TikTok recently launched a new messaging advertising objective that allows customers to be redirected from TikTok to the Messenger or WhatsApp Business platforms.
However, with this form of Messages advertising from TikTok, if you don't use Pancake, you won't be able to measure how many customers actually start conversations with business.
The demo images of the solution below apply to the Messenger (Facebook) channel. You need to have Admin rights on Pancake to be able to access all of the sections below.
You can see the TikTok Ad_id this customer interacted with, along with the time the customer interacted with that ad.
Your Facebook page ad statistics will also report the number of conversations coming from TikTok Messaging Ads.
This metric on Pancake is DIFFERENT from the metric on TikTok Ads Manager due to different calculation methods. Please see explanation HERE
When using Pancake, you can also know which TikTok Ads and TikTok Ads videos this customer came from, even though your page is a Facebook page.
If you use Pancake POS to manage orders, you can also filter out orders with TikTok Ads as their source.
The instructions below will help you identify customers chatting with you from TikTok Messaging Ads.
Before start: - You need a Facebook page/target WhatsApp Business API number to receive guest messages from TikTok ads. - You are using Pancake to reply to customers of the above Facebook page/WhatsApp Business API number. - You need to have a TikTok advertising account with the Instant Messaging Apps feature enabled.
Because this is a feature in Beta, not all TikTok ad accounts have it, so you need to register a new ad account, or register with Pancake/TikTok to open this feature. Compare two ways to register to open the Instant Messaging Apps feature.
