Kitsch turned TikTok Shop into a major distribution channel after seeing its Grinch Hair Perfume jump from roughly 50 units to 2,000 units sold per day within the first few days of launch. Chief Marketing Officer Yingying Kuang shares how the brand went on to sell more than 30,000 units of its Air Dry Cream in just a few months and replicated that momentum across categories, including its Set & Flow Heatless Curler, which became the number one hair accessory on TikTok Shop for several weeks.
Yingying explains how Kitsch built the infrastructure to capitalize on viral moments rather than trying to manufacture them. From treating creators like an extension of the internal team to testing culturally relevant bundles and preparing fulfillment capacity ahead of peak demand, Kitsch has built its TikTok Shop strategy around creators, rapid experimentation, and operational readiness. That preparation became especially important after last year's holiday season brought roughly four times more daily TikTok Shop orders than the team expected.
