The videos delivered to the audience create a chain between them and the brands. As <strong>Fahad Almaghrabi, Head of Global Business Solutions, Saudi Arabia, at TikTok<\/strong> said, community engagement is a crucial factor to the success of any business.\u00a0<\/p><p>He explained the reasons why using a highly successful platform as TikTok which is based on this concept, maximizes a brand\u2019s outreach to their customers and strengthens their engagement, embracing them as a community.<\/p><p><strong>More specifically, he highlighted that the customer\u2019s journey is no longer bound by time or space.<\/strong> With all the changes that are happening in the region and worldwide, the increase on e-commerce and e-commerce websites, it&#8217;s not about a region anymore. And he added \u201cWe do actually purchase from overseas retailers and the delivery is becoming easier day by day. It&#8217;s not about getting to your audiences anymore.\u00a0<\/p><p>It&#8217;s about <strong>building a conversation with communities <\/strong>who actually will be the advocate for your brand. It&#8217;s an <strong>infinite loop<\/strong> and we want the loop to continue.&#8221;\u00a0 We want to keep engaging with our audiences and communities all over, all the time. 45% of the users actually immediately buy something after they see an ad on the TikTok platform. That&#8217;s almost 1.5 times above the response they have on other platforms.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b75dc28 quotesMss elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b75dc28\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e104e5e\" data-id=\"e104e5e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0faa10 elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d0faa10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; color: #3d3d3d;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"font-size: 15px;\" src=\"https:\/\/retailleaderscircle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/before.png\" \/><em style=\"font-size: 14px; color: var( --e-global-color-text );\"><span style=\"font-size: 15pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Roboto; color: #002144; padding: 0cm; border: 1pt none windowtext;\"><em>It&#8217;s not about getting to your audiences anymore.
