TIKTOK TRAFFIC IS NOT INDEXED

Amazon keeps everything secret šŸ¤¬Ā 

Whatā€™s more frustrating than Amazon support?

Amazonā€™s reporting šŸ¤¬Ā 

Your TikTok campaigns might be performing well, but itā€™s hard to tellā€¦.

I am currently preparing a case study and will publish it next week.

Here is the just:

If we track sessions (amount of people listing your page per day) and we flood it with TikTok traffic, we should see a rise in sessions. Right?

Sometimesā€¦.. look at this image:

This listing received 400 clicks per day for the past month from TikTok Ads:

  • When we turned the TikTok ad ON:Ā The sessions never changed

  • When we turned the TikTok ad OFF:Ā The sessions never changed

In fact, I have been pushing tons of products with TikTok adsā€¦

TikTok traffic is not indexed on Amazon šŸ¤¬ (or at least not represented in the reports).

This is kinda a big deal as it means a lot of reports are useless and the only metric we can rely on is SALES (which feels a bit archaic).

Itā€™s the only metric thatā€™s constantā€¦

Watch out for the case study coming next week šŸ‘Š

CONVERSION TWEAKS USING AI

1 tweak, 30 minutes work and almost $4,000 in sales šŸš€Ā 

It's easy to forget the basics (just yesterday I forgot to clean my browser history.... Then my wife saw it..... BASICS šŸ¤¬)

I have been on Amazon for over 10 years, and whilst trying to work on high level strategies I forgot the number #1 rule:

Always improve your conversion rate!

With all the fuss about AI and using AI to improve your sales, I wanted to give it a tryā€¦ā€¦

FYI: I am putting this up as case study coming in the next few days.

As Zonguru implemented an AI conversion feature (said to boost sales by 20%), I put it to the test...

Stats:

  • Product Price: $29.95

  • Increase in sales: $3,812.34 from a 2.18% improvement to the Conversion rate

How does this relate to TikTok?

  • Any additional traffic sent from TikTok will result additional sales, tweak your listing then flood it with TikTok traffic.

Basics, basics, basics.... When last did you check your conversion rate?

THE BEST AD FORMAT ON TIKTOK

ThisĀ TikTok Creative Agency sums it up perfectly

I get this question everydayā€¦.. ā€œWhat type of content should I create?ā€

You have 2 options:

Both methods are correct, but the easy method will save some time.

But donā€™t sleep on the TikTok Creative Centreā€¦.. TikTok is literally telling you what content to create.

Either way, you have a solution and in just 4 steps you can get going:

  1. Create the brief

  2. Hire a creator/influencer from InsenseĀ (the best platform to find creators and influencers)

  3. Send the brief and product

  4. Get the video and create an ad from it

The frustrsting thing isā€¦..

99% of Amazon sellers have NOT used TikTok adsā€¦ are you one of them?

KEYWORD RANKING ON TIKTOK

ā€˜Cos now you need to rank on Amazon and TikTok šŸ¤”

Itā€™s not enough to rank for keywords on Amazon, you now need to check your keyword tanking on TikTok.

Gen Z ā€˜Googleā€™ everything on TikTok:

How many Amazon sellers are trying to rank on TikTok?

ZERO!!!

If no one is doing it, then itā€™s a ā€˜blue oceanā€™ā€¦.

Remember, TikTok ads are cheap (kinda like my ex šŸ¤¬Ā ), so this is the best time to make sure you are ranking for those keywords.

ā€˜Cos I am listening (just donā€™t tell my wife, I havenā€™t ā€˜heardā€™ her complain about the dishes in years šŸ¤Æ)

Last week I asked everyone for their opinion about rebates on TikTok

Big thanks to Amy šŸ‘Šā€¦. fully agree:

Itā€™s not too lateā€¦. I want to know what you think:

Is this strategy against Amazon TOS?
