  • Building customer and email lists

  • Instant lead capture

  • Real-time Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system sync

  • Multiple form templates to choose from based on your specific lead generation needs.


About Product Shopping Ads

With Product Shopping Ads, you can create ads that use product images and information from your products' Product Details Page to appear on the TikTok feed, Shop Tab and Search. When someone sees your Product Shopping Ad, they can click your ad to view a Product Details Page and decide to buy your product.

About Split Testing

Split testing in TikTok Ads Manager allows you to test two different versions of your ads to determine which one performs best. You can use split tests to keep the other variables the same and split your audience into two equal groups, with each group seeing only one ad group in order to draw a statistical conclusion about your ad performance and optimize future campaigns. You can test the following variables:

  • Targeting

  • Placement

  • Bidding and Optimization

  • Budget Strategy

  • Creative Assets

  • Catalog

  • Creative

  • Custom (campaign level tests for a combination of variables)

  • Smart+
