About us

Built by operators, not theorists

We are a TikTok Shop agency run by people who actually run shops, not a deck of theories you have to make work yourself.

Operators, by the numbers

We have run this play across dozens of brands. The metrics below are the kind we move every month.

Who we are

The Brand Buddies is a TikTok Shop Partner agency run by Haseef Bashir and Sohaib Akbar. We are an official TikTok Shop Partner, and we have scaled 60+ brands on the platform.

We started here because TikTok Shop is where physical product brands win or lose right now, and most agencies treat it as a side channel. We do not. We run creators, content, and ads as one connected operation, and we treat your shop like it is our own. When the numbers move, we move with them.

We focus on products that demo well on video, because that is where the system pays off fastest. If your product shows its value in a few seconds of footage, it can scale on TikTok Shop, and that is the kind of brand we are built to grow.

What we believe

The handful of rules that shape how we work.

01

Operate, do not advise

We run the work ourselves: creators, content, and ads. You get outcomes, not a list of recommendations.

02

Proof over promises

We point to real dashboards and real numbers. We would rather show you a result than sell you a story.

03

Own the number

Someone owns your GMV. We treat your shop like our own and we answer for what it does.

04

Cut what does not work

We review every week and kill the losers fast, so budget and effort always follow what is winning.

Partner and niches

We are an official TikTok Shop Partner, which means we work inside the platform every day and stay close to how it actually scales brands.

We focus on physical product brands that demo well on video: beauty, wellness, supplements, food, and home. If that sounds like you, we are likely a fit.
