You’re Invited!

The pandemic turned our lives upside down, but despite all of its challenges, we dug deep and pulled through, together. And it was small businesses that led the way. You worked tirelessly to keep your communities fed, employed, and supported, all while fighting to keep your own doors open.

In celebration of the brighter days and grand re-openings ahead, TikTok is excited to invite you to the Small Biz Block Party.

But don't take our word for it...

  • We were just about ready to shut our doors, and then our video went viral on TikTok and wiped out our entire website. My wife and I were just crying. We thought we lost everything, and TikTok saved our business.

  • The magic of TikTok is that it's such a warm community... Its like a big small town— a small town where I want to live — and I really want to know my neighbors!

  • The pandemic almost shut down my business, until we found TikTok. I have up to 1,000 orders a day — my employees never had to pull orders the way they do now.
