Season 4, Episode 16: TikTok's approach to marketing measurement (with Jorge Ruiz)

In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Jorge Ruiz, TikTok's Global Head of Marketing Science, about the measurement methodologies that TikTok employs with its advertising clients. Among other things, we discuss:

• How TikTok provides measurement solutions to clients in light of a more restrictive privacy environment;
• The approaches, methodologies, and tools are "future-proofed" for further data restrictions;
• The most common mistakes that advertisers make with measurement;
• The measurement solutions that clients have seen the most success with;
• How measurement methodologies differ between app and eCommerce advertisers;
• How advertisers should approach creative analytics, and what kinds of metrics are the most important to consider when assessing creative;
• How advertisers should approach incrementality measurement;
• How advertisers should think about balancing awareness and direct response budget;
• Whether and when advertisers should invest into building measurement tools internally;
• The best ways for advertisers to adapt to a dynamic privacy environment.
