TikTok Live has quickly become the go-to platform for creators and influencers, outpacing Instagram Live. So, what makes TikTok Live the preferred choice? 1. TikTok Live offers unique features that make it more appealing. Creators can host LIVE Events to generate excitement and engage their audience ahead of time. 2. The real game-changer is the gift function, allowing viewers to send virtual gifts that convert into real money. This feature also enables creators to participate in battles, where audiences send gifts to support their favorite creators, boosting their earnings. These elements encourage creators to stay live longer, fostering deeper connections and more authentic interactions with their audiences. The combination of engagement and monetization makes TikTok Live a dynamic and lucrative space for influencers. While Instagram has its own gifts feature, TikTok Live has a key advantage: it shows up on users' For You Page (FYP). This means TikTok Live is more likely to be discovered by users, making it easier for them to find and join live streams, whether they know the creator or are just intrigued by the content. Brands and marketers should take note: TikTok Live offers a compelling blend of visibility, engagement, and monetization that could reshape influencer strategies.

Our co-founder Ramaa Mosley breaks down what sets VP Kamala Harris' presidential campaign apart: It’s all about relatability, authenticity, and connecting with younger voters on a personal level. While some campaigns stick to a more serious tone, Kamala Harris’ use of memes and light-hearted content makes her feel more approachable and relatable. Her speeches at the DNC also demonstrate her ability to balance this with a focus on key issues, showing young voters she’s committed to causes they care about. In a time when voters, especially younger ones, crave genuine connections, this strategy highlights the power of authenticity and engagement in today’s digital landscape. It’s a valuable reminder for all of us to consider how we’re connecting with our own audiences and fostering real engagement.

Instagram’s new feature is bringing back some major Myspace vibes! Users can now add a song to their profile. With many younger users moving away from traditional posts and engaging more through Stories and Close Friends, this update could be Instagram’s way of making profiles feel more dynamic and personal again. Whether it’s a song they’ve had on repeat all summer or one that perfectly captures their mood, this feature lets them tell a story without saying a word. For brands, while you may not have this feature, it’s a great moment to rethink how you connect with younger audiences. Understanding their preferences for self-expression through music and culture could open up new ways to engage authentically.

UGC isn’t a new concept, but it's a crucial element in many brands' social media strategies. While opinions may vary, the results are undeniable. When UGC is paired with audience feedback, it can drive significant wins, turning users into loyal customers and brand advocates. In today’s marketing landscape, particularly with Gen Z, traditional product marketing often falls short. Gen Z values authenticity, trust, and community—qualities that UGC delivers in spades. Brands like REFY Beauty, Crocs, and Away are leading the way by embracing UGC and leveraging it to build stronger connections with their audiences.

It isn’t 2016 anymore - flex culture is dead, overconsumption is an ick, and relatability is more important than ever. In today’s climate, the extravagance of celebrity endorsements can alienate youth audiences. Even influencers who were once seen as relatable start to feel distant when their follower counts become excessively high. With the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, brands need to be thoughtful when selecting brand ambassadors. Rather than pursuing macro-influencers with huge followings, brands should focus on building relationships with #microinfluencers whose interests align closely with the brand. Here are six key marketing #insights to inspire your next ad campaign targeting #GenZ:
