Freelancers and consultants
TikTok ads freelancers and consultants
Independent TikTok ads specialists for online stores, where creative is the whole job, and what to settle before you start.
When you need this
- Your products are visual and your audience is on TikTok, but nobody in the team can produce native video.
- You want to test the channel for a season without an agency contract.
- TikTok Shop and TikTok ads overlap and you need one person who understands both.
What it costs, in general terms
Freelancers and consultants usually charge a flat monthly fee, an hourly or day rate, or a percentage of ad spend, with shorter notice periods than agencies and often no minimum spend. Ask for the fee model, the notice period and the hours you get in writing before you compare.
How to choose
- 01Ask to see ads they ran and how they sourced the creators or footage.
- 02Ask how they measure results against the store's own numbers, since platform attribution differs by channel.
- 03Confirm the ad account and pixel are in your TikTok Business Center.
The questions every freelancer is compared on are on how we grade.

Frequently asked questions
Does TikTok work for every store?
No. It suits products that can be shown and explained in a short video and audiences that are on the platform. A freelancer should be willing to say your store is not a fit, and to propose a small test before a commitment.
Who makes the videos?
Decide this first. Some freelancers brief and manage creators, some edit footage you supply, some only run media. The answer changes what you pay and how fast you can test.
How long should a test run?
Long enough to test several creatives at a budget that produces a readable number of orders. Agree the test budget, the duration and the decision rule in writing before spending.
