The Superwall Podcast · Jae Hwang - This App Makes $2M/Year With This Viral TikTok Strategy“they usually both have two different accounts where um, you know, different names, but then they would post it on cross-channel for them as well just to see how algorithm really works.”
“Sometimes, you know, one account picks up better than the other, then they would focus on posting two of them in there versus one each.”
