Hi guys, on this tutorial, I want to show you how you can run TikTok Arts
0:06
All right, so let's get right into it. So you could just Google TikTok Arts Manager or check the description on this video
0:13
And I'll leave a link to this page. Make sure you're on this page
0:17
It says TikTok Arts Manager. So once you're on this page, you click get started
0:24
And once you do that, you'll be taken here. You can either sign up with a phone or an email address
0:29
So on that first page, you only just need to put your email address and password or your phone number
0:37
But what happened is I'm using my Google Chrome browser and I'm already logged into my email address
0:44
So TikTok immediately automatically, the take that I was already logged into an email address
0:50
And so they skipped that part. They just redirected me here. I have it in mind that the first step would be to enter your email address or password or on the alternative
1:00
there's an option to sign up with your phone number. So, okay, in either case, once you've done that and you're on this page
1:08
what you need to do here is to fill in your country
1:12
your legal business name, that's the legal business name of your company
1:17
and then the phone number and your industry and your time zone and your currency
1:22
Now, I just really want to say something at this point. When it comes to TikTok, there is your location
1:29
restriction, meaning that where you're advertising from would determine your targeting which, so therefore, if you're in the United States and then your account is selected over
1:42
here as the United States, you'd be able to target North America, that you, US, Canada
1:49
and some of the states and some other countries, but you might not be able to run advertisement
1:54
that targets the EU. Likewise, if you're in the EU, or you're, you
2:00
would be able to target the EU, but you might not be able to target the United States
2:04
So that's something to keep in mind. So once you feel the required information, country, industry, time zone, currency, phone number, and business name
2:13
You just go over here and accept the TikTok terms and condition
2:17
Then you click register. Once you've clicked register, you will be sent a verification code, and then you need to enter that verification code
2:30
So next, you'll be on this page. And on this page, you have two options
2:34
You could use the simplified mood to create your arts, where TikTok just shows you step by step, what you need to do
2:40
Or you could use the custom mode to get the full control experience
2:45
That's perfect for all advertising objectives, such as app installs and conversions
2:50
So you have two moods you could use to create the arts
2:54
but let's go for the simplified. So once we click on the simplified mood
2:59
would be on this page. And over here, TikTok gives you options
3:03
If you want to create your art, traffic, if you want your ads to send more people to your website
3:10
or if you just want to get more page follows or profile visits
3:14
or if you want lead generation or website conversions. So whichever one that you want
3:21
there are different options that TikTok gives you. All right. So once you do this, right
3:27
you just select one of your options. options, but I just quickly want to say something here. There's an issue with TikTok ad spending that happens if you run your first ad and you choose this conversion option
3:39
And the reason for this is when you just have a new TikTok account, TikTok ad manager
3:45
people have probably not purchased from your website through an ads you run on TikTok
3:51
So therefore, TikTok doesn't have data. They don't have information as to the type of people who are most likely to make purchase
3:59
on your website. That data is not readily available with TikTok because you haven't had people
4:03
purchased product on your website from TikTok. That's if you have a new TikTok account
4:09
So if you just go ahead and just put this one, drive value actions on your website, you might
4:15
have an issue with budget spending, meaning that TikTok may not be spending your budget, right
4:24
just because they don't have the data. So to avoid that issue, you could try it, but to just be on the
4:29
side and avoid that issue, I'd highly say, suggest, recommend that you start with either of
4:34
these three objective traffic, community interaction, only generation first. All right. So let's go for traffic, for example, and then we just click on continue
4:46
And when we click on continue, it would be on the next page. So on this page, we could either, we choose where we want to run the ads
4:54
So over here, the location is this. So like I said, it depends on where your art is
5:03
You could select multiple locations. For example, I could try to add Canada and all of that
5:12
Both there might be restrictions. You might not be able to figure some countries depending on where your art is located
5:23
So over here you could see fairly broad that your audience size is saying that it's fairly broad
5:30
So if you're targeting people in Canada and United States, the reach, like number of people in the United States and Canada that's on TikTok
5:39
So that's the potential reach is fairly broad. So you can see here
5:45
Due to data security requirements this figure does not include audiences other 18 years Any delivery is permitted by applicable laws will not be affected So all right So it just saying that targeting two countries like this
5:58
meaning that the rich of your arts, the audience reach is broad
6:02
but this estimation does not include people less than anything due to regulation
6:08
So just something I want to stick here. I think it's from our test with TikTok art
6:14
We suggest having broad audience. Targeting Broad actually because it gives TikTok a lot of room to work with
6:22
But if you have like very low budget, I would say don't target too broad
6:28
For example, if you have very low budget and then you know a particular state in the United States that has more of your audience
6:34
If your product is a niche product, if your product is a niche product and maybe a pretty efficient hook, for example, and you have very low budget
6:47
I would say instead of targeting super broad, you could just tag up a particular state in the United States or wherever
6:53
where you know that that product is in demand of something. But if you have the budget for it, I would always say go broad
7:03
because when you go broad, you give TikTok a good room to work with
7:07
All right. So over here, you can see custom audience or automatic audience
7:13
So custom audience, if you choose this option, you get to choose your audience demographic
7:17
that is the age of your audience and the language. And you could also limit based on your audience
7:24
interest and behavior. You're basically just telling TikTok that I want this art to be showed to people
7:32
of this certain demographic, which you select, and people that fall within this interest
7:37
You could choose this or you could go for automatic audience. I do recommend going for automatic audience because I feel TikTok has a lot of
7:47
Even from our test, though, automatic audience has worked better because Ticket has a lot of data point, right
7:55
They run a lot of, they see a lot of arts on their platform. They get a lot of data so they know their traumatic system is very good at dictating who would be most likely interested in your offer, your content, your ad
8:10
Do you understand? But if you feel like you want to decide who they show the ads do, you could do that
8:16
but I'd say go for automatic audience. So once you've done this, you're going to choose placement method
8:23
And if you just check here, you'll see there are two placement method, TikTok and Pang
8:28
There is something important to be said. I'd recommend you just go for only showing your ads within the TikTok platform
8:35
So selecting just TikTok means that your art to be shown only within TikTok
8:40
Now, if you go ahead and select Pango, let me just tell you what Pangul means right
8:45
and why currently I do not recommend selecting Pangle. It's just because Pangle is an ad network owned by TikTok or managed by TikTok, something like that
8:56
But basically is a network where, for example, if an app developer and I have a website, an app, right
9:04
and I want to show ads, I want to monetize my website. I could go to Pangle, register on Pangle, and have TikTok show their ads on my app
9:13
and then earn from views, you know, and then end money from TikTok
9:18
because I'm showing my TikTok arts on my website, my app. But the thing is not every app developer is, you know
9:27
cool. What I mean by cool is this. Some app developers, they just want to make money
9:33
a lot of money. So they don't care about service. They just want to make money
9:38
So in that case, some people use boats. So what they do is that they have boats
9:42
on a lot of boats in their apps so that they could generate revenue
9:48
So if you're unfortunate and then you choose Pangol, and unfortunately for you, your art is being shown in one of those apps
9:56
that uses boat technology. It means that a lot of boats is going to be visiting your TikTok ads
10:03
That means you're running TikTok ads, but the visit you're getting on your website from TikTok is going to be both traffic
10:11
and both traffic and boat traffic. So to just avoid this, it's not always the case with Pangu
10:17
but this is something that happens, right? I've seen a lot of complaints about it
10:22
It actually happens that you could be having a lot of boat traffic if you select Pangol
10:28
At least that's the situation for now. Maybe that would improve later in the future
10:32
I don't know. So for now, do not select Pangu, just leave it at TikTok, and then you click continue
10:38
Now, when you click continue, you'll be on this page. On this page, you're able to, choose if you want a daily budget or if you want a lifetime budget. So daily budget means that
10:51
you just want TikTok to spend a certain amount of money for one day, right? Or per day. So you can see
11:04
here that TikTok says at least five. So that suggests that we should have a minimum daily budget of at least
11:11
five dollars, right? So if you go and choose lifetime budget, so what lifetime budget does is that
11:19
you're telling TikTok to spend a certain amount of money for a certain period of time, right
11:27
So it's not daily. TikTok might spend more on Monday than they spend on Tuesday or less on Wednesday
11:33
than it spend on Thursday It all up to TikTok but they supposed to spend a certain budget within a certain time frame So that what life or time budget is So let just go and see daily budget And on daily budget you could set dates
11:51
You could set that you want, you could send dates. That's how many days you want this budget to be
11:58
So if you have $5 per day and then you set it for one week
12:04
within a space of one week, it just means that TikTok should be spending $5 per day
12:09
day, $5 per day, $5 per day until the one with duration is over, right
12:18
So if you put stock now with no endings, what it means is that if you have $5 per day
12:26
ticker is going to spend $5 per day and there's no end it's just continuously, right
12:30
as long as you have money in your TikTok balance. All right
12:34
So let's just go with lifetime budget. And really, what you choose here depends on your business objective
12:45
But I would recommend going for lifetime budget. And I always give you my reasons
12:50
My reasons for this is this. If you give TikTok like room to say, okay, seven days and then they should decide
12:57
For your product, there might be more people willing to make purchases
13:01
For example, on a Saturday than on a Friday, on a Friday. and on a Saturday, you don't know, right
13:07
So if you let TikTok do it lifetime budget, on certain ways, TikTok might spend your ad may have more spending
13:15
Maybe if on that particular day, you have more people likely to purchase your stuff on their platform
13:23
They might spend more on certain days. Maybe they might spend more on Sunday than they spend on Friday and buys this
13:28
But if you're doing like a daily budget, that means you've given TikTok rules
13:33
So even on the day where you might make more by spending more ad budget, they will not go beyond that daily limit, even though you still have money, but because you have a daily budget limit, they will not exceed that
13:46
All right. So let's just choose something here. And maybe we just pick $500, for example
13:53
And then over here, we just select the dates we want, the ad to start running, and when we want the ad to stop running
14:01
So once that is done, we just click on Continue. So when we click on Continue, we'll be on this page
14:13
Now, this is very important. I want to say that you could run your art as a post
14:20
What this means is that over here, if you click over here and then you log into your TikTok account, your TikTok user account
14:29
your Twitter user account is like the regular TikTok. account where you, you know, you follow people and follow people, watch your stuff
14:37
share your stuff, post yours as well and people follow you. So your regular user TikTok account, it could be like your personal TikTok user account
14:47
or your business TikTok user account, whichever one is this. Like if you log into that TikTok account, you could run your ads in a way that your ad creative
14:59
which you post over here, would also exist. in your TikTok posts
15:03
So basically it's more like you're posting something or your TikTok page and then you're promoting it as a post
15:10
I hope you understand. So what this means is if something exists
15:13
on your TikTok page already and then it's being promoted, people would see it
15:19
and they'll be able to follow your account because it's associated to your TikTok account
15:24
They'll be able to follow you. They'll be able to like the post and comment
15:28
And whatever likes and engagement and comments, and following, everything is like being attributed to your account, your Tick account
15:38
So you'll be able to get more followers to your Facebook account, more likes on your Ticktok
15:42
post, more views, and all of that. So I definitely, definitely suggest logging in and posting it on your Ticktok account
15:50
So you can see here, it says engage in meaningful interaction with customers to build a
15:55
community for your brand and increase the potential for sales. So I say go for this one
16:00
But there's a second option and there is a use case for that. You might decide not to, you know, run your ads as a post
16:09
You might decide to instead just upload your ads directly on your ad manager account
16:16
If you follow this other option, it means that your creative is not connected to your TikTok user account in any way
16:27
It exists just on its own because you're just upload. loading your creative directly from the TikTok Arts Manager and promoting it
16:34
So you're not linking it. So when people see your creative on TikTok, it does not lead them to your user account
16:41
Do you understand? So that is it. You can decide to post with your TikTok ads manager directly so that your post has nothing to do with your business
16:51
your existing user account on TikTok. Or you could decide to use this other option where you post on your TikTok profile
16:58
user profile and then you boost it as a boosted post ad
17:03
All right. So let's just, so I would really recommend you go with this one, this option
17:09
but I don't want to log into my Facebook account. So I would just go with this option in this tutorial
17:15
So over here you see that we're able to upload a maximum of 20 videos and we could even
17:21
upload images and convert those images into videos. So let's just go with this one
17:27
So on this one let use this video and let upload So you could either keep the original which means that TikTok would use your video
17:42
the way it is originally the way it is. Or you could go for quick optimization
17:47
which means that TikTok would optimize your video. They could probably add their own sound or their own filters and text and whatever
17:56
So basically, I need to shape the size of your, the size and frame of your video
18:05
So basically, if you go for quick optimization, it means that your art creative is more likely to be approved
18:12
because TikTok has to approve your art before it goes life. So I'll just go for quick optimize
18:18
And when you click on quick optimize, you'll be on this page
18:24
What you'd see here is that TikTok has done several other versions of the site
18:30
So if we scroll down, you see that you're able to generate more versions just in case you don't like any of this
18:38
You can also play each one. Let's just click on this. You can play each of the video to see what TikTok has basically done with it
18:51
All right. So let's close it. So basically, when you look at it, you can generate more versions
19:00
or more tick optimized version. You could also see the original one here
19:07
And what you just have to do from this point is to select, you can select how many of the versions you want
19:13
So we'll just select this one here and then we'll click continue. And once you click continue, you'll be on this page
19:21
Basically, this is where this is the last part of it. That's the create and add part of it
19:27
You're able to put your display name. For example, we can just use VBL, right
19:36
Or let's just use Vibbos link. All right. So you're able to put your display name
19:46
You're able to put a call to action button. For example, learn more, shop now, sign up, and what have you
19:55
You can also add more if you come over here. You can also add more ads, more ad creative, upload more to the list
20:07
So back here, you can pull your court action button. So you can also put URL
20:13
That's the URL of the site where you want your viewers to go to
20:19
So for example, we could put rebuttalink.com, which is our website. So you're also able to have a profile image
20:28
So what this means is the profile image that shows the profile image that will be showing as your as your profile photo, right
20:39
So you can do all of this. Then when you're done, you can click this and this says copy the text URL and profile image from the ads to all other ads within this ad group with just one click
20:53
So basically, if you click this and you have many ads, you have many ads
20:58
because this is an ad group, right? And these are the list of arts in the art group
21:03
just so you get this and art group. This is the list of the arts in the group. So if you want to have the same name, the same URL
21:12
the same action button, and the same profile picture, let's just select a random picture so you can see
21:23
All right. All right. So now you could see that the profile picture is selected. You should reflect it over here. Right. So that could be the logo to your website. So if you want to have the same profile picture, which is this, the same name, all right. And the same call to action button and URL. You just click here. And if you do that, if you've added multiple arts, like if you added multiple ads over here to this ad group
21:58
It means that the same information like this will be duplicated across all ads and the ad groups
22:04
So if you have like one, two, three, four, this is just one ad in this ad group
22:09
So if you had multiple and you click on this over here, it means that all the ads here will then be the same name, the same code action, same URL, and the same profile button
22:19
I hope that is well understood, right? The next thing you need to do after these is just click over here
22:26
It says by clicking this bus, you accept the TikTok for business, creative
22:31
I'm saying to our terms and condition, whatever. But you just click on that because you have to accept their terms and condition
22:39
And then when you've done that, you can then submit your TikTok ads for review
22:45
TikTok would review the ads. And after reviewing the ads, it will come up
22:50
Usually TikTok ad review takes 24 hours. they say officially that it will take not more than 24 hours
22:59
but most likely most of the time your art will get reviewed
23:03
in under like a few minutes, one hour, whatever but basically this is just the step of
23:09
creating your TikTok ad manager account and also running your TikTok ads
23:16
I do hope you find this tutorial helpful and with this that you understand how to
23:21
create your ad manager account and how to actually run start running your arts. All right, take care and bye-bye
