We kickstarted 2023 by hiring Frederico Lopes as our first Chief Operating Officer (affectionately abbreviated to COO). Frederico is a king when it comes to all things operations. And with his ten years of experience removing bottlenecks and streamlining processes, we’re happy to have him on board!
We know you’re thinking about the festive season. Us, too. From November through January, marketers around the world are pushing their ideas (and their budgets) to run successful holiday campaigns. But the smartest ones are focusing on TikTok.
What has been repeatedly the number one most downloaded app in the world? TikTok, of course. The social media app has set fire to 2022, with over a billion monthly active users (AMU) spending roughly $2.5 million daily revenue on the app. Now, with the highest-grossing spending of all social media apps, marketers are starting to see the value of having a TikTok strategy.
Picture this: You want to cook pasta carbonara for lunch so you instinctively look it up on Google. Up pops a long list of search results, and even if you choose the first one, you’ll still have to sift through the chef’s over-sharing blog—peppered with key search engine optimization (SEO) phrases—before you even get to the equally lengthy recipe.
While the attention of the industry has been focused on TikTok outperforming Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and Instagram, there's a new kid on the block, and its name is BeReal.
The latest figures from TikTok are mind-blowing: Eight new users join the app every second, contributing to a staggering 1 billion active monthly users (AMU). And these are some of the most engaged users out there.
We’re expanding here at LINK Agency, and new hire Joaquim Salguerio will be leading the way in offering full-funnel creative strategies and cross-platform media buying. Heading our newly formed paid media team, Joaquim takes on the freshly created title of Paid Media Director and will be responsible for our growth in the performance marketing industry.
While Facebook was busy trying to be Instagram and Instagram was trying to show up as Snapchat, along came TikTok to shake things up.
Let's clear one thing up: Not all Tiktok challenges are about dancing. You don't have to choose your least favorite person at work and have them do the latest TikTok challenge. Different trends continuously come up on the app, so it’s easy to find one that works for you.
TikTok’s meteoric rise in popularity continues as it surpassed Instagram to be the most downloaded app so far in 2022 and now exceeds 3.5 billion in the number of all-time downloads.
Our sensitivity to rhythm and melody is a universal human trait that allows us to hear and construct music. While birds and whales might also ‘sing,’ and exceptional examples of beat-perceiving cockatoos and sea lions exist, our connection to sound is overwhelmingly human. Throughout history, music has - and continues to - influence cultures and define generations worldwide.
Let’s start by saying there’s no one way to go viral on TikTok—but there are plenty of opportunities. TikTok’s growth in statistics is record-breaking: It was the most popular app to be downloaded globally in 2020 and 2021 and has 1 billion monthly active users (MAU) in over 150 countries worldwide.
At LINK Agency, we develop slam-bang creative strategies that marry current trends with brand-voice-specific content. We’re TikTok experts, always on the lookout for success stories and inspirational brands with top-notch content and a strong viral presence on the app.So, here are three takeaways from some of our favorite brands with winning TikTok marketing strategies
Many well-established artists have wholeheartedly embraced TikTok as a key new channel to promote their work after seeing the app’s potential. Rapper Cardi B’s controversial 2020 smash hit “WAP” was boosted by TikTok’s viral #WAPchallenge throughout the summer, so much so that her Spotify followers rose by over 400,000 in less than a month.
TikTok influencer marketing has tremendous potential to be highly lucrative, build brand awareness, and result in higher engagement and conversion rates. And choosing the right partnerships can significantly impact a brand, but this doesn’t have to involve getting Charli D’Amelio or Jason Derulo on your payroll. Micro-influencers, with 5,000 to 100,000 followers, can also boost your company’s sales and brand image. They tend to have a niche audience, and in the age of personalized communications, brands are increasingly searching for a more human approach to marketing rather than appealing to the anonymous masses.
Gen Zs have an average attention span of only eight seconds, according to Forbes. This means that they’re more responsive to short, authentic, and entertaining content, so there’s no wonder that TikTok has proven to be their number one go-to social media platform.TikTok today generates an indefinite number of opportunities that you – as a brand – could leverage in novel and innovative ways to strengthen your brand image and build up your social media presence.
Regardless of your age, from Generation Z to someone who doesn’t know anything about TikTok, this platform is changing how people communicate, enjoy their free time, and purchase products. So what makes TikTok different? To answer this question, we need to understand how it works. The most attractive thing about TikTok is that anyone can easily create content, and users can share what others made, using trending sounds and hashtags. They significantly decreased the barrier to create content vs. previous video apps such as Vine, enabling anyone to become a creator.
Since the moment TikTok launched in 2016, it’swell on course to overshadow other social media giants, including Instagram andSnapchat. With fresh features constantly up its sleeve, TikTok continues tobuild a highly engaged audience that isn't limited by geographies ordemographics. Now more than ever is the right time to consider getting yourselfinvolved. Many users on TikTok stick to thealgorithm-suggested "For You" page when consuming content, making itmuch easier to get viral on TikTok than on Instagram. Simply put, being thego-to platform for exploring new trends, there's no doubt that products andservices should be a part of the conversation. "Cool, but how does it work?" Goodquestion; let's dive deep into why TikTok might be a better fit for yourproduct marketing than Instagram.
