MUSICAL.LYS/ TIKTOK FOR MARKETERS?

Brands are already using Musical.ly in their promotion campaigns with the help of young content creators. Musers like Baby Ariel, Lisa & Lena have high engagement rates and also maintain millions of followers on their Instagram profile. This gives brands another opportunity to promote their products.

Gen Z consumers are also hyperactive social media users who leverage platforms as tools to learn about new products and make purchasing decisions.

As such, Musical.ly’s impressive start is perfect for advertisers looking to deliver messages to a young, female, and mobile-focused population of consumers. This is because Musically/Tiktok is a unique platform where it attracts very specific sub-demographic and is more popular among younger female audience between the ages of 13-24-years, unlike Instagram and Facebook. This is why reports suggested that Facebook has plans to take on Musical.ly, with its own lip-syncing feature.
