Allied Architects Launches Support Service for TikTok Shop Operations
Allied Architects Introduces TikTok Shop Support Service
Allied Architects Inc., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, has announced that it will begin offering a support service for the setup and operation of TikTok Shops, anticipated to launch in the summer to autumn of 2025. This service will assist enterprises by providing comprehensive support from account creation and content development to collaborations with creators and planning live broadcasts. The company aims to facilitate smooth utilization of TikTok Shop for e-commerce businesses, offering strategic planning as well as execution support in one package. Additionally, applications for early monitor companies are now being accepted.
What is TikTok Shop? The Dawn of 'Discovery E-commerce'
TikTok Shop represents a next-generation e-commerce feature that allows viewers to purchase products in real-time via short videos and live broadcasts. This innovative purchasing behavior is referred to as 'discovery e-commerce.' Users can enjoy watching videos or live streams while discovering unexpected products, enabling direct purchase from the content. Unlike traditional search-driven e-commerce, it uniquely targets latent customers before their needs become apparent, making it a standout feature.
Key Features of TikTok Shop (Excerpt from TikTok Shop Materials)
- - Short Videos with Cart: Enables instant purchases from linked videos.
- - Live Commerce: Provides an interactive real-time customer service experience, allowing for immediate purchasing.
- - Showcase: Displays a list of products on the brand's profile for immediate purchase.
- - Shop Tab: Lets users discover and buy products from a TikTok marketplace, utilizing TikTok’s recommendation system to suggest items based on user interests.
Background and Market Trends
According to the 'TikTok Socio-Economic Impact Report 2024' released by TikTok Japan, the estimated consumption attributed to TikTok has reached 177.2 billion yen, significantly contributing 474.1 billion yen to Japan's nominal GDP, with over 60 billion yen benefiting small and medium enterprises. These figures highlight TikTok's substantial economic impact across various industries and business sizes, establishing it as an essential platform for marketing.
