Ep 45: A concrete approach to TikTok with Andrew Athias

Ep 45: A concrete approach to TikTok with Andrew Athias

Author: Ayo Abbas, Marketing Consultant March 3, 2023 Duration: 32:18

Today’s interview is where we go stateside as I interview Andrew Athias, who is the Digital Director for Silvi Materials in Philadelphia.  Silvi Materials is a great example of a traditional construction firm trying something different, TikTok, to market itself and it paying off. 

This interview was recorded the morning after Philadelphia’s loss in the Superbowl. 

In this episode: 

  • How his boss reached out to him to join their firm even though they had no social media presence 
  • What makes a good video and content
  • And how employees and contractors are now approaching him to be featured on TikTok
  • How to measure success on TikTok
