    TikTok ads agency built around creative velocity.

    TikTok rewards native, high-volume creative and punishes repurposed brand film. We run the concept pipeline and the measurement that keeps cheap clicks honest.

    TikTok is the clearest example of a channel where the media buyer is the smaller half of the job. Performance tracks concept quality, hook rate and posting velocity far more than bid tuning. It's also the channel most likely to look brilliant in-platform and thin in the P&L, because attribution windows flatter it. We build the creative engine and hold the channel to a blended standard from day one.

    // Key_Takeaways

    • Hook rate in the first two seconds predicts more of TikTok performance than any audience setting.
    • Spark Ads on real creator posts consistently beat brand-produced equivalents in both cost and longevity.
    • TikTok's reported ROAS is directionally useful and absolutely not a P&L number.
    • The channel drives measurable branded search lift — track it in Search Console or you'll underrate it.

    On TikTok you are not buying placement, you are buying attention in the first two seconds. Everything else is downstream of the hook.

    // Frequently_Asked

    Questions about this engagement.

    Does TikTok work for higher-priced or B2B products?+

    It can, but rarely as a last-click channel. For considered purchases it works best as a demand generator measured on blended CAC and branded search lift, with search and email capturing the conversion.

    We don't have creators. Can you source them?+

    Yes. Creator sourcing, briefing, licensing and whitelisting for Spark Ads are part of the retainer. We keep usage rights documented so your best-performing assets don't expire out from under you.

    How do we know TikTok isn't just stealing credit from Google?+

    Holdouts and spend-step tests. When we cut or raise TikTok spend in matched geographies, the blended number moves or it doesn't — that's the read we hold the channel to.

    What does it cost to have you run our ads?+

    Paid media management runs $6,500–$14,500 per month depending on spend and channel count; a one-off paid media audit is $4,500. We don't take a percentage of spend — that model rewards us for spending more of your money, not for making it work.

    Do we keep ownership of our ad accounts?+

    Always. Accounts, pixels, conversion data, creative files and audiences stay in your business manager under your ownership. We work inside your accounts as a partner, so if we part ways you keep every asset and every day of learning history.

    How does the guarantee apply to paid media?+

    Implement our 90-day plan and if the agreed leading indicators don't move within 3–6 months, we refund our fees in full. The guarantee covers our fee, not your ad spend — no agency can guarantee auction outcomes, and anyone who does is guessing.

    How do we make sure our company shows up on AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini?+

    Three layers, in order. First, entity clarity: one canonical Organization with @id anchors, sameAs links to authoritative databases, and knowsAbout coverage of your real expertise. Second, extractable content: atomic answer blocks, comparison tables, transparent pricing and specs, and FAQ blocks on every commercial page. Third, corroboration: mentions in the roundups, directories, review platforms, and trade publications those engines retrieve. Measure it by probing a fixed set of buying questions monthly and tracking citation frequency per engine.

    What actually makes a page get cited by AI instead of just ranked?+

    Citability. AI engines lift passages that answer one question completely in 40–80 words, in plain language, with a concrete number, definition, or list. Pages that bury the answer under narrative rarely get quoted. We rewrite key pages so every important question has a self-contained answer block, wrapped in schema that labels what it is.

    Is SEO still worth investing in now that AI answers so many queries?+

    Yes, because AI answers are built from indexed pages. Every major assistant retrieves from a crawled index, so pages that aren't crawlable, renderable, or structured never enter the candidate pool. Classic SEO is now the entry requirement for AI visibility, and the two programs share almost all of the same work.

    How quickly can we expect results from an Arise GEO engagement?+

    Technical recovery and on-page work typically show movement in 30–60 days. AI citation lift on long-tail and comparison queries usually lands in 30–90 days. Category-level authority and head-term rankings are a 6–12 month curve. Every engagement ships a sequenced 90-day plan so early wins fund the long work.

    What do we get, and what does it cost?+

    You get a forensic audit, a prioritized 90-day execution plan with effort and impact scoring, and optional done-for-you implementation by our engineers and editors. Pricing is scoped per engagement based on catalog size, locale count, and whether you want execution included. Implement our 90-day plan and if you don't see results in 3–6 months, we refund you in full.
