Amid the swirling uncertainty around TikTok's future in the US, it's time to talk about what's next for social commerce and the creators, businesses, and agencies that power it.

Kevin O'Leary (@kevinolearytv) recently pegged the odds of a fourth extension at just 10%, noting that with pressing trade issues on the table, TikTok is no longer a top priority for the Trump administration. So, where does that leave the millions of small businesses relying on the platform? Or the tens of thousands of agencies built around TikTok's ecosystem—from tools and analytics to UGC and TikTok Shop?

The truth is, competing apps are scrambling to fill the void, but none have truly nailed the holistic approach TikTok pioneered. Even established giants like Facebook and Instagram have struggled to master creator affiliates and integrated brand shops—something Mark Zuckerberg himself called "the future" back in 2011, yet Meta couldn't fully capitalize on it.

Drawing from my extensive background in eCommerce tech, I've seen the limitations firsthand: rigid creator affiliate structures on TikTok, scalability issues for diverse businesses, and gaps in what the US economy truly needs. That's why I built TREND—a platform designed to elevate social commerce without the pitfalls.

Here's what sets TREND apart:

- **Universal TREND Shops**: Every user gets their own shop. Sell from your garage, closet, or inventory—we handle the W-9 at year's end. No barriers to entry.

- **Shop by Video Marketplace**: The first of its kind. Creators produce engaging videos for brands, and shoppers buy directly from them. Seamless, video-driven discovery.

- **Service-Based Businesses? Covered**: Creators can create content for plumbers, tutors, or consultants and earn commissions on generated leads. Browse local services via creator videos—find that reliable plumber with ease.

- **Restaurants and More**: Showcase your signature dish in a video, then link straight to Uber Eats or DoorDash. Now, users can browse and order food right in-app, blending discovery with delivery.

TREND isn't just an app; it's a resilient ecosystem ready to support creators, affiliates, and businesses if TikTok stumbles. We're building the future of social commerce—one that's inclusive, innovative, and American-made.

What do you think—will TikTok weather the storm, or is it time for fresh alternatives? Drop your thoughts below, and let's connect if you're in eCommerce, content creation, or agency world. Check out TREND and join the movement.

I have been attending @vidsummit for a few years now. Each year its different people with a few of the same. The big creators stay the same with one or two new creators that rise. Vidsummit if you don't know is a YouTube centric event.

I quickly realized that for so many, being a creator, and earning a living from it is hard. Not everyone is a @MrBeast, who has been doing it for more than 10 years, I might add. The point is Youtube is hard to make money on.

Along came TikTok and changed things for so many creators, with Brands connecting to smaller creators and both earning money. The TikTok algorithm giving smaller creators a chance to be seen and heard.

For Youtube many are realizing that only a handful of the same creators earn most of the ad revenue across the board, and the rest keep coming and going from VidSummit and being a creator. If you are paying attention, you see these people over and over and it's just a handful.

Now there is TREND App the new kid on the block. Our algorithm is more in line with TikToks. We have Brand to Creator Deals. Revshare like YouTube. A chance for smaller creators to been seen, heard, and earn, with even more ways than TikTok.

Now for the X new algorithm. I have to admit X has been a lot better for me since the Update Thanks @elonmusk for pushing the X app to continue to progress and give smaller accounts a chance as it should be.

Dec 6th The US Court of Appeals upheld the #tiktokban Being upheld wasn't on the grounds of keeping free speech but rather on national security. TikTok's lawyers argued free speech and lost. They seem to want to continue to argue free speech to the supreme court, that appears to be an uphill battle. From what we understand the ISPs of the US will be turning TikTok off Jan 19th.

@realDonaldTrump will be testing the executive branches power and the power of the three branches if he works to save TikTok.

Since that time our DMs have been full of what is going to happen next and asking if TREND is ready for the influx of creators and brands.

TREND is ready!

I traveled to Washington DC Dec 6th to be on the ground when the announcement came. I was on the US courthouse steps when it was announced.

From there I went to each of the Utah Congressional and Senate offices and spoke with their Communication Directors about our Platform TREND.

They were all very excited to support a UTAH based TikTok alternative. Utah is the home to Silicon Slopes with over 32 billion in Tech Investments in the state in 2023 alone. They are doing their due diligence to onboard accounts onto TREND and we hope they do so in the near future.

TRENDS plan is to onboard all the creators and brands that have enjoyed TikTok to have an even better experience with TREND.

Here's what you can do next to get involved with this movement:

1.) Download the App
