ManyChat is Now on TikTok
Limited Availability
To start, it’s important to note that ManyChat for TikTok is currently not available in Bulgaria, the European Union, the UK, or the USA.
You might be wondering—why bring this up if you can’t use it yet?
Here’s why:
This announcement gives you a head start to strategize how to incorporate automation into your overall marketing approach. So, when it becomes available in your region, you’ll be ready to hit the ground running.
For now, only business profiles outside the restricted regions can use this integration.
If you’re eager to stay ahead of the competition, let’s explore the benefits and features of this new integration.
Benefits for Your Business
If you’ve been using ManyChat to automate your marketing efforts, you already know how powerful it is for building strong connections with your audience, saving time, and boosting follower engagement.
Now, all those benefits are available on TikTok as well!
But here’s the real game-changer: You can now collect emails and phone numbers directly on TikTok.
If you’ve followed my content before, you’ll know that I always emphasize the importance of building your own audience outside of social media platforms.
A winning strategy is to leverage the traffic you get from social platforms and funnel it into your own channels—like your website and email list.
This not only helps you target future ad campaigns more effectively, but it also allows you to:
Stay connected with your audience for free, anytime, and
Do so legally (hello, GDPR compliance!).
Smart business owners know that email lists are among the most valuable assets a business can have. With ManyChat for TikTok, you’ll have a brand-new opportunity to grow yours.
Features
Triggers
Right now, the automation is activated by key phrases in direct messages (DMs). In other words, when a follower sends a specific word or phrase to your business via DM, it triggers your automation.
Unfortunately, the fan-favorite keyword trigger in comments isn’t available yet. However, ManyChat has promised to add more trigger options in the future. Fingers crossed that by the time ManyChat for TikTok arrives in our region, this feature will be ready!
Converting Existing Automations
ManyChat’s mission has always been to save businesses time. Staying true to that, you’ll be able to easily convert your existing automations into TikTok versions with minimal effort.
Yet another reason to start using ManyChat now! If you need help getting started, feel free to reach out—we’re here for you. 😉
Welcome Messages, Default Replies, and FAQs
Ensure your followers feel welcomed, their questions don’t go unanswered when you’re offline, and their FAQs are handled instantly—all with ManyChat’s automation.
