Definition

Content Creator: A person who makes and publishes content (video, photo, writing) for an audience, the broad category that includes TikTok Shop affiliates and UGC creators.

Overview

A content creator is anyone who makes and publishes content (video, photo, writing, audio) for an audience. It is the broad umbrella that includes TikTok Shop affiliates, UGC creators, and influencers.

On TikTok Shop, the content creators that matter are the ones producing shoppable short-form video that drives discovery and sales.

How it works

Brands partner with content creators through affiliate deals, gifting, or paid agreements, supply product and direction, and the creators publish content to their audiences or hand it over for the brand to use.

Why it matters

Content creators are the distribution layer of TikTok Shop. The brands that build strong relationships with many creators control more reach and more sales than those relying on their own channels.
