How to create a TikTok Shop Campaign Brief

Overview

TikTok Shop is a one-stop e-commerce solution for driving brand growth and sales directly on TikTok. It brings together brands, merchants, and creators and connects them with their communities on TikTok. It allows for the full shopping journey to occur, all within the TikTok App.

Three ways to shop within TikTok

LIVE Shopping: Shop directly from a LIVE stream by tapping the pinned products or browsing the shopping basket icon. Clients can find TikTok creators on Insense to carry out Lives with direct shoppable links

Shoppable videos: Shop directly from a shoppable in-feed video by tapping the product link and basket icon. Clients can hire creators and request videos as before, but now have the option of an embedded link to complete the purchase process within the app.
Product Showcase: Shop directly from a brand or creator account and get access to products within the app. Clients can set up their own TikTok shop, source static images and videos from Insense creators (or repurpose), allow direct shopping, and create product lists that creators can apply to promote and earn commissions.

How does it work?

The brand has to register for TikTok Shop (Creators as well). The brand needs to enroll in the TikTok Shop Affiliate program and choose a plan, there are 3 plans:

Open Plan: Merchants can make products available publicly to any creators. Creators must apply to promote products and be approved by the merchant. This plan is recommended.

Shop Plan: Merchants can include all products from the shop to the product selection marketplace with a universal commission rate.

Target Plan: Merchants select specific creators to participate in and feature their products. Only creators that merchants have selected will show products as available

Once the brand has been enrolled in this affiliate program, creators (depending on the plan) can apply to add products to either live videos or short in-feed shoppable videos and earn commissions.
