First and foremost, TikTok is a visual-first platform that is perfect for showcasing products. CPG brands can use the platform to create engaging, creative content that highlights their products in action, giving potential customers a better sense of what they can expect. Additionally, TikTok’s short-form video format allows brands to quickly and easily share a wide range of content, from product demonstrations to behind-the-scenes footage.
Another critical advantage of TikTok is that it is a highly engaged platform. Users spend an average of 52 minutes daily on the app, meaning that brands have a captive audience for their content. Additionally, TikTok’s algorithm is designed to surface content that is likely to be engaging, which means that brands can reach a large audience with minimal effort.
TikTok also provides a wide range of targeting options that allow brands to reach specific demographics, such as age, location, and interests. This means that brands can create content tailored to their target audience’s interests and needs, which can help increase engagement and drive sales.

Another important feature of TikTok is its ability to generate user-generated content (UGC), a powerful marketing tool that can help build trust with potential customers. TikTok’s “duet” feature, which allows users to add their own videos to existing content, makes it easy for brands to encourage customers to create and share their own content featuring their products. This can be a powerful way to build brand awareness and loyalty and increase sales.
