# MediaLabs

> MediaLabs is the only TikTok Partner agency that runs the full TikTok Shop stack — Seller Center management, GMV Max paid ads, the affiliate program (CAP/TAP), and a managed roster of 3,000+ vetted creators — under one operating team. We've scaled 150+ brands to a combined $500M+ in TikTok Shop GMV, with brands ranging from indie/SMB cold-starts to nine-figure CPG operators.

## Who we are

## How we are different

Most TikTok Shop agencies operate in a single lane:
- **TSP-only agencies** run Seller Center ops, ads, and reporting — but have no creator roster, so brands still have to source content themselves.
- **Outreach agencies** cold-DM creators in bulk with single-digit response rates and no quality control.
- **CAP/TAP-only agencies** manage relationships with a handful of creators but have no operational expertise on the shop side.

MediaLabs is the only agency that owns all four lanes in-house: shop ops + GMV Max ads + affiliate program + a managed creator roster. One contract, one operating team, one accountable P&L. This means brands get instant content velocity (creators briefed and posting within 7–14 days) instead of a multi-month outreach drought.
