Reducing costs per sign-up by using Spark Ads and TikTok Creator Marketplace
BetterHelp is an online portal that provides direct-to-consumer access to mental health services such as online counseling and therapy services. They offer affordable, private, and professional counseling through text, chat, phone and video options. The BetterHelp team was looking to lower their cost per sign-up and increase user sign-ups on their website. BetterHelp previously ran campaigns that were not delivering strong performance on their cost per sign-up. They were measuring performance at a higher level and saw an opportunity to improve their cost per sign-up through TikTok's branded solutions.
BetterHelp used TikTok's best practices and leaned on creators from TikTok’s Creator Marketplace to develop authentic creatives for their campaign. They launched Spark Ads, a native ad format that enabled them to leverage organic creator posts, and ran a Consideration Traffic Campaign to reach 18+ year old users on TikTok.
BetterHelp reduced their cost per sign-up by 75% by activating user-generated content as Spark Ads. The BetterHelp team understands that "Don't make ads, make TikToks" brings them better performance and results. They are consistently looking for new opportunities with creators to create Spark Ads on TikTok.
