- Step 2: TikTok will add a default header image and product modules.

- Step 3: Click Publish now to go live.

Option 2: Customize your shop
This allows you to fully control the look and feel of your shop, which products are shown, and how sections are arranged.- Step 1: Enter the shop editor.

If you're a verified seller, you'll have the option to add a header with your logo, brand name, or a high-quality image to showcase your brand. Here's how to upload and customize your header:

Create your own Product Collections
When creating a new collection, start by entering a collection name to help customers understand what the collection is about and encourage them to explore the product list. We also recommend adding a theme-related image to increase click-through rates. Finally, select the products that fit your collection—once done, your collection is ready to go.


Why Use Product Collections?
Merchandising themed collections helps solve the problem of store clutter and provides a smoother exploration experience for shoppers. Key benefits include:- Boosted Conversion: Effectively improves CTR, CVR, AOV, and GMV compared to sharing single products.
- Multi-Channel Reach: Sync your collections across your Shop Page and Customer Chat
- Data-Driven Insights: Use the analytics dashboard to track exactly which collections are driving sales and which need a refresh.
Synchronizing Your Collections
Once created, you can deploy your collections across multiple private domain channels:- Shop Decoration: Drag and drop your collection directly into your store's homepage editor.
- Customer Chat: Share entire collections during pre-sales consultations to help customers discover more products.



How to Create a Product Collection
You can manage and create collections by navigating to Seller Center > Marketing > Shop Design > Product Collections.Step 1: Choose Your Creation Method
There are two ways to build your collection:- Template Creation: Choose from "Smart Templates" or "Rule Templates" (e.g., New Arrivals, Popular Products, Low Price). The system will automatically suggest titles and products based on your shop's performance.
- Manual Creation: Build your list from scratch by selecting individual products and entering your own titles and descriptions.
Step 2: Customize Branding and Selling Details
Add visual and textual elements to guide your customers:- Branding: Upload a high-quality cover image and add a description that explains the value of the collection.
- Selling: Curate your product list. For high-SKU industries like Fashion, focus on seasonal themes or inventory turnover.
Step 3: Save and Preview
Before publishing, use the Effect Preview to see how the collection will appear as a cover or on the Product List Page (PLP).Managing and Tracking Performance
The Collection List provides a comprehensive overview of your existing merchandising sets.- Monitor Success: Track key metrics for each collection, including Exposed Users (UV), Click Count, Number of Purchasers, and GMV.
- Operational Safety: If you try to delete a collection currently referenced on your Shop Page or in a CRM plan, the system will provide a reminder. You must take the component offline or stop the plan before the collection can be permanently removed to protect the consumer experience.
Best Practices
- Focus on High-SKU Themes: Use collections for scenario bundling (e.g., "Sportswear") or clearance events.
- Update Regularly: Refresh your "New Arrivals" or "Best-Selling" series to keep your storefront dynamic.
- Clear CTA: Use catchy titles and descriptions to guide customers to the products they need faster.
