This session will guide you step-by-step through setting up a campaign, optimizing budgets, and targeting the right audience for your Shopify dropshipping store.

Setting Up the Campaign

  1. Select Campaign Objective

    • Begin by logging into your TikTok Ads Manager.
    • Click on the 'Create Ad' button located on the right side.
    • Opt for 'Advanced' settings instead of 'Basic' to unlock more features.
    • Choose 'Website Conversion' as your campaign objective if you wish to drive traffic directly to your Shopify store.
  2. Campaign Budget Optimization

    • You can set a campaign budget that will allocate your funds to multiple ad sets based on performance.
    • If you prefer to manage budgets at the ad set level, you can skip the campaign budget optimization.
    • Enter your campaign budget, for example, $ 20, and the funds will be distributed across all your ad sets according to their performance.
  3. Pixel Setup

    • Select 'Website Conversion' and set up a TikTok Pixel to track conversions better.
    • Choose your optimization event, such as 'Complete Payment', to focus on conversions.
