Written By Bob Abbott

The most successful brands on TikTok know how to read the room. To become a part of the conversation on TikTok you need to forget your current brand guidelines and adhere to TikTok’s unofficial user guidelines and behave like a native TikTok influencer. That means using real people, being funny, adopting trends, knowing who you’re talking to, and not taking yourself too seriously.

Brands that do this successfully are reaping the rewards and growing huge, loyal communities and fame. If you’re thinking of starting a TikTok channel for your brand, or need some inspiration for an existing TikTok channel, we’ve combed the platform to find the top 10 brands utilizing its fullest potential and mastering its particular angle on viral content.

LITTLE MOONS

Little Moons went viral on TikTok at the beginning of 2021 when people started sharing their trip to ‘Big Tesco’ to find their delicious little mochi ice cream balls. The trend was so popular that Tesco stores across the UK sold out, and Little Moons saw an uplift of over 1200% in sales.

The company’s own TikTok shares really playful content using trending memes and behind-the-scenes content from the family run business.

RYANAIR

Nobody would have expected an airline to own TikTok in the way that Ryanair has. They use their funny and rather savage tone to rip into common customer complaints like not having enough leg room or the crew being too young. You can tell they're using TikTok to get things off their collective chest, but we fully support it… and so do 1.1 million others!

INNOCENT DRINKS

Innocent have a long-standing reputation for being excellent on social media. Their Twitter is already famous for it, but their TikTok team are leveraging the secrets of TikTok success and rapidly closing in, with their brilliant use of trends and conspiratorial jokes about their boss. Innocent nail the TikTok vibe, in that they lead with their personality instead of their product, and as such they’re one of my favourite UK brand accounts to follow.
