MASTERING TIKTOK CUSTOMER ACQUISITION

October 5, 2023

TikTok is more than a social media platform. When users open the TikTok app,
they aren't doing so to chat with friends. They go to TikTok for entertainment.

The nature of the platform's For You Page gives brands a unique opportunity. You
don't need loads of followers for your content to be discovered. As long as your
videos are entertaining and relevant, they find their target audience.

This is part of what makes TikTok marketing a powerful customer acquisition
channel that helps brands spread awareness, build supportive communities, and
drive conversions. 

While the company has faced its fair share of controversy, it’s one of the
most-used social media apps in the world. As of April 2023, 44% of the US
digital population uses TikTok. That means utilizing TikTok as an acquisition
channel gives your brand access to over 116 million people.

That growth is backed by the user base’s strong purchasing power. TikTok’s
in-app purchases amounted to nearly 500 million USD in the first quarter of 2023
alone.

After reading this blog, you’ll have all the information you need to harness
that purchasing power with a winning TikTok customer acquisition strategy.




ORGANIC TIKTOK CUSTOMER ACQUISITION

Open TikTok today, and you won’t be seeing many 15-second dance videos. The
app’s culture has evolved significantly since its pandemic-era rise to fame.
It’s still an entertainment platform, but user behavior classifies TikTok as a
search engine, too. 

According to Senior Vice President Prabhakar Raghavan (in charge of Google’s
Knowledge and Information organization), “Almost 40% of young people, when
they’re looking for a place for lunch, they don’t go to Google Maps or Search…
they go to TikTok or Instagram.”

Their purchase intent and the platform’s searchability factor create a strong
foundation for organic customer acquisition. 

Here’s how you can implement organic TikTok marketing content into every stage
of your customer acquisition funnel:


BUILDING AWARENESS AMONG TIKTOK'S USERS

When it comes to building brand awareness without an established following,
consider TikTok an asset. TikTok's users spend the majority of their time on the
For You Page. It’s a constant stream of content cherry-picked by the algorithm.
While some of the content is from creators they follow, most of it is stuff
they’ve never interacted with. 

Brands can take the already insurmountable amount of reach even further by
working with influencers. A steady stream of organic content is key to building
a community of potential customers.


FOSTERING CONSIDERATION WITH USER-GENERATED CONTENT

Value-focused content is ideal for users in the consideration stage. They’re
aware of your brand— now it’s time to show what your products can do for them.

The credibility associated with user-generated content is also beneficial for
nurturing familiarity into consideration. Find UGC by checking branded hashtags,
account mentions/tags, and by using a social listening tool. You can also
commission influencers from the TikTok creator marketplace to make native TikTok
videos about your products– just remember to maintain transparency for all
sponsored content. 


INSPIRE DECISIONS WITH CLEAR CTAS

Inspire users to make a purchasing decision by implementing clear, specific
calls to action at the end of your TikTok videos. Your CTAs should be tailored
to your TikTok audience. Tell your viewers exactly what steps they need to take
to make a purchase. The steps will vary depending on what conversion pathway you
set up. Try to make the process easy and fast. 

Strengthen your CTAs further by providing TikTok-exclusive offers like discount
codes, freebies, or even a dedicated landing page designed just for your TikTok
audience. 


MAINTAIN LOYALTY WITH COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT

Don’t forget about your customers once they reach the purchasing phase. Promote
long-term customer loyalty through community building and customer service.
Continue creating engaging content, manage customer queries from your comments
and DMs, and grow customer lifetime value by releasing limited edition versions
and special offers on a semi-regular basis. 


PAID TIKTOK CUSTOMER ACQUISITION

While TikTok ads may not be as well-established as other industry players, they
still play an instrumental role in TikTok customer acquisition.


BEST PRACTICES FOR TIKTOK CREATIVE

If you want a successful customer acquisition strategy on TikTok, you need
high-quality, entertaining videos. The following tips can help you improve your
video content:

USE THE RIGHT VIDEO SPECS

Optimal TikTok video specs:

 * Aspect ratio: 9:16
 * Minimum resolution: 540x960px, 640x640px, or 960x540px.
 * File type: .mp4, .mov, .mpeg, .3gp, or .avi
 * Max file size: 500MB
 * Optimal video length: 15-60 seconds for organic videos and 9-15 seconds for
   paid ads.

KNOW YOUR TIKTOK SAFE ZONES

Safe zones are the areas where your content is displayed on screen, unobstructed
by any buttons or sidebars. Be mindful of the safe zones to ensure all valuable
content is clearly visible.

BE STRATEGIC WITH YOUR TIKTOK VIDEO STRUCTURE

Here’s a common product-focused TikTok video structure:

 * Hook: Give your viewers a reason to stick around by showing them what they
   can expect if they watch your video to completion. One way to do this is by
   teasing your solution.
 * Problem: Empathize with a problem they face.
 * Your solution: Show viewers an easy solution in action. 
 * CTA: Tell your viewers what to do next.

This structure can go full-on infomercial, leaning into the cheesy vibe for
comedy, or it can follow a subtler approach. Some brands like to break the
fourth wall in an effort to prove authenticity. 

BE GENUINE, EVEN WITH ADS

Life hacks are all over TikTok for a reason– they appear genuine and actually
useful. This is the connotation you want to replicate with your content. You
understand the viewer’s unique problem and have a solution to make their lives
easier. 

Whether you’re making an organic video or an ad, follow the native TikTok format
and design your content to fit the app’s unique culture. Basically, create your
TikTok ads as you would any product-focused TikTok video. 

USE ENGAGING FEATURES

Use all the features TikTok has to offer. Trending sounds, voiceover, closed
captions, on-screen text, jump cuts, effects, colors, filters, and the like are
all scroll stoppers that keep your audience engaged.

REMEMBER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Be mindful of any intellectual property used in your ads. IP boundaries are
muddy on TikTok, but disputes currently in the works should be taken as a
warning sign to brands using other users’ original audio for advertising
purposes. 

Further reading: Check out our blog post “How to Nail Your TikTok Ad Creative”.


WHAT PRODUCTS ARE TIKTOK ADS BEST FOR? TIKTOK ADVERTISING PRODUCT ALIGNMENT

TikTok ads are ideal for products that meet a need or solve a specific problem.
Communities on TikTok are more niche than on other platforms. Organic hashtag
research can lead to subcultures that align with your target audience.

The question is less "Are my target customers using TikTok" and more "What
content do I need to put out to find them?" 

Your TikTok ads should visually represent your product's value proposition. This
is one place where partnering with creators can change the game, as they are
typically skilled at producing native videos that entertain while showing off
your product's value.

‍


HOW TO STRUCTURE TIKTOK AD CAMPAIGNS FOR CUSTOMER ACQUISITION

TikTok ads follow the campaign<ad group<ad structure. Brands can differentiate
campaigns by objective, product, destination (app, website, or brick-and-mortar
store), budget, offer, etc. Ad groups are a way to organize creatives. 

To get the most out of your ad spend, consider only displaying your ad in the
TikTok feed. Include at least 3-5 unique, active ad groups per campaign and 2-3
unique creatives per ad group. When posting your creatives, uncheck the video
download feature to keep your video from being saved and reuploaded by another
account.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO TEST AND VALIDATE TIKTOK ADS?

The TikTok testing period can last 1-2 months. It takes time to gather enough
conversion data to identify performance patterns. Factors that impact the
testing period length include:

 * The conversion event
 * Sales cycle length
 * Audience behavior

If your optimization goal is conversions, TikTok recommends not making any
changes to the targeting, bid, or budget before it passes the learning phase.
This type of ad group typically exits the learning phase after 50 conversions.
Post learning phase, keep your budget within 20-50% of the previous budget. 


HOW MUCH DOES TIKTOK CUSTOMER ACQUISITION COST?

Here is the average cost of TikTok customer acquisition (TikTok CAC) according
to Business of Apps:

 * Average TikTok engagement rate: 5-16%
 * Average TikTok Ads CPM: $10
 * Average TikTok Ads CPC: $1
 * Minimal spend per campaign: $500

TIKTOK ADVERTISING BUDGET BEST PRACTICES

Make the most of your TikTok advertising budget by adhering to the following
recommendations:

 * Use automatic bidding, as manual bidding is too susceptible to spend
   volatility. Opt for manual bidding only when you have a specific window of
   time during which your ads should run.
 * Leave your campaign budget open.
 * Daily budgets for campaigns must be greater than  50 USD
 * Daily budgets for ad groups must exceed 20 USD. 
 * If you select Daily Budget for the campaign, you have to select daily budget
   in the ad group. If you select lifetime budget for a campaign, you can choose
   either lifetime budget or daily budget at the ad group level. 
 * When choosing a Bid Cap or Cost Cap bidding strategy, set your budget to be
   at least 20 times the CPA. 
 * Use app Event Optimization to run app installs. Keep your AEO budget over
   $100, covering at least 20 times the targeted deep conversion CPA.
 * When running conversion campaigns, select conversion as the optimization goal
   and Lowest Cost as the bid strategy. The initial budget should be 20 times
   the target CPA minimum. 

DELIVERY TYPES: STANDARD VS ACCELERATED 

Standard delivery spends the budget as evenly as possible throughout the ad
period. This method prevents leftover balance and optimizes the return. 

Accelerated delivery spends the budget in whatever way produces as many results
as possible in the shortest period possible. This can result in a higher or
lower fluctuating cost for a single result, but the average cost will still
align with your bid. Accelerated delivery aims to get the highest exposure as
quickly as possible. 


MEASURING TIKTOK CAC (CUSTOMER ACQUISITION COST) ROI

While dividing the total ad campaign cost by the number of new customers
acquired is the most effective way to measure ROI for a conversion campaign,
brands can also measure the impact of their ads by calculating the difference
between the view time per impression and the view time per viewer. The bigger
the difference between these, the more people are rewatching the ad.
