And it might just blow up in 2023 (in a good way). It is a bold move into the e-commerce space. But for the social media behemoth, it is a very strategic and brilliant move. Why? Gen Z users are using TikTok as their default go-to search engine instead of Google. That also means more and more people are using TikTok for search and discovery. So after being entertained by a dancer moving to the latest Korean hit music, you can search for the dress she is wearing. Imagine watching a viral TikTok on tidying up your kitchen. Then being able to directly purchase those containers and cute glass jars right on TikTok Shop. Isn’t that amazing?TikTok is growing like wildfire on a global scale.It just makes sense. More and more people in our generation are growing up accustomed to fast-culture. Everything is fast and convenience is a priority. Sorry if your website takes a second longer to load. We aren’t waiting. Sorry if you can’t ship it to me in 2 hours. We aren’t waiting. Sorry if your videos are a second too long. We aren’t waiting. TikTok is killing it because it understands what the younger generation wants and it goes bananas on it. Short, sharp, sweet and to the point. That’s the modus operandi of one of the fastest growing social media platforms in the world.Who can challenge TikTok’s reign in 2023?The videos are super interesting, straight to the crux of what matters, the musical beats that tunes in are so catchy and the ease of discovery is baked into how effortless the scrolling is. The result? You get stuck scrolling TikTok on your phone for hours. Joyscrolling — the act of scrolling social media endlessly, addicted to seeing things that make you chuckle and happy. TikTok is smart. They are trying to ride the burgeoning wave of online shopping and content creation. They grew exponentially over the last few years and dominated our attention. Now, with that attention, they are leveraging on e-commerce to extract more value from their existing customer base.TikTok is a social phenomenon that nobody can ignore anymore.If they can sort out the logistics and provide adequate support for the local sellers to grow on their platform, they will succeed quite well. After all, ask any e-commerce seller and they will tell you it is the attention and eyeballs that matter most. TikTok is an attention magnet that sucks up all the free time our generation has to offer. Between the insatiable thirst that our generation has for content and the powerful capability of TikTok’s algorithms, I think TikTok Shop will do very well in the short-run. - Will TikTok Shop be successful? - #startups #business #startupx #growth #success #socialmedia #culture #entrepreneurship #strategy #eth #btc #tiktok #tiktokshop #logistics #eccommerce #viral #content #onlineshopping ## Publication Information - [Durwin](https://paragraph.com/@durwin/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@durwin/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@durwin): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/DurwinHo): Follow on Twitter
