Under "Viral Trends"

New Section "Influencer Brand Opportunities from the Platform"
[edit]Tiktok has provided a platform for users to create content not only for fun, but also for monetary gain. As the platform has grown significantly over the past few years, it's allowed companies to advertise and rapidly reach their intended demographic through influencer marketing, additionally contributing to the entrepreneurial growth of influencers on the platform.[3] The platform's AI algorithm also contributes to the influencer marketing potential, as it picks out content authentic to the user's preference.[4] Sponsored content isn't as prevalent on the platform as it is on other social media apps, but brands and influencers still can make as much as they would if not more in comparison to other platforms.[4] Influencers on the platform who earn money through engagement, such as likes and comments, are referred to as "meme machines".[3]
