Create a Campaign

#A Campaign is an executable outreach goal

An Affiliate Campaign combines the product, offer, target Creators, daily pace, and opening message. The Agent uses those boundaries to find and evaluate Creators, while the Campaign records invitations, responses, and downstream outcomes.

Before beginning, confirm that Affiliate is enabled for the Shop, the product is linked to Product Knowledge, and the team has configured Approval Policies.

A Campaign does not create BD ownership. Sending a Target Collaboration invitation or opening message is global, one-way outreach from the seller account. It does not assign the Creator to the person who created the Campaign or sent the invitation. The system selects one responsible BD under the Team & Channels assignment rules only after the Creator sends an inbound message or submits a Sample Application.

#1. Begin in the Campaign directory

Open Affiliate → Campaigns. The directory separates Active, Paused, and Completed Campaigns and summarizes daily goals and funnel progress.

Select Create Campaign to open a four-step wizard. Every step changes how automation operates, so have a business owner review the complete draft before launch.

#2. Step one: Shop, Product, and Offer

Choose the Shop and Product, then enter concrete terms such as commission, collaboration period, and seller contact email. These fields form the Agent’s external authority boundary; do not enter a commission or benefit that has not been approved.

Automatic Sample approval is a separate choice. When enabled, qualifying applications may proceed without case-by-case review. Keep manual review on for the first run until selection and cost standards are stable.

#3. Step two: Targeting and filters

Set the daily target and platform-verifiable Creator criteria. Filters are hard constraints: only candidates that satisfy them can continue through evaluation.

The AI can also generate groups of English search phrases to discover Creators from different content angles. Each group should express a specific theme such as use case, audience, or content style. Review generated phrases so discovery remains aligned with the real product position.

Soft guidance tells the Agent what to prefer. Hard filters decide who is eligible. Do not use prose guidance as a substitute for a market, category, or performance requirement that must always hold.

#4. Step three: Opening outreach

Choose collaboration invitation with a direct message, or collaboration-only. For a direct message, let AI prepare a draft or write one directly.

The opening should explain why this Creator is relevant, how the product fits their content, and the next step. Available variables insert the Creator, Product, and Shop names. Never turn an unverified sales result, inventory level, or outcome into a promise.

After sending the invitation, use the Campaign funnel to monitor outreach. Do not treat an invited Creator as an existing Creator of any BD. Once the Creator replies or applies for a Sample, open Creator assignments to see the actual owner.

#5. Step four: Confirm authority and launch

Review the summary carefully:

• correct Product and Shop;
• approved commission, Sample terms, and collaboration period;
• a daily target below the Shop-level outreach ceiling;
• precise qualification criteria;
• an opening message that matches brand voice;
• the intended Sample approval mode.

The daily target is an operating goal, not an official TikTok quota. Messages advance only during the Shop’s local delivery window, and actual volume also depends on candidate quality, platform limits, throttling, and safeguards.

#6. Read Campaign detail

Open a Campaign to see today’s progress, lifetime results, and the funnel from candidate evaluation through invitation, response, and later outcomes.

If the daily goal is missed, inspect rejection counts and reasons at each stage. When many candidates fail qualification, revise the target or discovery direction before simply increasing volume.

Continue down the page to review AI-generated Search Plans and the Creator Decision Ledger. Search Plans explain the angles used to discover candidates; the ledger explains why a candidate entered or left the workflow.

#7. Adjust or finish a Campaign

• Pause: stop new progress temporarily while preserving data and context.
• Reopen: continue after correcting the Product, target, or team capacity.
• Edit: change settings that remain editable.
• Copy as draft: reuse the structure for another Product or market.
• Archive: remove a Campaign from day-to-day views once it will not be used again.

After a material change to targeting or benefits, review Product Knowledge and Approval Policies again. The Campaign defines what to do, Product Knowledge defines which facts are valid, and policy defines where a person must intervene.

#Recommended daily check

1. Compare today’s target with actual progress.
2. Inspect rejection reasons that dominate the funnel.
3. Sample Search Plans and Creator decisions for alignment.
4. Use Agent and Manual Workbenches for policy review, Agent Escalations, Sample Applications, and Creator messages.
5. Increase the daily target only after match quality and review outcomes are stable.
