• Operated TikTok Shop hands-on, including the storefront, Affiliate Center, open collaboration, targeted collaborations, and sample flows.

• Establish a weekly pipeline of whitelisted creator ads by day 90.
• Generate the first creator-sourced ad that receives meaningful paid-media spend.

Performance Targets

• Deliver 2–3 whitelisted ads per week and 25–40 per quarter.
• Generate at least 15 posts per 100 products through wide, unmanaged seeding.
• Maintain a post rate of 70% or higher for curated kits.
• Maintain active TikTok Shop affiliates and deliver against predetermined GMV targets.
• Ensure every creator contract includes whitelisting rights.
• Establish and progressively reduce the total cost per whitelisted ad.
• Ensure creator-content production never delays a new-channel test.
