“Letting go can be good.”
Watch a preview of this Digiday+ Talk below and hear why EOS offers influencers more creative control of their paid TikTok campaign content.
Skincare brand EOS is in its “sophomore” phase of advertising on TikTok, according to the company’s chief marketing officer Soyoung Kang.
One of the first brands to invest in marketing campaigns on the social platform, Kang said that her team has learned a lot about how to run its own channel — the brand now has 222,000 followers on the platform — but also how to execute a successful paid campaign.
“A lot of brands are still thinking of TikTok as ‘that dance app.’ I encourage marketers to think about it more broadly because it’s really evolved significantly beyond that,” said Kang.
As with any algorithm-based platform, Kang said “it’s hard to predict what will go viral.” However, the strength of TikTok is that by partnering with its top content creators and using an influencer model, marketers have the ability to tap into their creative style and platform knowledge as well.
