TikTok's GirlBossTown Robyn DelMonte Talks Building Successful Social Media Brands
Public relations expert and successful TikToker Robyn DelMonte joined Cheddar News to provide some insight into effective strategies for building a brand through social media. She noted that engagement with consumers is critical, and brands that are looking to promote online have to actually be online themselves. "You can tell when a business, a brand, or a celebrity is a part of their own audience and connecting with their community versus when they're just trying things that they think are trendy and cool or at the moment," she said.
American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days. Many companies delayed or canceled orders after President Donald Trump last month put a 145% tariff on items made in China. Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months. The temporary truce was announced as retailers and their suppliers are looking to finalize their plans and orders for the holiday shopping season. They’re concerned a mad scramble to get goods onto ships will lead to bottlenecks and increased shipping costs.
