A marketer’s guide to using TikTok effectively

TikTok marketing that resonates with readers.

Course overview 

In this course, we’ll take an in-depth look at TikTok as a marketing tool for publishers. The course will be split into two areas: organic activity and advertising on TikTok. It will feature an overview of the platform’s core audience and demographics, an in-depth exploration of the kind of content you can create and best practices, as well as a deep dive into BookTok and the emerging influencers that can amplify your titles and imprint. 

It will also feature practical examples and case studies from a variety of brands throughout. We’ll look at publishing and non-publishing brands successfully creating a splash on TikTok to inspire you to create engaging content that will promote your titles in a whole new way!

Course outcomes:

  • Understand the basics of marketing on the TikTok platform.
  • Learn the best practices for creating both paid and organic content, specifically for paid advertising and working with influencers.
  • Get inspired with examples from brands and publishers using the platform to inform your campaigns.
  • Navigate the TikTok ads platform and become familiar with how it works.
  • Understand how to set up your ads, repurpose existing content and create authentic ads that resonate with your audience.

Who is this course for?

  • Marketers who are familiar with the TikTok from the user side, but are looking to incorporate the platform into their marketing campaigns.
  • Marketers who are hoping to reach new audiences in 2022, in particular younger generations of readers, and are looking for the practical tools to get started.
  • Publishing hopefuls who would like to learn more about this growing area of the online book community and how marketers can think about tapping into the platform.
