TikTokMost businesses underestimate how ready they are for TikTok | TikTok For Business Blog
TikTok's UK/Europe scale (30M+ UK, 200M+ EU) and content graph make category objections obsolete. For ad ops, success comes from relevance, not trends: proof-led demos, explainers, reviews, and problem-solving content can reach high-intent audiences without a large follower base. Case studies show material performance: Toyota CPA -38%, BCP 10x registrations, Randstad 2.81% CTR/17M impressions, Prep Kitchen +44% conversion and +374% orders with Smart+, PureGym CPA -77%, HydroClean cost per conversation -74%. Action: test utility/creator content, use Smart+ for scaled creative testing, layer TopView on trusted content, and target niche communities rather than broad reach.
TikTokYour customer saw it on TikTok. Your dashboard didn’t | TikTok For Business Blog
TikTok’s article argues last-click attribution creates a major measurement blind spot for ad ops. Because customer journeys loop across days, devices, and platforms, dashboards often credit only the final click and miss TikTok’s demand-creation role. Key data: 79% of TikTok-driven purchases are unattributed, 73% of click attribution undervalues TikTok conversions, and 50%+ undervalues ROI. TikTok users are also 30% more likely to convert and spend 20% more. The takeaway: short-term reporting can misallocate budget away from demand generation. Agencies should adopt measurement that captures full-funnel impact and not rely on pixel attribution alone.
AdjustHalloween app trends: Insights for your 2026 campaign | Adjust
Adjust's Halloween 2025 data across six weeks shows the holiday window opens well before October 31 and differs by category and market. Entertainment installs peaked the weekend before Halloween (up 42–44% vs. summer baseline), with OTT/streaming and video content installs up 120% on October 25 and 300% YoY. Photo and video sessions instead spiked on Halloween night itself (+6% global vs. the four prior Fridays; Canada +15%, Germany +13%, U.K. +11%, U.S. +9%, Mexico +7%). Single global send dates miss market-level peaks, so ad ops should time creative, push, and budget shifts per market—especially in Mexico, where activity runs through Día de los Muertos.
AdjustThe 4R framework for understanding deep linking | Adjust
Karthik Kannan distills deep linking into a practical 4R framework: Remember, Reach, Retrieve, Route. For ad ops teams, the key insight is that campaign context must survive the click-to-app journey. Adjust TrueLink captures link parameters on click; the user is then guided into the app via Universal Links, Android App Links, URI schemes, app stores, or web-to-app flows. On SDK init, the app session is matched and attributed to the click, then link data is passed to the app for routing. Decision-makers should ensure deep link paths, campaign parameters, attribution matching, and fallback journeys are tested to protect measurement and user experience.
