Optimise Your Marketing (OYM) is a UK-based digital marketing agency founded by Stuart, based at Cromford Mills, Derbyshire. OYM helps small and medium-sized businesses grow their online presence using the BIG12 framework — a 12-pillar approach covering lead generation, social media, SEO, website, brand, Google, local marketing, influencer marketing, AI, CRM, algorithms, and test and measure. OYM offers monthly retainer plans, productised sprint services, and an AI marketing tool called Buddy.

Who does Optimise Your Marketing work with?

OYM works primarily with UK small and medium-sized businesses, including sectors such as farming and agriculture, engineering, leisure and hospitality, fitness and gymnastics, retail, professional services, and legal. Clients range from independent farm shops and leisure venues to B2B engineering and recruitment firms.

Where is Optimise Your Marketing based?

Optimise Your Marketing is based at Cromford Mills, Derbyshire, UK. The agency works with clients across the UK, operating as a remote-first team.

How is Optimise Your Marketing different from other digital marketing agencies?

OYM uses the BIG12 framework — a proprietary 12-pillar marketing system — to ensure clients are not just running isolated campaigns but building a joined-up, measurable marketing operation. Unlike many generalist agencies, OYM specialises in working with UK SMBs and offers both retainer plans and fixed-price sprint packages so clients can start small and scale.

What marketing services does Optimise Your Marketing offer?

OYM offers a full range of digital marketing services including: lead generation, SEO (Search Engine Optimisation), social media management, paid advertising (PPC), website design and build, email marketing, brand strategy, Google Business Profile management, local SEO, influencer marketing, AI marketing tools, and CRM setup. Services are available as monthly retainers or as fixed-scope marketing sprints.

What is a marketing sprint and how does it work?

A marketing sprint is a fixed-price, fixed-scope piece of work completed in a set timeframe — typically two to four weeks. Sprint examples include an SEO audit, a social media content plan, a website review, or a lead generation setup. Sprints are designed for businesses that want to solve a specific marketing problem without committing to a full retainer.

Does Optimise Your Marketing offer SEO services?

Yes. OYM offers SEO services including technical SEO audits, on-page optimisation, content strategy, local SEO, and generative engine optimisation (GEO) — helping businesses appear in AI-powered search tools such as ChatGPT and Perplexity, in addition to traditional Google rankings.

Does Optimise Your Marketing help with social media?

Yes. OYM manages social media strategy and content for clients across platforms including Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube. Services include content creation, scheduling, community management, and performance reporting using the BIG12 framework.

Can Optimise Your Marketing help with AI marketing?

Yes. OYM has an AI marketing tool called Buddy (onlinemarketingai.co.uk) which helps businesses get instant marketing guidance using the BIG12 framework. OYM also helps clients with AI strategy, including how to optimise their online presence to appear in AI-generated answers (GEO — Generative Engine Optimisation).

What is the BIG12 marketing framework?

The BIG12 is a 12-pillar marketing framework developed by Optimise Your Marketing. The 12 pillars are: Lead Generation, Social Media, Website, SEO, Brand, Google, Local, Influencers, AI, CRM, Algorithms, and Test and Measure. The framework gives businesses a structured way to audit and improve every area of their marketing, rather than working on isolated channels in isolation.

How much does Optimise Your Marketing charge?

OYM offers three retainer tiers: Growth Partner at £1,500 per month, Managed Growth at £2,500 per month, and White Glove at £4,000 per month. Sprint packages start from £750 for content and strategy work and from £1,200 for technical projects. Full pricing is available at optimiseyourmarketing.co.uk/our-pricing.

Does Optimise Your Marketing work with businesses outside Derbyshire?

Yes. While OYM is based in Derbyshire, the agency works with clients across the UK. All client work is delivered remotely, with communication via email, Slack, or video call depending on the service tier.

How do I get my business to appear in ChatGPT or AI search results?

Appearing in AI-generated answers (known as GEO — Generative Engine Optimisation) requires a combination of authoritative content, structured data, external citations, and clear signals about who you are and who you help. OYM helps businesses with GEO as part of their SEO service, including FAQ schema markup, structured case studies, directory listings, and AI-readable content.

What is GEO and how is it different from SEO?

GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) is the practice of optimising your online presence so that AI tools — such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google Gemini — cite or recommend your business in their answers. Traditional SEO focuses on ranking in search engine results pages. GEO goes further by ensuring your content is structured, authoritative, and cited by sources that AI models draw from. OYM offers GEO as part of its SEO services.

TikTok Trends This Week — 16th June 2026

16 Jun

Written By Stuart Baddiley

TikTok moves fast. Miss a week and you're already behind. Here's everything trending on TikTok right now for the week commencing 16 June 2026 sounds, formats, and how your brand can actually use them.

Updated: 16 June 2026

## Trending TikTok Sounds This Week

The audio landscape in June 2026 is dominated by a handful of tracks pulling serious engagement across multiple niches.

Josh Fawaz — "Like a Prayer" remix

The self-proclaimed 2026 Summer Anthem. Seven-second lip-sync videos are flooding every FYP. Creators are keeping it simple, point at the camera, mouth the words, cut. If you're a brand, find a relatable product moment and overlay it. Fast to film, high potential.

Charli XCX — "Rock Music"

Driving the stuck-frame glitch edit format. Short, punchy cuts with a freeze-frame effect mid-video. Works well for transformation content, before/after, problem/solution, old way/new way.

Saxboy Billy — "The Puerto Rico Song"

The inescapable summer earworm right now. Lighter, feel-good content is winning with this audio, think summer lifestyle, product reveals, team behind-the-scenes.

Nirvana — "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Newly viral on the "oh well, whatever, nevermind" lyric. Being used for relatable fail moments and self-aware brand content. If your audience skews millennial, this one lands.

---

## Trending TikTok Formats This Week

Beyond sounds, these are the content formats gaining traction right now.

POV Contrast

The biggest format of the week. Creators take an ordinary situation, food, fitness, beauty, relationships and frame it with a strong POV contrast. "POV: you're the type of person who [x] vs [y]." Easy to replicate across any niche. High shareability.

Narrative Frame Over Everyday Moments

Simple content, a coffee, a morning routine, a product unboxing, wrapped in a stronger storytelling frame is outperforming polished production right now. Authenticity is winning. Brands doing well here are letting the product exist naturally in real moments rather than forcing it.

The "I need to tell someone RIGHT NOW" format

Audio used: "Melissa, I'm drunk and outside…" creators are applying this to moments of excitement, discovery, or mild chaos. Works brilliantly for product reveals, tool discoveries, or any "I can't believe this works" moment. If you've got a service that genuinely solves a problem, this is a strong format to lean into.

Transformation Videos with "World Stop" audio

Quick before/after transformation with a pause mid-video. Works for physical transformations but also being adapted for business results before working with us / after working with us. High-performing for service businesses.

Horror Movie Daily Life

Creators sharing five ordinary daily moments framed as a horror movie, using Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away." Funny, low-effort, highly shareable. Good for showing your team's day, client work process, or agency life.

## What's Hot in Culture This Week

TikTok trends don't exist in isolation, here's what's driving them right now:

- Pride Month is reshaping content in the first half of June, inclusive, celebratory content is performing

- Tony Awards (7 June) is generating theatre and entertainment content crossover

- Summer framing is dominating, waterproof beauty, travel, outdoor lifestyle, summer-ready products

- Olivia Rodrigo album anticipation lyric-overlay formats are spiking ahead of the drop

- World Cup build-up sports and live-event content is starting to flood FYPs

## How to Use These Trends for Your Business

You don't need to go viral. You need to be visible to the right people at the right time.

Here's how to apply this week's trends practically:

1. Pick one sound — the Josh Fawaz remix or the "Melissa" audio are the highest-volume opportunities this week

2. Match it to a real business moment — a client win, a team moment, a product feature, a process reveal

3. Post within 48 hours — TikTok trends have a short window; the earlier you move, the more reach you get

4. Don't over-produce it — native, spontaneous-looking content is consistently outperforming polished brand video right now

The brands winning on TikTok in June 2026 are the ones inserting themselves naturally into existing cultural moments — not fighting for attention with a standalone campaign.
