Thanks for sharing!
Meredith

Nakina
Hi Nakina,
Thanks so much! Yes, video batching definitely helps with staying consistent and takes a lot of the stress off. It’s made things so much more manageable for me! I really appreciate your kind words, excited to keep going with this process.
Meredith
Thank you for introducing me to batching. I never would have tried it without you making it sound easier than I ever thought and describing all the benefits.
Hi Judith,
You’re so welcome! I’m really glad to hear that batching clicked for you! It can feel overwhelming at first, but once you see how much time it saves and how manageable it can be, it makes a big difference. I’m excited to see how it works out for you, keep me posted! 😊

Hi Meredith,
Such a great post! I can see how beneficial it would be to use video batching. It would allow one to schedule a day for video batch, one for blog writing, and give more time for blog hopping and engaging with others on the platforms we use. Thanks for sharing, it’s so useful!
Hi Denny,
Thank you so much! I’m glad you found it helpful. Video batching really does make things so much more efficient and frees up time for other important tasks like blog writing and engaging with your community. It’s all about finding that balance, right? I love how you’re thinking about structuring your time, sounds like a great plan! 😊 Thanks again for your kind words, and happy creating!
