The project
At DDB Aotearoa, we helped launch and scale Samsung New Zealand’s TikTok presence. Building a fast, social-first content engine designed for native TikTok behavior: trends, sound-on storytelling, and creator-style formats.
In a short time, we grew the account to 700K+ followers by January 2025 and millions of engagements, helping make Samsung NZ one of the strongest-performing brand accounts in the market, reflecting the scale and sustained momentum of the channel.
The broader impact extended beyond TikTok: Samsung’s local-first social approach helped drive one of the largest brand social communities in New Zealand, proving that global brands win locally when the content is made for the culture, not translated for the market.
