I've been hearing about this app lately from other social media channels and it seems like this could well be the next upcoming social app.
TikTok Tops App Charts, Beating Out YouTube, Facebook, Instagram In Number Of October Downloads - Tubefilter
TikTok App Nears 80 Million U.S. Downloads After Phasing Out Musical.ly, Lands Jimmy Fallon as Fan
Assuming that it's growth continues at this rate, it could eventually blow up to become really big once it becomes mainstream in the US. The existing numbers are pretty impressive imo.
Their user base seems to be even younger than IG : mostly teens to early 20s.
Because the ads (if there are any) on this relatively new thing are not saturated yet, this can be a good time to start an account there to learn the ins-and-outs of how to make use of it for business (read: low ad cost) before it gets saturated like IG (kinda like how you wish you started in the early days of IG and building a base there).
I can actually see how to profit from this in terms of gaining reach and awareness from this app, and driving traffic to my site and/or IG account, but first.....gotta check if it's safe to use teens as influencers lol.
Of course, depending on the nature of your business, this may not be for you.
The content in the app are mostly young folks doing silly cringey stuff all to gain attention, so if you're an oldie, please stay away cos' it will:
1) Make your blood boil
2) Shake your head in disgust
3) Puke
lol
