Bravery that breaks through

In 2024, the TikTok community will ignite a transformative mindset fueled by curiosity, imagination, vulnerability and courage. In fact, taking strategic risks and being vulnerable is now the ultimate brand strategy, where leaning into micro insights and showcasing quirks can be your superpower. The unknown and uncomfortable is what creates the unimaginable - and those brave enough to create for it won't just keep up, they'll flourish.

Curiosity peaked

Trend force 1

People come to TikTok looking for more than a single "right answer." Every curiosity and interest reaches its "peak" on TikTok, leading to relevant perspectives and uncharted rabbit holes. Spark action during your audience's discovery journey on TikTok by digging into the communities they're already a part of and creating content that aligns with their needs and curiosities.

Users are 1.8x more likely to agree that TikTok introduces them to new topics they didn't even know they liked.

Storytelling unhinged

Trend force 2

TikTok is a place where diverse voices, collaborative formats, and subject matters have flipped everything we know about traditional storytelling on its head. Content on TikTok is designed to be reinterpreted and built upon, so mobilize our community and give them an equal seat at the table to shape your brand’s identity and narrative.

Intriguing narrative structures guide viewers past the first few seconds - ads intended to make users curious keep them watching 1.4x longer.

Bridging the trust gap

Trend force 3

On TikTok, brands have an open line of communication with their consumers and community, and can leverage creators as shortcuts. Each campaign and organic piece of content is an opportunity to share, listen, and learn, building brand trust and values together to generate deeper loyalty on and off-platform.

After seeing an ad on TikTok, viewers trust the brand 41% more and are 31% more likely to be loyal to the brand.
