📌 Paid promotion. TikTok for Business sponsored this video. All opinions are my own.
TikTok offered to match my ad spend dollar for dollar up to $6,000. So I gave TikTok Ads Manager a real first look and set up a live campaign for my web design business, JP Web, on camera. I've run plenty of Google and Facebook ads but never touched TikTok advertising. So this is the whole platform start to finish: sign up, dashboard, campaign builder, pixel, targeting, budget, and exactly how the spend-match offer works.

💰 How the match works. You spend it, TikTok matches it, dollar for dollar:
• Spend $200 → get $200
• Spend $500 → get $500
• Spend $1,000 → get $1,000
• Spend $4,000 → get $4,000
• Spend $6,000 → get $6,000
I started small with a $20/day test so you can see how it works without a big commitment.
Quick heads-up: TikTok Ads Manager is the real advertiser platform, NOT the "Promote" button on a video. Two different things, and I'll show you the right one here.
