Linqia Scores Big with Win at the 2026 Digiday Content Marketing Awards

San Francisco, CA, June 2026. Linqia, the leading independent influencer marketing agency in the US, has officially been announced as a winner in the 2026 Digiday Content Marketing Awards within the Best Use of TikTok category. The victory highlights Linqia’s ability to execute championship level, creator-led campaigns that drive impactful consumer engagement and cultural relevance across social media’s biggest platforms.

The Digiday Content Marketing Awards recognize campaigns creating interactive experiences and leaning on immersive storytelling to foster loyal audiences and build deeper connections. 

Linqia secured this recognition in collaboration with Noodles & Company for the “Hack TikTok Hack Culture” campaign. This campaign executed the ultimate play to drive excitement around Noodles & Company’s Chili Garlic Ramen. Linqia tapped into Gen Z “flavor chaser” creators on TikTok to position the dish as the definitive, must-try ramen hack.

“The best TikTok campaigns are born out of TikTok-first insights,” says Finola Austin, VP, Creative & Client Strategy at Linqia. “When conducting research ahead of Noodles & Company’s Chili Garlic Ramen launch, our Creative Strategy team noticed the virality of at-home ramen hacks on TikTok. Rather than viewing this as a problem, we leaned in, partnering with TikTok creators, as well as creators on Instagram, to position ordering the new dish, as delivery or in the restaurant, as the ULTIMATE ramen hack.”
