South African content creators are in for a treat as the brand continues to expand its presence in South Africa. Now, TikTok has launched a partnership with Webfluential.com to help connect brands to content creators on the platform.
Both brands and agencies are now officially able to collaborate with TikTok creators at a commercial level, based on the reach, resonance and relevance of these influencers.
“TikTok’s unique creator engagement solutions and immersive formats reach and engage audiences in innovative new ways. We selected Webfluential as our partner in Africa to bring our offering to African brands and agencies at scale”, says Boniswa Sidwaba, TikTok Content Operations Manager, Africa.
Greg Bailie, Lead Client Partner at Webfluential South Africa adds “TikTok enables creator-led brand engagement that is relatable and authentic, simple and entertaining allowing brands to supercharge audience engagement.
