TikTok Ads Agency
for Ecommerce Brands

We run TikTok Ads for ecommerce brands as a discovery channel, and it is the strongest one available for reaching audiences under 35 in fashion, beauty and lifestyle.

TikTok is not Meta with a different logo. It has its own creative language, its own testing pace and its own performance logic. We run Spark Ads on native content, prospecting with broad audiences, and a creative pipeline that keeps producing at the rate the platform demands.

What TikTok performance actually depends on

We run TikTok on its own terms, not as an extension of Meta, from native creative strategy through to campaign structure and measurement. Every decision is validated with data and tied to real profitability. These are the factors that decide whether an account performs.
Evaluation and Migration icon

Native content wins

On TikTok, an ad that looks like an ad fails. What works is content that sits naturally in the feed, using the language, pace and codes of the platform. Spark Ads built on organic posts that have already proved themselves are the foundation of a profitable strategy.

Creative burns out fast

Creative fatigues far quicker on TikTok than on Meta. The pace of production and asset renewal is what separates an account that scales from one that stalls. Without a steady creative pipeline, performance drops within weeks.

Discovery, not capture

TikTok generates demand at the discovery stage, reaching customers who did not know the brand existed. That makes it the right channel for opening up audiences Meta has already saturated, but it also means its impact has to be measured with attribution that credits its role across the funnel, not on last-click ROAS alone.

Fit by vertical

TikTok performs in fashion, beauty, skincare and lifestyle aimed at younger audiences, and fits less well in verticals with older customers or a very high average order value. Knowing when TikTok is a priority channel and when it is a supporting one is part of the strategy.

How we manage your TikTok Ads campaigns

Creative strategy and pipeline

We run a continuous flow of native creative: content that respects the codes of the platform, constant testing of hooks and angles, and Spark Ads built on organic posts that have already shown traction.

Campaign structure and prospecting

We design campaign structures suited to how TikTok's algorithm works, prospecting with broad audiences that let the platform's optimisation do its job instead of over-segmenting it.

Working with creators and UGC

We coordinate with your content team, or with creators where that makes sense, to keep the pipeline fed with the native, authentic content that performs best on the platform.

Measurement and attribution

We set up measurement to understand TikTok's real role in the funnel, crediting what it contributes at the discovery stage rather than judging it on last-click ROAS, and we report in POAS.

Native creative as the performance engine on TikTok

On TikTok, an ad that looks like an ad fails. What works is content that sits naturally in the feed, in the language, pace and codes of the platform. So we build creative for TikTok from scratch rather than adapting what runs on Meta, and we lean on Spark Ads over organic posts that have already shown traction, keeping the authenticity the platform rewards.

We iterate every concept against real performance data, scaling what converts profitably and refreshing assets faster than on any other platform, because TikTok creative fatigues far more quickly. That continuous pipeline is the variable that genuinely moves performance and keeps CAC under control as you scale.

Real measurement, beyond ROAS

The ROAS TikTok reports is misleading. It leans on view-through conversions, it overstates its own contribution on a platform built around discovery, and it knows nothing about your real margin. That is why we measure in POAS (Profit on Ad Spend), factoring in the margin on each sale, returns and true product cost, so you can separate the campaigns that generate profit from the ones that only generate revenue. Combined with the TikTok Events API to recover signal server-side, and attribution that credits TikTok’s role across the whole funnel, you get a reliable read on which spend is putting real money into your P&L.

Why STRAT?

We are not a generalist agency that also runs TikTok Ads. We work only with ecommerce, and we treat TikTok as a platform with its own creative and performance logic rather than a second home for Meta assets. We know which verticals make it a priority channel and which make it a supporting one, and why production speed matters more here than anywhere else.

We apply that specialisation with a team that produces and validates native creative continuously. Every decision on your account is made against tested business criteria and reported in POAS connected to your P&L, not in isolated platform metrics.

Considering TikTok Ads for your ecommerce brand?

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, particularly for brands with visual product and under-35 audiences in verticals like fashion, beauty, skincare and lifestyle. TikTok is currently the strongest discovery channel for reaching customers who had never heard of the brand. Performance depends almost entirely on the quality and pace of native creative: brands that produce good content scale, brands that recycle their Meta ads do not. The fit is not the same across every vertical.

Spark Ads are TikTok ads built on existing organic posts, either your own or a creator’s, rather than on content made purely for advertising. They keep the look and authenticity of native content, they carry over the organic engagement (likes, comments), and they usually outperform traditional ads because they do not read as advertising. They are the foundation of a profitable TikTok strategy.

We would not recommend it. TikTok has its own creative language: a faster pace, natively vertical format, specific cultural codes and an authentic tone. Creative that works on Meta usually reads as intrusive advertising on TikTok and performs badly. What works is content that sits naturally in the feed, which is why a dedicated TikTok creative pipeline is the most important investment you can make on this platform.

TikTok makes sense as a discovery channel when your product is visual, your target audience is on the platform (particularly under 35) and Meta is starting to saturate audiences and push CAC up. It is especially effective for opening up new customer volume. In verticals with older customers or a very high average order value the fit can be more limited, which is something we assess in the initial audit.

TikTok usually works at the discovery stage, so judging it on last-click ROAS alone undervalues what it contributes to the business. We set up measurement to see how TikTok feeds the full funnel and report in POAS and blended MER, assessing its impact across acquisition as a whole rather than treating it as an isolated channel.
