Marketing with TikTok

 TikTok is originally a Chinese-based app and has now moved nationwide in the previous years. By 2018 it because the 3rd most downloaded app in the world. I personally think TikTok is a great way for business to build their brands and help promote awareness. In recent years, marketing on TikTok has definitely risen. I believe this has risen because of the popularity of the app. Pretty much everyone I know owns TikTok and is on it very frequently. I catch myself staring at my phone scrolling through TikTok for hours at a time. It is a very addicting social media app that businesses can help users in their favor. Recently, I have started to see more ads pop up on my page than usual. Ever since I got the app last year the amounts of advertisements by the business have risen at a high rate. Another thing I have noticed recently is the number of businesses that is partnering up with well-known creators to help get their product awareness and to gain popularity. If people see their favorite TikTok star liking and using a product or business, then more customers are more likely to purchase it and use it also. According to Essentials of Social Media Marketing, over 1,000 major brands are using the app to help build their brand and 47% of users have stated that they have bought something that they saw on the app. That means for all the users on TikTok about one-half of them have bought something they have seen. That is a very efficient way of marketing and advertising your product and I expect more marketing and advertising to go through TikTok in the coming years.

  1. Noah, i find it so crazy how TikTok blew up over the quarantine. Now that TikTok has become very popular, i'm starting to see a bunch of people use the platform to market their brand. I have purchased some self-made clothing products that I found through TikTok. I agree when you stated that you catch yourself scrolling though TikTok for hours. Good work Noah!

Chapter 1 Material

One of the biggest concepts I comprehended out of the content in chapter one of the introduction of social media is the different advantages and disadvantages of social media. I want to focus on the advantages. Some of the advantages of social media include being able to build your brand, communicating with family and friends, and capturing memories. The most important advantage from the chapter for me is being able to connect with family and friends while also collecting memories along the way. Family and friends are two of the biggest components of my life and they always will be. Being away from my family and friends during college can be very stressful. I am very guilty of relying on my mom and dad to do many things for me. Even though I am a sophomore now, I still am trying to adapt and settle in to do things on my own. Even though I struggle at times, the access to social media has given me the opportunity to connect with my family and friends so I feel like I have a little bit o...

Fall Break

 This past weekend and Monday and Tuesday we had a much-needed fall break. Our bye week for football also fell on this weekend so I was able to go home for about four days. It was so good to be home. My brother was home from college, so the whole family was home. Football and school can be very stressful so it was nice to get away from it all for a weekend.  I honestly didn't do anything over this break. It was so nice. At school, I am always on the go and it never stops moving. No matter what day of the week it is, I am always busy and on the run, so it was nice to just relax and not have to worry about doing anything over the break. On Friday, I went to my alma mater's football game. I went to Coldwater High School in Coldwater, OH and we are having a pretty good year. It was nice to go and watch some of my former teammates play so well and to continue to have a good year. We were able to grind out another victory to go 8-0. On Saturday and Sunday, I barely moved. I literall...

Dealing with Stress

 It is getting to the point in the semester where things are starting to add up. Not only academic-wise but in personal life as well. As you already know, in my previous blog post, I talked about my baseball coach that suddenly passed away. This obviously wasn't very easy on me, as I struggled throughout the week to focus on school and other things. Also, schoolwork has started to amount to me. I have been having exams in some classes that are difficult, that I actually have to study for. Throughout my first 2 years of college, I never had to study for any exams, because my classes just came easy to me. This semester, I am in some more challenging courses that are causing some stress for me. If you are experiencing any type of stress, it is important to acknowledge some mechanisms to help you.  If you are experiencing an extreme amount of stress, there are always campus resources available. Here at ONU, we have a counseling center that will help you if you are in need. Another...
