Chinese suppliers are dominating TikTok right now 😂
When Trump hit Chinese goods with extra tariffs, the goal was to push companies away from China.
Didn’t work.
Instead of going through brands like Zara or Lululemon, Chinese factories just went direct-to-consumer via TikTok.
Slick content. High-end visuals. Direct shipping. No middlemen. No big taxes.
Same factories. New distribution.
China adapted through content.The U.S. responded with policy.
Tells you everything you need to know about winning in 2025:
Distribution = Screens. Influence = Attention.
Still laughing at people building personal brands?
You’re in for a rough decade.
