Trending Sounds for TikTok and Instagram
We’ve searched for sounds that are about to start trending for you to use. This gives your videos a bump when everyone else starts using them too! Paired with our prompts, you’ll easily make all the video content you need this week.
NOTE: We’ve been asked by a few of you if the trending sounds go stale after a while. The truth is, you could use these for the next month and get benefit from them; even use them multiple times! But to help clarify things, we’re adding a little Legend for the sounds.

Let 'em See We're Crazy sound

little girl gone Sound
Use these prompts for what to say & do in your video:
Prompt Options
This is a great, trending song to use in your videos. Try one or all of the following:
As in the example, highlight something that held you back and on the music change, show yourself succeeding at that very thing now.
Great song for a before/after showoff. Try showing your before and then when you reveal the after, shake the phone or camera just a bit to mimic the beat drop.
Show off something you’re proud of one of your clients for. Could be just a few seconds of video with some explanation OR you could record a FaceTime or Zoom call and use this audio as background music.
way harder Sound
Use these prompts for what to say & do in your video:
Prompt Option 1
Lip sync the Sound as YOU doing something in your business. Use the caption to explain.
Prompt Option 2
Lip sync the Sound as a potential CLIENT trying to do something they could hire you to do easily. Explain in the caption.
Prompt Option 3
Lip sync the Sound doing something that many in your industry make a lot hard than it needs to be. Use some On Screen Text to explain why it doesn't have to be that hard.
Once There Was a Way Sound
Use these prompts for what to say & do in your video:
Prompt Option 1
This trend is all about the dramatic reveal. You might try following the example above and listing several complaints or hurdles that have plagued your day. Then cut to reveal the solution (drinking water, wearing your glasses, just getting started, etc).
Prompt Option 2
Other ways people are using this trend are to sit in darkness and use On Screen Text to describe something they're dreading. Then when the voice comes in, they turn on the light and the On Screen Text reveals what miraculously saved them. (e.g., Going into a math test — There's a substitute)
Prompt Option 3
Just like all music sounds, this one can be leveraged as a song during your Behind The Scenes footage, you on a podcast or video call, just working on anything. OR you can lower the volume and talk over it to give a tip, appear on a podcast, or voiceover.
Original Sound Ideas for TikTok and Instagram
It can be fun and very helpful to your account growth when you use Trending Sounds like we’ve listed above. BUT what keeps people around is the value you add by creating Original Sounds! This just means that you’re using spoken audio from your own video. Use our prompts below to come up with ideas for bringing your own voice to your TikTok or Instagram account!
1. I'LL SAY IT AGAIN SOUND
Repetition is vital to clear marketing. People need to be exposed to a piece of information about 8 times before they internalize it and can act on it. Use this prompt to repeat an important fact, tip, or need your clients need to know.
Prompt
Either use this script or change it up to your own words:
You know, I've said it 1,000 times but I'll say it again... _______ (your offer or tip) is so important for your _______ (business/health/life/etc) because it will help you avoid _______ (some risk or pain) and instead let you ________ (success they'll experience). Share this with the person you think needs to hear it again today.
Consider adding a CTA in the caption IF you've not used one lately.
2. PODCAST AUDIO SOUND
Don’t let content you’ve already made go under-utilized! Grab video and audio from a podcast you’ve appeared on recently.
Prompt
Find a great 15-45 second clip from your podcast interview and make it a TikTok and Reel. Be sure to use a clip that is on-message for your business!
3. THE PROBLEM YOU SOLVE SOUND
Never let your audience forget you can solve a problem for them by never ceasing to talk about that problem!
Prompt
Talk straight to the camera and kick off with the hook: "Have you ever dealt with ___[problem you solve]___? Here are a couple tips to help you face it.
4. YOUR QUICK OFFER SOUND
Get more people on board with your offer by helping them quickly understand it. The goal here is a 10-ish second video to hack the algorithm by increasing the percentage of the video viewed.
Prompt
Talk straight to the camera and kick off with the hook: "This video is only for ______ (your ideal client/niche). You know how hard it is to ________ (do the thing your offer helps with)? Well ________ (your business name) fixes that for you. I put the details in the caption."
5. YOUR PLAN SOUND
Your people will buy from you faster when you give them an easy plan to follow. Sure, there might be numerous steps to actually doing business with you but let's break it down to a simple three step process.
Prompt
Talking straight to camera, use this script:
Here's how easy we make it to _____ (success you help them achieve)! First, you ________ (what they do to start; schedule a call, fill out a form, etc). Second, we will ________ (thing you do to make the offer happen; this is a BIG step but keep it really simple). And then third, you get to enjoy ______ (the win your offer gives them, repeated). Yeah, we keep it that simple! So check off step one right now we'll get started.
