Each creator put their own spin on the brief, producing ‘mini episodes’ from popular Ramadan genres, such as romance, drama, horror and comedy. From dramatic monologues to  declarations of true love, each creator found humorous, seasonally relatable ways to introduce the product in their own authentic styles. 

TikTok Creator Marketplace helped the toothpaste brand find the right creators, whose storytelling ability compelled viewers to watch longer. In fact, Colgate’s creator content achieved far better video completion rates compared to shorter branded content from the same campaign.

For Colgate, partnering with the right creators and developing the right content on TikTok during Ramadan enabled the brand to reach consumers in Saudi Arabia in a relatable, authentic and entertaining way, while still driving big results.

The campaign was divided into three key phases: 

• Kit Kat kicked off the debate
• Creators responded to the brand with their own ways of enjoying the treat
• The conversation continued via creator duets and debates in the comment section

DCT collaborated with the creator Vlada, better known by her TikTok handle @notyourlocalhabibi, who is known for her comedic and relatable videos. To show just how Abu Dhabi is the perfect destination for travelers of all ages, Vlada was paired with the “coolest Grandma" who gamely participated in travel activities (including “burning rubber" behind the wheel at the Formula One race track!).

The last destination was the Al Ain Palace to celebrate Eid! Wearing beautiful abaya dresses, the ladies explored the majestic halls and pathways of the luxurious 4-star hotel. They also handed eidiya to children (gifts traditionally handed by older relatives to children during Eid) and enjoyed some authentic Emirati food.

Celebrating a religious holiday while immersing in the local culture was the perfect way to end the fun TikTok video series. To amplify reach, DCT leveraged Spark Ads to boost the creator videos targeted towards users who were interested in travel.

Compared to industry benchmarks, the campaign had a 125% increase in view-through rate, with many of the viewers engaging with the videos and leaving comments. From a cost efficiency standpoint, DCT also saw a 75% decrease in cost-per-view, proving that creator-led content was effective in maximizing advertising budget.

Each creator showcased the app and its selection of sports and entertainment titles. These include international blockbusters like Spider-Man: No Way Home and The Matrix Resurrections or popular TV shows like Pretty Little Liars and Gossip Girl. For football enthusiasts, the creators also made sure to highlight the UEFA Champions League matches.

Once all creator videos were approved and live, the brand worked with the TikTok team to ensure the videos were reaching as many relevant users as possible. This was done through Spark Ads, which allowed the brand to “boost" creator videos to reach a wider audience without losing the videos' organic feel.

Targeting optimizations were also implemented through lookalike audiences, making sure the campaign reached users who are more likely to download the app.

Because TikTok creators drive authentic connections with their communities, the campaign also had a 50% video completion rate that was 128% higher than industry benchmark.

Close Up oral hygiene products are all about giving customers the ‘confidence to get close’. For the toothpaste brand’s collaboration, the content showed creators in first date scenarios with a voiceover revealing their inner thoughts, building to the moment they detect their date's bad breath. 

With this humorous date-gone-wrong concept in mind, the brand utilised TTCM to collaborate with creators that would bring comedic value, helping them tap into target audiences. 

On TTCM, granular search filters enable brands to select the right creators: from audience country and size, to specific interests and keywords; like comedy, for example. For Close Up, creators @taghreed.e, @bassantm.dinar, @mooredaa and @farahharidy all brought their own humorous spin to the content, driving product awareness and boosting engagement among their audiences. With TTCM, Close Up also boosted the content with Spark Ads, maximising reach and promoting its products with funny, relatable content. 

By utilising a Brand Lift Study, Close Up was able to measure the impact of its creator collaborations through TTCM. Across the campaign, the storytelling content resonated with the target audience, meaning the brand saw significant uplift in Ad Recall.

The collaborations also drove action: Close Up measured +3.7% intent uplift. By utilising TTCM, the brand was able to find the right creators to tap into engaged audiences, delivering a strong message about their products in an authentic, playful way.

TikTok Creator Marketplace (TTCM) makes it easy for brands to find the right creators to collaborate with. This is key for ensuring the content produced feels authentic and reaches the right TikTok communities. 

For Decathlon, using TTCM helped them find a range of sporty creators, enabling the brand to reach a variety of audiences: from occasional exercisers, to fully-fledged fitness enthusiasts.

Across the collaborations, creators brought their own style. One creator showed how she stays active as a mum and gets her son moving, too – from beach days to playing football in the garden. Another visited a Decathlon store to showcase the variety of products on the shelves. And two of the creators showed how they use the retailer’s products with positive messages around exercise, from “Staying active is not boring”, to “Healthy body = healthy mind”. 

With TTCM, Decathlon was able to easily boost content from this collaboration with Spark Ads – driving further reach and promoting the brand with ad content that felt authentic. 

By boosting the creator content with Spark Ads, Decathlon saw lower costs, higher engagement and higher ad recall. Creator content through this collaboration also received a huge 71% increase in view-through rate, demonstrating the impact of selecting the right creators for relevant, high-quality authentic content.
