Case in 60 seconds
KNAAP Bikes wanted to reach Generation Z, an audience that does not respond to a brand simply flaunting its products, so the e-bike maker needed a way into TikTok that went beyond product display.
Gen Z treats an influencer's video as time spent with someone it likes, so a bike that appears inside that video as part of the creativity earns attention that a straight product showcase does not.
Native advertising carried the brief, with the right influencers blending KNAAP Bikes into their own TikTok videos so that each collaboration felt more like hanging out with them than watching an ad.
Influencers selected for KNAAP Bikes made TikTok videos in which the bikes appeared as a natural part of their own creative content, a series of collaborations that ran as native advertising aimed at Generation Z.
For You Agency reports 34m+ views, 3.1M+ engagement and 450K+ shares from the TikTok collaborations, and states that KNAAP Bikes won the TikTok race among e-bike brands.

Why For You Agency's strategy worked
- 1
A product placed inside an influencer's own creative format travels further on TikTok than a showcase, because the audience watches the video for the creator and the product arrives inside that attention.
- 2
Influencer selection decides the result before any video is made, because a natural blend only works when the product fits what that influencer already makes for their audience.
