TikTok users
Although TikTok is often associated with young users, its target audience is significantly broader than many people realize. Today, the platform is used by young adults, established professionals, and older demographics alike.
The age range is broad, and the fastest-growing group consists of adult users. The gender distribution is relatively even, with a slightly higher proportion of women than men. Overall, this makes TikTok an effective channel for reaching a broad and diverse target audience—whether the focus is on consumers, families, or professional users.

Meta Ads (Facebook)
The biggest advantage of Facebook is the ability to reach a large audience on a smaller budget. Because it has so many users, it’s easy to identify different target audiences based on demographics and geography.
Meta Ads (Instagram)
Like Facebook, Instagram has a large user base, which makes it possible to reach a wide audience. Since it is a visual platform, it’s advantageous to use creative ads.
LinkedIn is the easiest platform for reaching B2B audiences—since you can search for specific job titles and companies. This makes it perfect for reaching niche audiences or specific individuals.
Pinterest is perfect if you want to work in a very visual way. It also has many active users and is very cost-effective compared to other popular platforms.
TikTok
TikTok is one of the few platforms where users spend a very long time—on average, they use the app for over 60 minutes. Users also treat the app as their “first screen,” which means they usually give their full attention to what’s being shown.
