• TikTok, Trade Wars, and Trust: What Trump’s New Deal Means for AI-Powered Marketing | Episode #342
    Jul 7 2025

    In this episode of The AI-Powered Marketing Show, host Keith Bell breaks down the real story behind Trump’s bold claim: that the U.S. and China “pretty much have a deal” on TikTok. But what does that really mean—for digital marketers, creators, and entrepreneurs relying on the platform’s AI-driven magic?

    You’ll hear the truth behind the headlines, including:

    • How AI powers TikTok’s viral discovery loop
    • Why the platform’s future hinges on trade negotiations
    • What marketers should expect if ByteDance sells or walks
    • How smart creators are already adapting their content strategies
    • Why owning your audience is no longer optional

    Keith explores three likely outcomes—from full U.S. acquisition to a complete ban—and explains how each scenario could change your traffic, content, and funnel overnight.

    Quoting real sources like Reuters, Business Insider, and The Wall Street Journal, Keith brings a balanced, critical perspective. He unpacks not just what’s happening, but how to prepare—with your strategy, tech stack, and messaging in sync.

    “Marketers say there’s no substitute for TikTok,” says WSJ. But Keith asks—shouldn’t there be?
