The Starting Point (Challenges & Goals)

Major Challenges

Below are the key challenges the brand was facing before reaching us:

Order Sync Issue (TikTok Shop → Shopify)

When this client came onboard, orders from TikTok Shop were not syncing properly into Shopify. Some orders were not pulling in at all, while others were getting duplicated.

This results in fulfillment delay and makes reporting very confusing.

Resolved

TikTok Shop Agency USA fixed this issue through Silk Connect and syncing is now fully seamless.

Low Baseline Volume

Before we began managing the brand, the monthly order volume was way too low which impacts the advertising efficiency and growth.

In March 2025, the store processed 147 orders per month (around 5 orders per day).

Limited Visibility on TikTok Shop

Product appearance was low, and campaign structure is not perfect at all which reduces the product discovery and conversion rate.

Objectives

Stabilize operations by fixing TikTok to Shopify sync and removing duplicates.
Scale orders and profit so the client can seamlessly grow with confidence on TikTok Shop.
Enhance the visibility for primary SKU to build momentum, reviews, and social proof.

Current (October 2025 to Oct 20)
