TikTok Shop is an e-commerce solution that integrates entertainment and shopping. To increase GMV, which equals shop traffic times conversion times average order value, merchants should focus on three organic tips: first, maximize product catalogue with good assortment and optimized listings including clear images, videos, and descriptions; second, create engaging content by posting 4-30 shoppable videos weekly and running daily livestreams for at least an hour with hooks, trends, and promos; third, collaborate with affiliates who produce videos and livestreams for commissions. After establishing organic growth, merchants can use paid ads like Live GMV Max and Video Shopping Ads for precision targeting and expanded reach across the feed and Shop Tab.
