Today is the most exciting day of my life
I get to finally announce to everyone that TBAR Partners has been acquired by Common Thread Collective
Alex Rudolph and I started TBAR partners thinking it would just be a side hustle to make some extra money while in college playing baseball but oh has it been so much more than that.
Very quickly we realized we had something when I made a LinkedIn post the day of starting the agency about how we would scale David protein on TikTok shop and it instantly blew up and booked our calendars out for weeks.
We landed our 1st clients and got great case studies with those brands and from there we never looked back.
We could have never imagined this happening when we started 15 months ago but we have grown and learned so much in this time.
I’m so grateful for what has been entrusted to us from our 25 person team to our 40+ clients we get to serve daily, and I’m just in awe of what TBAR has become as it’s much bigger than just Alex and I.
That is why this partnership with Common Thread Collective was so clear for us because it not only allowed our entire team to be apart of something so much than what Alex and I could do alone but it also allows Alex and I to focus on TikTok shop which is what we love doing and are best at!
We have made a name for ourselves as one of the Top TikTok shop agencies in the space and it’s only going to be more clear to everyone TBAR is the best at TikTok shop as we now have
- Better resourcing to hire the best talent and operationalize
- TikTok shop live management services
- Proprietary software for halo effect and TikTok content to Meta ad campaigns in a single click
I’m fired up for this next chapter of TBAR Partners and excited to build with CTC who’s known to be one of the biggest most respected agencies in the entire space and get to learn from some of the best leaders like Taylor Holiday, Luke Austin and the rest of their team.
I can’t express enough my gratitude for this opportunity and still in awe of what this has become because TBAR was not built by my own hands but by Gods hand over everything since the beginning
