YouTube video by Kyle Balmer describing how he reached ~100,000 TikTok followers in ~six months, stalled around 97,000 for about a month, and reignited growth by reposting two previously high-performing videos (one ~3M views, one ~2M views). He downloaded the originals, trimmed the intros, added captions, and reposted clips that were originally posted about four months earlier; this restarted growth to a couple thousand followers per day. Main lessons: persist through temporary slumps (possible causes: algorithm change, seasonality, bad luck) and reuse proven content.
