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.

Want to know to succeed with TikTok ads?

In the last week, I've had 2 clients spending $20K+ a day on TikTok profitably.

Here's what I'm doing on both of those accounts:

#1 Stacking interest audiences in 1 ad set. I always test the interests that TikTok recommended. Easy. The interests do not have to be related to your product. They will seem totally random, but if TikTok recommends them, I test them. And they work.

I have not seen success with TikTok's automated targeting, completely broad targeting, lookalikes, or purchase intent audiences.

7 Tips To Improve Your Ad Creative Performance 🧵

#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.

Starting the ad with something a bit weird/oddly satisfying will get people to stop scrolling.

As a business owner, I get a ton of annoying emails from salespeople.

I was curious... how did my email get leaked? And how do I stop the flood of cold-sales emails every day?

I finally found the problem & solution ⤵️🧵 Recently, instead of deleting/marking spam every sales email I got, I decided to reply to a few.

I simply asked a few of them: where did you get my email?

I was surprised when I got the same answer from a few people.

They told me they got my email from apollo.io

What's working the best on TikTok ads right now?

Video Shopping Ads.

This new ad type allows you to add the product sticker directly from your catalog to your video ad.

So far, these ads are getting half of the CPMs & CPAS of my "normal" video ads.

Here's how to set it up⤵️ The first step is to make sure that your product catalog is synced to TikTok Ads Manager.

I like using the TikTok x Shopify app integration to automatically pull the product catalog.

The next step is setting up a new campaign for Video Shopping Ads.

I've been seeing a lot of marketing leaders say that the only way for DTC companies to survive is to diversify into retail.

While I don't fully agree with the sentiment, I've seen a big uptick in my client requests for ads that feature buying their product at a retail store. Although these companies are mainly DTC online, we are running a lot of paid social ads to advertise getting the product in store!

80% of my business is UGC content creation.

20% of my business is media buying services.

1 year ago, that % was flipped.

Media buying is nothing without a supply of great ad UGC ads!

Here's how I did it and why... I started offering UGC as a service when I realized that most influencer marketing agencies/platforms suck.

The problem with working with influencers is that they have no idea of what makes a good ad.

I have a unique vantage point because I have access to SO many ad accounts.

I never thought it was possible to be spending $500K+ a month on any other social channels than Facebook and Google (sorry Pin & Snap).

No media buying hacks are necessary.

All you need is a simplified account structure and most importantly...

#1 A really great product

#2 Really great ads
