Breaking Down Why the Dr Pepper TikTok Worked and What Businesses Can Learn

In this episode of the Painless Posting Podcast, Maggie Carey breaks down how a simple TikTok jingle turned into a national Dr Pepper commercial and what small businesses can learn from it.

Instead of chasing virality, Maggie explains why clear, intentional social media signals are what actually create opportunity. She walks through a practical framework that helps businesses get noticed for the right reasons and shows how engagement behaviors matter more than views when it comes to real momentum.

You will hear real examples, including how to spot what is working in your own analytics and how to turn one strong idea into content that continues to perform.
