Starter tips for Promote

• We recommend Promoting a video that already has strong organic performance.

• Try upper funnel objectives like "More video views" to first build brand awareness and "More followers" to gain a following base of potential customers for your account. At this stage, we recommend using a broad audience to target to cast a wide net. After figuring out your target audience, feel free to adjust the settings to narrow down to a specific audience.

• Test various types of content with different objectives to discover what gives you the best results.

• Use lower funnel objectives like "more messages" for generating leads or for TikTok Shop Sellers use "More product purchases" to increase sales.
