The Covid-19 pandemic has demanded society to adapt to online activities, including economic ones. Electronic commerce (e-commerce) has become a crucial aspect in sustaining economic activities, allowing them to continue even in an online setting.. The utilization of e-commerce has become so popular that it prompted TikTok to introduce features such as TikTok Shop and TikTok Live. These features are used for real-time online buying and selling activities, commonly known as live shopping. The account @louissescarlettfamily engages in live shopping and has successfully set a record for the highest product sales in Southeast Asia. This research aims to understand the persuasive communication strategies and techniques employed by the @louissescarlettfamily account during TikTok live shopping. The study utilizes a qualitative approach and a case study method, drawing on DeFleur and Ball-Rokeach's theory of persuasive communication strategies and Howell's theory of persuasive communication techniques. The findings indicate that the @louissescarlettfamily account employs psychodynamic and meaning construction strategies. The account uses five techniques during TikTok live shopping: transfer, putting it up to you, bandwagon, say it with flowers, and reassurance. Additionally, the research reveals the application of coercive communication by emphasizing time constraints to create urgency and expedite purchase decisions.
