In this article

TikTok is a social network that attracts over 50 million active users daily. While it started as a platform for short funny videos, it's now a great way for businesses to connect with potential customers. With its vast user base and engaging content, it's a valuable resource for streamlining your lead management process, saving time, and enhancing productivity.

In this article, you will learn how you can move leads from TikTok's Ads Manager to different apps with Albato, so you can automate your lead generation and management with ease.

What is TikTok lead generation

TikTok Lead Generation is a feature within TikTok's Ads Manager that allows businesses to collect contact information from potential customers directly through their TikTok ads. This marketing automation feature simplifies the process of gathering leads by providing a pre-filled form that users can submit with just a few taps.

In short, it’s an effective way to capture high-quality leads without disrupting the user experience.
