Tips on how to create TikTok ads that stand out
Master the art of storytelling
Produce content that offers an attention-grabbing story with a hook and satisfying resolution. Start with a bang and build tension.
Leverage trends
The platform thrives on users building off virality. hopping on trends that align with your brand or product can help your ad feel more native to the platform and increase engagement.
For example, the beige flag trend. (Where something is neither good nor bad but makes you pause for a moment when you notice it and then just continue on).
Music and sound is key
Music is a crucial component of TikTok. Choose catchy and upbeat tracks that match your ad’s theme and resonate with the audience. Explore sound effects that may enhance your ad’s impact, like AI voiceover. Don’t rush it: finding the right match is important.

If you live outside NYC, it’s likely you’ve missed this ad. It’s a prime example of how to make a killer ad on the app.
Why does it work?
The voiceover is generated with AI (a huge library available on CapCut), it is weird, unexpected while simultaneously being relatable. Because, what’s a car ride without some of your favorite music playing?
It’s simple, yet effective leveraging a personable tone of voice. The text tells you all that you need to know and tells you twice by reading out what you can see on the screen – from the summer-appropriate promo code offer to visuals of a unique POV, the ad serves its purpose of hooking the audience.
