TikTok Ads agencies: scope and selection criteria

When this scope fits

Use this scope when the product can be demonstrated and new creative can be produced consistently. Confirm current account and market eligibility for the specific advertiser before budgeting a launch.

Questions that expose the scope

• Who writes, films, edits and approves each video?
• What usage rights survive the end of the engagement?
• Which creative test changes one hypothesis at a time?
