It’s CORN!

If you don’t know what Corn TikTok is, then you’ve clearly been living under a rock for the past few weeks!

To summarise, Recess Therapy did a little interview with Tariq (aka Corn Kid, AKA CEO of corn) and it’s about the cutest bloody thing I’ve seen in a while; 

In true internet fashion, TikToker @schmoyoho decided to create one hell of a catchy tune;

intro song for any meal/snack with corn 🌽 – from iconic interview on @doingthings

♬ It’s Corn – Tariq & The Gregory Brothers & Recess Therapy

You might be thinking, “this style of meme song is so familiar…” Let me stop you right there, it totally is because @schmoyoho was part of Auto-Tune the News which gave us the absolute BANGER “Bed Intruder” song. 

Now, what I really wanted to talk about was how brands on social have jumped on this trend. Here are a couple that I thought were pretty fun.

First up, we have Clarks;

When the social team asks for corn content, you dont ask questions 🌽 #itscorn #Clarks

♬ It’s Corn – Tariq & The Gregory Brothers & Recess Therapy

This one for me takes the number one spot and made Clarks feel relatable and on trend!

This one is a no brainer from Nandos; 

@nandosuk

We really like corn 🌽 #corn #corntok #itscorn #cornsong

Needless to say there are endless posts with this trending sound, as well as some absolutely fantastic remixes.

If you enjoy a bit of TikTok, why not get in touch and see what we can do for you!

How can CMOs stop Q4 paid social costs from spiralling? CMOs cannot change Q4 seasonality, but they can change how exposed they are to it. Instead of leaving all budget in live auctions when CPMs peak, use Meta’s Reservation buying to pre book key Q4 reach at fixed prices, then keep a smaller auction budget for agile tests and trading. Lock creative and plans earlier in the year, use Q2 and Q3 to find winning hooks and formats, and use AI to build CPM and ROAS scenarios. You turn Q4 from a chaotic bidding war into a planned portfolio with clear risk and upside.
