• Run experiments (A/B Test): Segment audience or form content to find the most effective version, optimizing both costs and actual conversion rates.
• Automatic notifications & remarketing: Activate sending emails, messages, or reminder ads to users who haven't completed the form, increasing the chance of closing deals.

Conclusion:

TikTok Lead Generation Ads is not just a simple lead collection system but also a powerful tool that helps SMEs increase real data – thereby enhancing sales effectiveness thanks to automated workflows, easy connectivity, and continuous optimization. This is the “key” to increasing conversions, reducing costs, and breaking through revenue in today’s digital era.

Create customer collection forms on TikTok: Choose optimal information fields and user experience

Select essential information fields for TikTok Forms

Determining the information fields in the form directly affects the completion rate and the quality of data that businesses collect through TikTok Lead Generation Ads. According to research by Harvard Business Review, users will abandon the form if they have to fill in too many unnecessary fields that are not really needed. DPS.MEDIA recommends that SMEs should focus only on basic fields with high exploitation value such as:

• Full name
• Contact phone number
• Email (if B2B or information verification is needed)
• Field of interest or specific need

Reducing fields such as address, gender, or age will help lower psychological barriers and increase the likelihood of the form being successfully submitted. Additionally, take advantage of TikTok’s auto-fill fields to save customers’ time.

Optimize the experience

Optimize the form-filling experience on TikTok

To increase the form completion rate and the quality of data collected from TikTok Lead Generation Ads, besides selecting essential information fields, businesses need to pay attention to optimizing user experience when filling out the form:

• Use auto-fill: Prioritize fields that TikTok can auto-fill (full name, email, phone number) to reduce manual input for customers.
• Design concise forms: Only keep 2-4 truly necessary fields. The shorter the form, the higher the completion rate.
• Clear instructions: Add a brief description or placeholder so customers understand what they need to fill in, avoiding confusion.
• Information security commitment: Attach a privacy notice to reassure customers when providing personal information.
• Clear call-to-action: The form submit button should stand out and use action-driven words like “Get free consultation”, “Register now”, etc.

Note: After customers submit the form, set up a confirmation or thank you message, and prepare an automated customer care process to increase conversion rates.

In summary:

only keep truly necessary information fields, utilize auto-fill, optimize the form-filling experience, and ensure security to increase lead collection effectiveness from TikTok.

Secrets to maximizing conversion rates with engaging ad content on TikTok

Choose messages that hit the customer's “pain points”

DPS.MEDIA it is observed that to maximize conversion rates on TikTok, ad content needs to focus on the insight real needs of customers. According to Harvard Business Review, successful campaigns often start by identifying the right “pain points” and hidden desires of users. Try putting yourself in the customer’s shoes, use familiar language, dynamic images, and trending music to create a friendly, natural feeling. For example, a local cosmetics brand increased their form completion rate by 40% just by changing the first question to: “What skin concerns are you experiencing?” instead of “What offer do you want to receive?”.

Design concise forms, optimize mobile experience

Customer collection forms on TikTok should be concise, easy to understand and only request truly necessary information. According to Think with Google, form completion rates increase by 27% when the number of fields drops below 4. DPS.MEDIA recommends:

• Only ask for the most important information (name, phone number, email)
• Use quick-select fields (dropdown, tick box) instead of manual entry
• Add a data privacy commitment to increase trust

Apply storytelling and FOMO elements in advertising videos

The DPS.MEDIA team regularly applies storytelling combining FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) elements to create strong motivation for action. A recent case study: an advertising campaign for an English course for working adults, the video tells the story of a young person missing a promotion opportunity due to lack of language skills, ending with a call to action: “Only 50 final offers left!”. As a result, the conversion rate doubled compared to a video that only introduced product features.

Analyze data and measure the effectiveness of Lead Generation campaigns on TikTok

Performance metrics for Lead Generation on TikTok

DPS.MEDIA recognizes that, to evaluate the effectiveness of a Lead Generation campaign on TikTok, SMEs need to focus on key metrics such as: CTR (Click-Through Rate), CR (Conversion Rate), and cost per lead (CPL). According to a Harvard Business Review report (2022), analyzing each step of the customer journey from viewing the ad to completing the form is very important:

• Lead quality: Consider the conversion rate from lead to actual customer, not just the quantity.
• Content interaction: Measure the frequency of video replays, number of comments or shares – important evidence of real interest.
• By time to lead: The shorter the average time for a lead to complete the form, the more suitable the content and form are.

Compare the effectiveness of channels using real data

Measured by the conversion rate from lead to actual customer.

Suggested explanation after the data table:

• TikTok brings the lowest cost per lead, with good CTR and conversion rates for the young customer segment.
• Google provides the highest lead quality but with a higher CPL.
• Facebook is suitable for brand awareness and remarketing, though its CPL is not as optimal as TikTok.

In summary: SMEs should evaluate from multiple perspectives (quality, cost, speed, and suitability with target audience) to optimize lead generation effectiveness on each platform!

• Real-time updates: Whenever there is a new lead, information is automatically synced to the sales team for follow-up without missing any.
