TikTok Strategy Summary
How the Ad Council partnered with Llama Lead Gen to create one of the largest digital marketing campaigns in history.
Discover how Llama Lead Gen worked with the Ad Council to inform and educate vaccine hesitant audiences about the COVID-19 vaccine and drive traffic to reputable sources from which to conduct research in one of the largest digital marketing campaigns in history.

TikTok is the fastest growing social media platform for Gen Z and millennial audiences and was therefore essential to add to the overall marketing mix for this campaign. Overall campaign performance/engagement was higher than expected across our broad categories of young adults and conservative audiences. In fact, TikTok was the highest overall performing channel in the strategy.

Although the COVID-19 Vaccine Education campaign was still fairly new when Llama Lead Gen team was onboarded, I think it’s fair to say that we have had fantastic success with this campaign. The campaign has far and away exceeded expectations. To date, the campaign has generated $3.68M in spend, 497.7M impressions, 148.7M users reached, and 732.4K sessions to the website.
