By tapping into real-world conversations, taking an informed approach to choosing partners, granting these partners creative freedom, and leveraging UGC content, CPG brands can scale their TikTok marketing programs to drive unmatched ROI

“As CPG brands look to advance their TikTok marketing strategies, we expect the platform to play an increasingly central role in the creator economy,” said Conor Begley, Chief Strategy Officer at CreatorIQ. “By tapping into real-world conversations, taking an informed approach to choosing partners, granting these partners creative freedom, and leveraging UGC content, CPG brands can scale their TikTok marketing programs to drive unmatched ROI.”

But the key to success is using TikTok effectively. For instance, millennials have an average attention span of just twelve seconds. So it’s critical to immediately capture viewers’ interest. Deferring to creators who know their followers better than anyone is a smart strategy.

The Guide To TikTok Influencer Marketing for CPG Brands dives into granular details on exactly how CPG brands can use creators and TikTok to fast-track their growth. Among the best practices discussed are:
1. Set clear, measurable objectives for campaigns, and select creators who will help you achieve your goals.
2. Generate content that immediately engages audiences by choosing creators who understand your target consumers, allowing you to riff on organic trends.
3. Ensure that content feels authentic by granting creators artistic freedom, while still clearly communicating campaign guidelines.
4. Monitor KPIs at both the campaign and content level in order to identify areas of opportunity.

Done correctly, creator-led marketing on TikTok enables brands to generate awareness, drive revenue and build brand affinity. Consider this: over 90% of TikTok’s 1 billion active monthly users visit the platform multiple times daily, 67% of TikTok users have made spontaneous purchases after discovering products on it, and 73% of TikTok users feel a deeper connection to brands they interact with on the platform.
