| Tell us about your company: |
| We help brands scale on TikTok Shop through short-form content, affiliate strategy, and TikTok Shop optimization. |
| What inspired you to start your business? |
| After scaling Pop Daddy Snacks (a family business we started in our basement 12 years ago) to the #1 food brand on TikTok Shop, other brands began asking for help. I started applying the same strategies for them and when those brands also became the top brands in their categories on TikTok Shop, I realized my TikTok Shop agency could be more than a side business. Since starting JTS Growth 1.5 years ago, we’ve become one of the largest and fastest growing TikTok Shop agencies helping some of the top brands on the platform. |
| What are your proudest achievements so far? |
| Helping my family’s business become the #1 selling food item on TikTok shop. |
