Timpany说,这是将新产品推向消费者面前的一种有效方式他说“在传统的电子商务渠道中,你很难做到这一点,因为你受到人们在搜索栏中输入的内容的限制英国抖音店的运营负责人简威尔克说“关键在于发现”然而,其他公司对这个想法犹豫不决运动服装品牌GymShark严重依赖影响力营销来提升自己的知名度,该公司已暂停通过TikTok直接销售负责该公司品牌战略的诺埃尔麦克NoelMack说,这是因为抖音店的重点是以极低的折扣销售产品有影响力的人也需要更多的说服,他们的内容有助于抖音他们可能很乐意代表品牌推广产品,并收取费用,但许多人不愿意推销TikTokShop上通常能找到的廉价商品西方的社交媒体用户对扮演推销员的有影响力的人越来越怀疑影响者营销机构SESAMY的创始人萨曼莎•伯格曼说“追随者变得聪明多了”“你再也不能卖给他们一些不符合你品牌的东西了高盛银行的埃里克•谢里登解释说“行业的流行词是‘真实性”在推销毛绒玩具时,这可能很难保持。
