As a paid social consultant, the most valuable thing I can do is to help brands with their creative strategy and execution on TikTok.
The great thing is that ads that work on TikTok also work great on Facebook (but not the other way around).
While having a good ad account structure on TikTok is important, really the most important thing is to have a heavy stream of new creatives to test each week.
Creatives on TikTok fatigue fast! Way faster than FB.
So each week, I work with my UGC girls to get new ad content.
Testing different video hooks is incredibly important on TikTok.
Just slightly changing the opening scene can have a huge impact on performance.
Here's an example of an ad we did this week. V1 is testing the opener of ripping the laundry detergent sheet...
Where as V2 is testing taking the laundry out of the washer.
Just a simple change of the first 3 seconds can massively impact the ad's performance.
Luckily I have an amazing network of UGC talent and ad editors so I can get my clients new ad versions on a weekly basis.
So if you are on the fence about testing TikTok ads...
Of course, do it!
I am releasing a TikTok course VERY soon that will dive deeper into TikTok attribution, creative tutorials, etc so keep an eye out :).
Or if you want to work with me on TikTok ads, I'd love to chat!

What do the top advertisers on Meta and TikTok like The Farmers Dog, Poshmark, and Hims have in comment? They all have amazing ad creatives, and they hire me to make them.
Here are 15 top ad formats for you to use as inspiration:
#1 Let me change your mind about _________
#2 It's time to ditch ______, and get something much better from _____
#3 Fake Podcast (I am LITERALLY obsessed with this ad format)
I randomly started a product review blog that now gets over 10 million impressions and 2 million post engagements a month on Facebook.
Here's the story of my most successful side project:
I got started with my review blog "Savvy Finds" last year when I saw a trend that ads going through publisher FB pages performed better than ads going through brand pages.
I ran lots of A/B tests on the ads I was making for clients from the Savvy Finds page vs their brand page.
I saw that the ads running through the Savvy Finds page were nearly always the winner, with all variables remaining the same. So for every ad I make for clients, I let them test the ads through Savvy Finds.
#1 Start your ad with the desired end result of using your product, then in the second frame introduce the product. This will increase video watch time as people will want to know how to get the result.
(all examples are my own)
#2 Start your ad with a very close-up shot of the product. Get people wondering... what is that?
Starting the ad with something a bit weird/oddly satisfying will get people to stop scrolling.
#3 Start the ad explaining why you are NEVER doing the inconvenient/expensive/inefficient alternative to your product again.
