TikTok Ads Management

Short-form video advertising that captures attention and drives real results.

TikTok has become a significant advertising channel for brands targeting 18–45-year-old audiences in Australia and New Zealand, with engagement rates that outperform most other social platforms. New Wave Digital manages TikTok Ads campaigns with a focus on platform-native creative, audience strategy, and measurable commercial outcomes.

What We Do

TikTok Ads: reach the audiences that matter most

TikTok's algorithm-driven feed delivers content to users based on interest and engagement signals rather than purely social connections. This means brands with the right creative can achieve exceptional reach and engagement even without large existing followings. For advertisers, this creates a unique opportunity to reach highly targeted audiences efficiently; but only with creative that feels native to the platform.

New Wave Digital approaches TikTok advertising with a content-first mindset. TikTok users are highly attuned to advertising that feels overly polished or out of place. The most effective TikTok Ads blend seamlessly into the organic content experience: they are fast, engaging, authentic-feeling, and designed to capture attention within the first two seconds.

We manage In-Feed Ads, TopView, Branded Hashtag Challenges, and Spark Ads (boosting organic content). We also advise on TikTok Shop integration for relevant eCommerce clients. Our campaign strategies are tailored to your objective, awareness, consideration, or conversion, with creative guidance and optimisation built in.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is TikTok relevant for my B2B brand?
It depends on your audience. If your target buyers are 25–45 years old and in sectors like technology, finance, professional services, or retail, TikTok is increasingly a relevant awareness channel. It is particularly effective for building brand recognition among a generation of buyers who are now moving into senior decision-making roles.
Do you produce TikTok video content?
We provide creative strategy and direction. We work with your team or recommended content creators to produce final video assets. We can advise on format, scripting structure, hooks, and platform-specific best practices to maximise performance.
What is the minimum budget for TikTok Ads?
TikTok has minimum campaign budget requirements (typically $50/day at the campaign level). For meaningful testing and optimisation, we recommend a minimum of $3,000 per month in media spend. Lower budgets can work for specific objectives but limit the speed of learning and optimisation.
How does TikTok Ads compare to Meta Ads for awareness?
TikTok typically achieves lower CPMs (cost per thousand impressions) than Meta for awareness campaigns in Australia and NZ. Engagement rates on TikTok are also significantly higher than Facebook. However, conversion tracking maturity and audience data depth are areas where Meta currently has an advantage. The two platforms complement each other well in a full-funnel strategy.
