What is TikTok?

TikTok is a video-sharing app which allows users to create and share short-form videos on any topic, think a mini-version of YouTube for your business, with videos ranging from five to sixty seconds in length.

The platform encourages your creativity and helps you inspire your audience using filters, stickers, voiceovers, sound effects and more.

Our TikTok advertising services.

Our award-winning TikTok agency supports you with TikTok’s paid ads, giving you a head start on the competition while helping you to promote your products effectively. Explore our TikTok services below.

In-Feed Ads

Video designed to inspire your target audience. Displayed within the native news feed, we create In-Feed Ads alongside the organic TikTok posts, fuelling Interactions with your users.

We add clear CTAs to drive action to your site, catching those all-important leads.

Brand Takeover Ads

Generate awareness and drive sales with our Brand Takeover Ads. Like In-Feed Ads, Brand Takeovers will appear when your targeted users open the app and within their For You Page as still images, videos, or gifs with clickable links to a TikTok landing page.

Although expensive, they are great value for building brand awareness.

TopView Ads

Subtly increase brand exposure with our TopView ads. Working similarly to Brand Takeover ads, TopView Ads will occupy your users’ first in-feed post after three seconds rather than when they first sign in to TikTok.

Think of them as your Tik Tok campaign’s plan B for Brand Takeovers.

Branded Hashtag Ads

Another advert on TikTok, Branded Hashtags, is an option for boosting engagement and brand awareness. Partner with us and create a fun, engaging campaign encouraging your audience to create user-generated content to promote your business.

Start a hashtag challenge and go viral with LOCALiQ.

Branded Effects Ads

Partner with us, and we will help you design an advert with your custom filter on the app, lasting up to ten days – these ads are a great way to increase user engagement.

Stickers, AR Effects and branded lenses, the possibilities are endless for your business.

Spark Ads

Boost your popular organic posts with TikTok’s Spark Ads. We help you analyse your previous posts and build authentic engagement with your audience, promoting existing content which hits the spot.

With no advertising restrictions, we ensure your content lands with an engaged audience.
