Celebrating the most impactful, authentic, and creative Australian campaigns, the TikTok Ad Awards are back with entries opening today with a new award celebrating Aussie SMBs.
Hosted annually, the awards celebrate clients and partners who have delivered groundbreaking results through high-performing paid ad campaigns on TikTok, recognising leaders who are inspiring creativity and bringing joy to our community.
“Whether it’s for an SMB, an established Australian brand, or a new disruptor entering the market, TikTok is the home of effective marketing campaigns that help brands connect with consumers and grow their business.” said Brett Armstrong, general manager of global business solutions for Australia & New Zealand at TikTok.
“Our new category, the Greatest Small Business Award, celebrates the 350,000 small businesses of all shapes and sizes on TikTok that are making a significant impact through paid advertising. Our partners continue to push the boundaries of creativity, delivering outstanding campaigns, and I’m excited to see the quality of entries this year,” added Brett.
