What’s working best for businesses on TikTok currently?
From what we have been seeing across multiple clients and
agency ad account tests, a few things are
actually working on TikTok right now, especially for E-Commerce and Brand dealings....
1) Creative-First Testing
Short, dynamic clips (<8–12s) that hook in the first 1–2 seconds are outperforming longer ads.
Ad account agency that run small batches of 10–15 variations, scales WINNING VIDEOS faster.
2) Interest + Broad Targeting Mix
Instead of locking down tight interests, combine broad targeting with layered interests in a
single campaign. Works really well when the creative is strong.
3) Real User Content
UGC-style content (even filmed with phones) almost always beats polished studio ads, especially when tied to a strong CTA.
Ad account agency usually will be able to see 15–30% better CVR with raw, real footage.
To help create content that has a higher chance of it being trending, instead of copying viral videos blindly, copy the video format instead. The niche of the video can be different, but the format helps a lot better as every person have their own niche that their particularly interested in.
- Same hook, same style
- Same camera angle
- Same pacing (jump cuts every 1 - 2 seconds)
- Same story arc, different ending.
Hope this helps
