How to Make Your First TikTok Slideshows With Next5

This guide takes you from zero to your first approved TikTok slideshow. You need your website and an email address. That is it.

What you will have at the end

• Your first slideshows, made from your website
• Each one with a hook, 5 to 9 slides, a caption and hashtags
• Your TikTok account connected
• Your first post approved and on the calendar

Step by step

1. 1

   Paste your website

   Go to the Next5 home page and paste your website in the box. Tap Make slideshows.

   Sign in with your email

   Swipe through the slides. Tap Edit the hook to change the first line. Change any slide text or photo you do not like.

   Approve your post

   Tap Approve slideshow. It goes on your calendar and posts on the day you picked. Nothing goes live without your OK.

What makes a good first post

• A clear hook that names your buyer or their problem.
• Bright photos with people in them when possible.
• A last slide with one ask: follow, visit the website, or book.
