TikTok has quickly risen to the forefront of social media for businesses by captivating audiences and transforming the way brands interact with and are being received by their audiences.

What sets TikTok apart from other social media platforms is the way it targets and promotes authenticity, creativity, and virality. Granting anyone the opportunity to succeed by building strong relatable content that engages with their desired audience. Unlike other platforms that rely on algorithms and user behaviour, TikTok tailors to each users interests and preferences. Unlocking the potential for any brand to reach their specific demographic organically, regardless of how many followers they currently have. Allowing small names to build awareness and reach their audience in a meaningful way.

Hashtag Challenge

One of the most powerful tools brands can utilise on TikTok is the hashtag challenge.

This allows brands to create their own unique challenge that encourage users to participate and engage - by creating and sharing their own videos using a specific hashtag.

These are often utilised in dance challenges, music challenges, completing a task, DIY tutorials, reaction videos, and so many more. Many have quickly become viral sensations, driving brand awareness and engagement levels. These challenges are a great way for brands to not only start a trend and gain awareness that way, but also by participating in other challenges and gaining popularity through trending topics and themes.

Influencer Partnerships

As with many social media platforms TikTok has also had a rise in its network of influencers.

This allows a brand to partner with another and utilise their audience to market their products and business to a larger network. As well as gain social proof from someone of holding, to then validate your brand to their audience.

This is a great way to quickly build your own audience and gain traction, through someone else’s following.

Creative Potential

TikTok is one of the best platforms to express creativity and empower its users to express themselves freely and in new and exciting ways. With inbuilt system tools to edit, and adjust footage, TikTok enables users to create high quality footage for free, allowing for a professional vibe and equal opportunity for all users.

This not only allows everyone an equal footing for all brand’s to be heard but offers any brand the opportunity to engage with their audience in a more relatable, personal and authentic way.
