On TikTok, the objective of a sponsored partnership is to get an influencer to partner with to help drive more engagement from the community of creators as a whole. Posts from influencers on TikTok helps to promote a product/business while motivating other community members to join in the experience. It is important to note that once an influencer’s audience participates actively in a promoted challenge, they automatically become a part of the influencer campaign, promoting the same content to their audiences.

Setting up a TikTok influencer campaign involves;

  • Choosing a TikTok influencer campaign type- This could include;
  • TikTok challenges– A fast way to gain viral attraction, especially when millions of users actively participate by recreating the original video.
  • Dances- Dance routines are structured in such a way as to be recreated by each user using a consistent theme song.
  • Duets- This helps a TikTok user collaborate directly with a post already existing post by creating a side-by-side video with content typifying the original piece.
