The TikTok Marketing Partner Program showcases experts that empower advertisers to advertise effectively on TikTok and are grouped into four different categories: Campaign Management, Measurement, Creative and Effects.

Shakr is the latest addition to the Creative category. Shakr is unique in their ability to scale high quality videos for Dynamic Showcase Ads, an increasingly requested capability for large TikTok advertisers.

“Dont’ Make Ads, Make TikToks”, at the scale of Dynamic Showcase Ads

“Don’t Make Ads, Make TikToks” has been a fundamental driver for enabling brands to keep audiences engaged with fun, positive, and engaging content. 

Unfortunately, “Don’t Make Ads, Make TikToks” becomes challenging when creating hundreds, thousands and even millions of TikTok videos. This is a painful reality for many advertisers, especially ecomm businesses running Dynamic Showcase Ads with large product catalogs. 

Shakr enables brands to put creativity first, while at the same time meeting the demand for massive scale. The Shakr engine currently renders millions of videos per day, and has increased the number of videos by over 20,000% in the past six months. The company is on pace to produce over 100 million videos this year for some of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms.

“On TikTok,content that feels native to the platform is key to creating an engaging experience. We’re thrilled to be working with best-in-class partners who can help brands to integrate their Product catalogues and create personalized Dynamic Showcase Ads that capture consumers’ attention.”-Gabe Nicolau, Director, Global Head of Vertical Ads Solutions,TikTok

Invest in Creativity first, then scale

In addition to the tremendous scale that Shakr enables, what makes the company unique is its emphasis on creativity. While the company serves brands directly with creative services to build native-looking TikTok templates for scale, it also functions as a scale enabler for in-house creative teams and agencies. 

Shakr templates are designed in Adobe After Effects, and the technology acts as a dynamic layer of intelligence that connects these templates with data sources like product catalogs. As a result, Shakr templates look and feel native to TikTok, and can be designed by any in-house creative teams, creative agencies, or creative partners.

Shakr is Creativity, at the Scale of Infinity

“We founded this company over 10 years ago with clear conviction about the importance of creativity,” shares David Lee, CEO of Shakr. “As the world moves towards a better signal to noise ratio with a greater focus on keeping content experiences relevant, it’s easy for brands to fall into the trap of thinking about performance first. Counterintuitively, by putting creativity first, brands achieve better performance. We now live in an age where there is infinite content available to us, and with an abundance of content, creativity matters. Creativity matters because we’re human, and we value it. It matters because without it, we end up with a tremendous amount of content that no one wants to see. This is why it’s important for brands to put creativity first, especially when delivering content at scale. Shakr is creativity at the scale of infinity.“
