TikTok Ads, set up from zero and measured before the first dollar

From my own work

Anonymized, with the denominator and the caveats left in.

Channel launches
From zero

Stood up a new casino brand's Meta acquisition channel from zero in 2026, and TikTok Ads for two brands from zero.

AI video pipeline
6 ads in one day

Built an AI video ad pipeline with a spend ledger and compliance gates: six finished vertical ads for two apps in one day under a EUR 5 per-app model budget.

  2. A written plan

  3. The work

    Setup, buying, reviews or advice, depending on the service, reported against your backend numbers with the stop rules agreed up front.

FAQ

Common questions

What do you need from us?

Access to your TikTok Business Center, your MMP or site tags, and the products or app you want to promote.

Do you make the videos?

Yes. Native vertical formats produced in-house with AI and checked against TikTok's ad policies, with AI content labels where TikTok requires them.

Is TikTok right for my product?

If your buyers are on it and your creative can carry the message in the first seconds, it is worth a test with a written stop rule. The free diagnostic is a good place to decide.
