In the recently held TikTok World 2024 event, TikTok announced several tool improvements and updates, as well as new ad types. Social Media Today breaks down the details.

👀 Future updates

Think it’s done? The updates don’t stop there, though. TikTok also gave a sneak peek at what they’re working on. This includes performance automation, TikTok Shop marketing automation, and “Unified Lift”

Most of the new features will streamline what already exists in TikTok. This suggests that amid a potential U.S. ban, the platform still wants to make it easier for brands to sell on TikTok Shop.

Boost your sales with these 3 very straightforward PPC tips

You’ve probably read through dozens of Amazon Pay-Per-Click tips. But trust us when we say that this time, we’re giving you tips you can use to grow your sales. Best thing about it? It’s straightforward and no fuss.

EZ-commerce.net implements these 3 PPC strategies to enhance their client’s sales.

1. Initiate a down-only campaign targeting long-term keywords. 

  • Set a low bid of $0.02, but aim to appear at the top of search results by bidding 200 to 500 percent higher (put 200-500 percent at the top of the place).
  • Monitor performance every 72 hours, and if there are no impressions, increase the bid percentage by at least 50%. 

2. Implement the "Dvir Golden Nugget Trick” (aka an EZ-commerce secret!) 

  • Create an automatic campaign targeting "close match". 
  • Start with a modest bid of $0.02. Incrementally raise the bid by 20% every 96 hours or 4 days.
  • Once the bid cost approaches $1, reset to $0.02 and repeat the process. You’ll see sales with a very low ACOS that will lower your account's total advertising cost of sales or ACOS. 

3. Generate a coupon code offering at least a 20% discount. 

  • The code should be valid from the current date plus 2 days, and run for 30 days. 
  • Run the "abandoned cart" Brand Tailor promotion to re-engage these abandoned customers who will buy your product with the coupon code now.

What you need to know about dynamic pricing strategy

Ever heard of dynamic pricing? We bet you have.

It’s when airlines jack their prices up for the same flight, the closer the date of booking is to the flight. To keep it simple, It’s adjusting the prices depending on the current demand.

Influencer Marketing Hub shares how Amazon sellers can implement it.

Retailers use this strategy to optimize product prices, improve conversion rates, and increase revenue. Your prices aren’t stagnant, which gives you a leeway to offer competitive prices to shoppers.

Did you know that Amazon adjusts its prices 2.5 million times a day? Their repricing feature is powered by cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and big data analytics. 

Using a Dynamic Pricing software

Not sure how to execute this strategy flawlessly? You can use third-party repricing tools that integrate with Amazon instead of the built-in repricing tool. 

  • These seller tools offer more control over pricing. You can adjust prices based on business factors like inventory, sales velocity, and competitor prices.
  • They also offer better support and troubleshooting assistance.
  • However, you need to navigate potential legal and consumer perception risks.

Overall, dynamic pricing is an effective strategy for boosting profits and competitiveness. And its accuracy and reliability are expected to improve further.
