One Product, Two Converting Angles
Two organic TikTok creatives for the same product, intentionally designed to serve different stages of the purchase journey.
Rather than optimising for virality, both assets were built to align with buyer psychology on TikTok. Capturing attention, qualifying intent, and converting over time.
Combined impact:
350K+ total views
£1,070+ total GMV
70+ items sold
CTR range: 2.8–5.7%
Peak CTOR: 5.13%
These results demonstrate how feed-first creative can function as performance assets when framed around behavioural intent rather than reach alone.
Ad 1: Education -Led, Consideration First
Using a curiosity-led format captures attention, educates the audience, and converts through repeat exposure.
Single organic TikTok generated £380+ GMV from one video across its lifecycle, driven by high initial interest and delayed conversion as trust accumulated over time.
Total Views: ~179K Total GMV: £380+ Average CTR: 3.7–5.7% Peak CTOR: 5.13% Timeframe: ~5 months (organic)
