Ep 626: The 4-Part Formula for Scaling TikTok Shop Ads the Right Way 9:17

7 weeks önce9:17

Send us a text Scaling TikTok Shop ads isn’t about increasing ad spend and hoping for results. It’s about strategy, execution, and timing. In this episode, I walk through the four phases of scaling TikTok Shop ads using a proven structure. This approach ensures that every ad dollar is working for you, not against you. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand: How to launch Product Shopping Ads (PSAs) to get immediate traction The role of Video Shopping Ads (VSAs) in driving visibility and conversions When and how to use Cost Caps and Target ROAS to push volume while staying profitable The power of GMV Max Campaigns , TikTok’s answer to Advantage+ and PMax If you're serious about growing on TikTok Shop, this is the framework to follow. Key Takeaways: Scaling TikTok Shop ads isn’t about spending more—it’s about structure. If your campaigns aren’t set up correctly, you’re just burning cash. Start with Product Shopping Ads (PSAs) to capture demand. These work like Google Shopping ads inside TikTok Shop and are the best way to gain traction early. Layer in Video Shopping Ads (VSAs) to increase visibility. Creator-driven video ads help buyers see your product everywhere, building demand. Use Max Delivery first, then test Cost Cap and Target ROAS. Focus on pushing volume before optimizing for profitability. GMV Max campaigns are for serious scaling. Once you have strong traction, this is TikTok’s version of Meta’s Advantage+ or Google’s PMax, designed for brands ready to scale big.

Send us a text TikTok Shop is exploding with opportunities—but most brands are doing it all wrong. In this episode, I break down the four key ways to sell on TikTok Shop and how to maximize each one for growth. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to scale, these strategies will help you increase conversions, attract top affiliates, and dominate TikTok Shop. Key Takeaways: Organic content drives long-term sales – Brands should post multiple times a day with shoppable videos linked directly to their TikTok Shop. Optimize your Shop Tab – Treat your TikTok storefront like an Amazon listing. Use high-quality images, SEO-friendly descriptions, and strong CTAs. The best affiliates aren’t influencers – Most TikTok Shop affiliates work with multiple brands. Identify high-performing creators and recruit them with strong commissions. Live streaming is massively underrated – The longer you stream, the more sales you generate. The gold is in the hour —stay on live longer than you think. Combine all four strategies for maximum growth – Don’t rely on just one method. The brands winning on TikTok Shop leverage organic, affiliates, shop tab SEO, and live selling together.

Send us a text Buckle up because today’s episode is packed with gold. I’ve got Rytis Lauris, CEO and co-founder of OmniSend, on the pod, and let me tell you—this guy has been in the e-commerce automation game for over a decade. With more than 120,000 customers worldwide, OmniSend is changing how brands do retention marketing, and today, we’re breaking it all down. We’re talking about what’s working right now in e-commerce, what’s straight-up not working, and the biggest shifts happening in automation and customer retention. Rytis shares some seriously insightful takes on how Apple’s privacy changes are shaking things up, why email marketing isn’t dead (despite what people say), and what brands need to focus on to stay ahead. Oh, and we’re also tackling that big debate—should you ever remove subscribers from your email list? Let’s go. Key Topics: How e-commerce marketing has evolved over the past decade Why OmniSend is the go-to alternative to those overpriced enterprise platforms Is email marketing actually dead? (Spoiler: Nope.) How Apple’s privacy updates are changing the game for online brands The real way to keep your email list clean and engaged Why AI isn’t replacing humans in marketing anytime soon Building a customer-funded business and keeping your brand agile Who is Rytis Lauris? Rytis Lauris is the co-founder and CEO of OmniSend, a marketing automation platform designed specifically for e-commerce brands. With a background in digital marketing, Rytis saw a gap in the market for an affordable yet powerful email and SMS automation tool that serves small to mid-sized businesses. Under his leadership, OmniSend has grown to serve over 120,000 customers worldwide, helping brands maximize retention and boost revenue through smart automation. A firm believer in customer-funded business models, Rytis has led OmniSend without external investment, focusing on delivering real value to customers. Connect with Rytis Lauris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rytisl/ Visit OmniSend: https://www.omnisend.com/ Key Takeaways: Retention is king. Brands relying solely on acquisition will struggle; the real money is in repeat customers. Sunsetting subscribers too soon is a mistake. Engagement isn’t just about open rates—clicks matter more. AI can automate, but humans differentiate. The best marketing still needs a human touch to stand out. Customer-funded businesses stay agile. OmniSend has scaled without outside investment, proving that putting customers first wins. Apple & Google privacy changes aren't the end. Brands just need to adapt by focusing on first-party data and owned channels.

Ep 618: TikTok Shop Profit Secrets-- Mastering Commission Structures for Growth with Jordan West 11:46

11 weeks önce11:46

11:46

Send us a text If you’re running a TikTok Shop or working with affiliates, understanding commission structures is critical for maximizing profits. Many brands make costly mistakes when setting commission rates, leading to lost revenue despite high sales. In this episode, Jordan West breaks down the two key commission models—Standard Affiliate Commission (20%) and Shop Ads Commission (5-10%)—and how they impact profitability. Plus, we’ll discuss how to scale your TikTok Shop while keeping ad spend under control. Listen and learn in this episode! Key Takeaways from the Episode Master TikTok Shop Commission Models: Standard Affiliate Commission (20%) rewards organic sales, while Shop Ads Commission (5-10%) ensures ads remain profitable. Setting the wrong rate can destroy margins. Profitability > Revenue: High sales don’t always mean high profits. Running ads without adjusting commissions can leave you with razor-thin margins or even losses. Crunch the Numbers: A $30 product with a 60% margin is profitable with a 20% organic commission but barely breaks even if ads are added without adjusting commissions. Scale with Smart Strategies: Lower your cost per order, test viral-style content, and increase AOV by bundling products and offering exclusive deals for TikTok Shop buyers. Educate and Align with Affiliates: Affiliates need to understand commission structures so they don’t feel cheated. Transparency is key to keeping everyone happy and profitable.
