And maybe you too have found yourself evaluating this option: both because TikTok is the social network that has been talked about the most in the last year, and because kids like it a lot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>TikTok<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is in fact the social network that speaks to Generation Z, that of those born between 1996 and 2010.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Developed in China from the ashes of Musical.ly, it is the social network most loved by very young people. And that makes it a perfect ally for your marketing strategy. But let&#8217;s see <\/span><b>how to do marketing with TikTok<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>TikTok marketing: how to start\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we talk about TikTok from a marketing point of view, two fundamental factors must be kept in mind: the <\/span><b>target<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the <\/span><b>medium<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, TikTok does not work like the social networks we have been using for years: unlike the classic Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, in fact, <\/span><b>it is not necessary to follow a user<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to view their content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The app&#8217;s algorithm offers users content based on what they watch, therefore following their interests. This is how the right content can arrive in many feeds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another feature to remember is the type of content: on TikTok, <\/span><b>videos of a few seconds<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. As a result, not only do users view dozens and dozens, but they are participating because, in turn, they can easily create them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>TikTok marketing: early adopters\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As far as the target of your TikTok marketing is concerned, the social network&#8217;s reference age is <\/span><b>between 16 and 24 years<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This does not mean that people in their thirties and forties cannot enroll, but that, more simply, they are a minority.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is known that in marketing, young people are considered <\/span><b>early adopters<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, those who use new products or services first. Penetrating this market segment is useful for two reasons: on the one hand, it means testing the feedback that your product can have even in a wider audience, and on the other hand, winning customers both for the present and for the future. In short, position your brand for the adults of tomorrow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But of course, regardless of these positive aspects, the question to ask remains the same: does your product interest a teenager or a 20-year-old? Only in this case will you be able to proceed with your TikTok marketing strategy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Techniques and opportunities for businesses\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, have you evaluated your product and services and decided that TikTok marketing is right for you? Well, all that remains is to discover the right techniques.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First and foremost, <\/span><b>take care of your videos<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Not in a glossy way like on other social networks, but think of a fun and engaging idea: TikTok is <\/span><b>entertainment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Challenges<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>lipsync<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>dances<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> work well as content on TikTok: immediate content, which allow the user to move from one video to another with continuity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now let&#8217;s get to the <\/span><b>format<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: it can be <\/span><b>short<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (between 3 and 25 seconds) or <\/span><b>long<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (between 30 and 60 seconds and up to 10 minutes).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But what you absolutely must not forget while planning your marketing plan is that on TikTok, videos are <\/span><b>generated by the user<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. What does this mean? It means that it can&#8217;t be a company that creates videos, but people. That is, employees, colleagues or <\/span><b>tiktokers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, that is, the creators who get the most views and become the influencers of the social network. The content must convey an idea of <\/span><b>immediacy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. To encourage sharing, insert <\/span><b>hashtags<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The tools\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the type of content, that is, user generated content, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.contents.com\/magazine\/social-network\/instagram-tiktok-strategies-for-editorial-plan\/\">TikTok can be used for your business<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, you can convert views and contacts with a <\/span><b>link in bio<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: you can direct users <\/span><b>to your site<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, preparing attractive landing pages. And thus transform visitors into customers. At the same time, you can insert a TikTok button on your site to direct site visitors to the app.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, as with other social networks, you can use sponsorship: since there are still relatively few competitors, the ads will have an important level of penetration. You can create campaigns of different types: in-feed, brand takeover, hashtag challenge, branded lenses, top-view video.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose the one that best suits your needs, always remembering that for now, costs remain higher than other social networks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, keep an eye on the <\/span><b>shop now<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> button, to buy directly from TikTok.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Opportunities<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, here are the opportunities that marketing on TikTok can offer you: we have already talked about them, but it is good to emphasize them again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to TikTok&#8217;s young target market, if your proposal is on target, you can gain a <\/span><b>competitive advantage<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> over your rivals. Position yourself among the youngest, cultivating a community that will develop an emotional bond with the brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For this aspect, don&#8217;t forget the <\/span><b>TikTok for Good<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> section: you&#8217;ll support causes that are good for your brand, inspiring young people. Now that you know the potential of TikTok and its opportunities, why not start using it?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Revolutionize your content marketing strategy.
