Why us for TikTok training

Our trainers are the strategists, creatives and media buyers who run TikTok for our clients, so the examples in your session are from work we did that month.

We teach from live accounts: the same people run our client channels, our own shows and our TikTok Shops, and they bring that work into the room.

Teams put it into practice: attendees and brands from our sessions went on to make content with over 2 million views and 100,000 engagements within three months.

We hear about changes early: as an official TikTok partner we get new features and format changes before most of the market, and we pass them on.

We build it around your brand: your accounts, your sector and your competitors are the examples, and the practical work uses your products.

After the session

What your team will be able to do afterwards

Every session is built around a set of things your team can do on Monday morning, not a list of topics.

Decide what to make

Choose formats and ideas that fit your brand and your audience, rather than copying what a competitor posted.

Film and edit in the app

Shoot and cut TikToks natively, using effects, sounds, text and stitches properly.

React to a trend in a day

Spot a trend, judge whether it fits and turn it into brand content quickly.

Read the numbers

Know which metrics matter for your goal and what to change when a video underperforms.

Our masterclasses

The three TikTok masterclasses we run

Each one is a half or full day. Most teams start with the first and add the others as they need them.

Masterclass 1

TikTok masterclass

How TikTok works now, how it has changed social media, the types of video you can make and how different approaches suit different objectives. Includes live content creation with review from our team.

Masterclass 2

TikTok content masterclass

A deep dive into what makes a good TikTok. Filming and editing in the app, effects, sounds, duets and stitches, then a brief to make content on the day with a full review afterwards.

Masterclass 3

TikTok advertising masterclass

Setting up an ads account, pixel and audiences, what makes TikTok ads convert in your sector, reading the analytics and running paid alongside your organic content.

What sessions cover

What we cover in TikTok training

The exact mix depends on the masterclass and your team. This is the ground most sessions cover.

How the platform works

The For You feed, TikTok search and TikTok Shop, and what that means for what a brand should post.

Types of video

Green screens, montages, interviews, talking heads, transitions, series and shows, and which suit which goal.

Finding your style

Formats, faces and a tone your team can repeat, so people recognise the brand in the feed.

Working with creators

How to find, brief and manage creators and affiliates, and what good practice looks like.

How sessions run

What a training day with us looks like

Sessions run in person at your office, at our studio in the Midlands, or over video call. Half days and full days both work, and a programme can spread sessions over several months.

We ask for access to your accounts beforehand so the examples are yours, and we set a brief for the practical part using your products. Attendees make content on the day and we review it together.

Everyone leaves with a written playbook for your brand. If you want us to review what the team posts in the weeks after, we agree that as part of the programme.

Before the day

A call about your channels, your team and what you need them to be able to do. Account access so the examples are yours.

On the day

Teaching, discussion, a practical brief and a review of what the team made.

Afterwards

A playbook for your brand, and follow-up reviews if they are part of your programme.

“

The training was universally enjoyed. Colleagues commented that not only was the session informative and practical but also relevant and fun. We have since embarked on the production of many short form videos. Oli's easy manner and clear knowledge of the social media universe meant he was quickly accepted into the team, half of whom may well have wondered what he could teach them and other half terrified they wouldn't be able to do it. Everyone learnt a lot, everyone enjoyed it and we are better skilled as a result.
