All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tik Tok Shop Operators Summit. For those of you who are here, there are tons of you guys. There is over 1,100 brands that are signed up to be here today. This is going to be absolutely wild. Our goal at Social Commerce Club is to out educate everybody else in the space and really help you guys understand how to actually scale on Tik Tok Shop in 2026 and beyond. That is really the big thing. So, again, I'm going to be having the chat open right beside me the entire time today. I have, I believe, 12 speakers on today. The the entire sort of flow of what today is going to look like is going to be really going from setup all the way into scale at the end. At the end of this today, between 1:00 p.m. Pacific and 2:00 p.m. Pacific, I'm going to be bringing some special guests on for a live Q&A. So, if you guys have questions throughout the day, we're going to take all of those questions and I and I kind of doubt that you will not have questions throughout the day. But, if you have questions throughout the day, make sure to come between 1:00 and 2:00. That's when we're going to have a full Q&A with some of the Social Commerce Club team, with some of the speakers that we have today. And really, again, the entire goal of today is to help you guys scale on Tik Tok Shop. I'm super super looking forward to it. If you can see also down here, I have QR codes here for my Mastermind and to book a call with my Social Commerce Club team down below. This is not a big, you know, pitch fest or anything like that. Really, at the end of the day at SEC, we just want to bring you guys the best information out there that we have found with Tik Tok Shop. So, again, I'm going to be asking tons of questions on the side as we go along. I love the interaction and it looks like it's already crazy. Let's get into this today. Guys, my name is Jordan West. Again, at Social Commerce Club, we were one of the first Tik Tok Shop agencies to really come in and scale in a meaningful way. We're now a part of Puddin and Puddin is an incredible company to be a part of. We're in 21 geographies stretching all across the globe and continuing to grow. Um It's really, really exciting for us there. Here's a picture of me. Owned eight different brands over the years, so I really come at this from a brand owner perspective. Mostly in the apparel space. And so that's really where I came from. When I first saw TikTok Shop, I almost immediately understood that this would be the next massive channel because it took It took all of the principles of what makes marketing work and put it all together in one big channel. I had a previous agency before Social Commerce Club that was really focused in the D2C space, but it's always been on demand generation. So it's really fun being a part of Pacsun, which is one of the biggest global independent or sorry, the biggest global independent marketplace agency out there that is all about all of the marketplaces where a lot of the demand capture happens. I know one of the questions that is going to be asked Oh, it looks like it's being asked right now. Will this be recorded? Absolutely. We're actually live streaming this onto YouTube at the same time as well. Um, and if you were on phone, you might actually be able to watch this better either on X or on LinkedIn or maybe even on YouTube. So just so you guys have an idea. Here's a bunch of brands that we work with. There's many, many more at Social Commerce Club. So just so you guys have an idea, I'm not just talking about this from like, I don't know, ChatGPT or something. We do this. We work with some of the biggest brands in the world. Some I can't even put on here, which is crazy. Here is why I am obsessed with this and I recently got some of this data from my friends over at Final Loop, Final Loop, however you want to call it. I got this data from their new MCP. So basically through AI, we're actually able to get a lot of this data from their entire cohort of brands. So they have tens of in the tens of thousands of brands that they work with. And here is what is absolutely shocking and why This is the the absolute shocking thing here. Brands that did a million dollars or more on TikTok Shop in the last 12 months. Right? So this is not a million dollars a month. This is a million dollars over the last 12 months. So not massive, right? Uh per month. Here is what it looks like as far as revenue is concerned. Their revenue, their overall business revenue, cuz remember Fineloop has all of that data for their entire revenue stack, so this is across all marketplaces, their dot com, everything. What is up 61 and a half percent versus the broader portfolio, which is also very encouraging, which is 19.6% So, 3.1x more for brands that are on TikTok Shop. The contribution margin is 90% cuz really at the end of the day, 90% is massive. They're up 90% 3.9x more than the other brands, which is just wild, right? Their EBITDA up 116% So 3.4x. So, the brands that are scaling on TikTok Shop are generally doing incredibly better than the brands that are not on TikTok Shop. And again, this is why I am absolutely obsessed with this as a channel. And why today I'm going to help you guys go through with the speakers that I have, with some of our team, we're going to go through how to do this, right? At the end of the day, that's the question that everyone is asking is like, how do we actually scale? How do we get to that that six-figure monthly and then beyond that, right? We have a lot of clients that we work with at Social Commerce Club that are well beyond that in the seven-figure. I just wanted to throw this slide in. It's the basically the same sort of idea, but wanted to show you guys why this matters so much and why TikTok Shop scaled brands are winning today, right? [snorts] So, number one, creators can show why your product actually matters. This is the thing that matters more than anything. Creators understand your product more than anybody. Uh really at the end of the day, they're incentivized to be able to sell your product across here. Creators understand that their entire job, the only way that creators get paid is when they sell your product. And this is why it matters. If we look back, I'm actually doing a keynote next week down in San Diego, and if we look over there into the keynote, I'm going to be talking about why this is really a principles thing at the end of the day. In Scientific Advertising, Claude Hopkins talks about how a useful demonstration is basically more valuable than anything that you say about your brand. And that is what creators actually do, which is just the best. One piece of content does the entire job. At the end of the day, the you guys who are here for agencies and you're here for brands, your entire job is to help your brands create more content that does this entire job. When I first had brands and first owned brands, I it was crazy to me how many different steps we had to get them to take. When we think about the early days of D2C and in the sort of dot com era, during that time getting people over to your website, there was a lot of friction. And what is happening right now is that places like TikTok Shop and Amazon and Walmart and Target and all of these places are really taking away a ton of that friction. And so now one piece of content does the entire job that you used to have to do along the way and you used to have to have have in there. And TikTok is really doing all of that for us, which is massive. Entertainment, right, on the on the front side. Demonstration, like I said, if you get anything from this talk, just remember demonstration is so incredibly valuable for your brand. Demonstration, testimonials on that other side, the ad portion all within there. Think of TikTok Shop as the next sort of global way for for customers to purchase on the platform. Now, one thing I don't actually have this in the slide. And one thing that I want to make sure that everyone understands is that on TikTok Shop, your customer is not the customer. Your customer is the creator who is creating content for you. All of the leverage is happening here, right? The entire amount of leverage is happening with the creator who then is only incentivized to sell your product and figure out for their audience and for their life, things that you may have never even known about your product. We were again at Social Commerce Club. We work with a lot of really big brands and at the end of the day, we're finding a ton of new advertising, marketing, messaging sort of ideas for the brands that we work with, which is really, really cool. So, today what you are going to leave with. You're going to leave with a launch plan. You're going to leave with a creator plan, which is really absolutely massive and you're going to leave with a growth plan. So, if you're scaling, if you're already at six figures, maybe you're at seven figures, you are going to learn something today that is going to take you to that next level. We're really, really excited for this at Social Commerce Club and all of the different speakers that I have on today. Again, if at any point you're like, "Oh man, I just need to figure out like, you know, somebody to do this with." I've got a mastermind that has about 60 members in it right now where every single week we go through the big issues that they're facing. So, here's the link to that and then on the other side, here's a call QR code to book a call with our team.
