NaturalAnnie Essentials, a soy candle and aromatherapy company in Bridgeport, Connecticut, needed to “capture new business.” Founder Annya White-Brown jumped on TikTok when "bored in the house" videos were trending in 2020. But she didn't know what to do or expect when she tried to post a video with her husband and kids. “I knew I wanted my brand to be part of a platform in a way that was true to us,” says White-Brown.

At first, the family’s videos didn’t gain much traction. But the combination of adding sound to the behind-the-scenes shenanigans at their work studio, using a mix of home decor and lifestyle hashtags and using trending TikTok videos was essential to organically targeting and growing their 5,000-plus candle-loving community. White-Brown’s audience continues to expand thanks to TikTok’s paid ads in her marketing, which White-Brown says accounted for 30 percent of NaturalAnnie Essentials’ social media platform sales.
