Related Theories Review

TikTok is the combination of advantages of product positioning and product

uniqueness (Chen, 2017).

Firstly, from the perspective of product positioning, the app market is

becoming younger. Therefore, the target users in early stage of TikTok are young

between 18 and 38 years old. In the study of Hui in 2017, in terms of product

features, the interface design is divided into recommendation an attention which is

simple and easy to operate thus attractive more target users. According the study of

Zhi in 2018, TikTok achieves an advantageous combination through the optimization

of product positioning’s internal factors. It embodies the complexity of the 4P’s

principle that there are some secondary factors in product positioning and the

optimization of sub-elements can promote the realization of marketing strategies.

Secondly, one of the key point of the combination of internal factors is the

product uniqueness (Li, 2017). The main characteristic of TikTok is music which is

different from other short video apps. According to the study of Jia in 2017, the

analysis of big data can recommend the content that users are interested in

increase users’ stickness through the use of users fragmented time.
