Why Hasbro Seeking A “Chief TikTok Officer” Is Brilliant

Hasbro is seeking a “Chief TikTok Officer” for its Nerf brand who will craft strategy for the platform and receive a hefty $10,000 per month salary. The only thing that I find unbelievable about this story is that someone else didn’t try this stunt first.
It’s perfect for Nerf’s audience demographic, it’s a content-rich brand with lots of possibilities and creating this sort of dream job that millions of kids will be lusting after has already created an earned media bonanza for Hasbro and Nerf. So good on them and their team for recruiting someone to help with TikTok ... even though they clearly don’t need the marketing strategy help.
