JOB OVERVIEW

Apply Here: ----------

The Creator Loop is a TikTok Shop agency and mentorship business. We help creators learn how to make videos promoting products for affiliate commissions.

We’re hiring a full-time Product Researcher & TAP Manager to find strong product opportunities, manage brand partnerships, and work closely with our Customer Success Manager (CSM) to recommend products to students.

Your main responsibility is to maintain an updated bank of products our students can promote. We want to hand each new student three carefully selected products and provide additional recommendations when needed.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN PRODUCTS

Ad spend and brand funding are our number one priority. We want to identify brands investing in TikTok Shop advertising, particularly through GMV Max, whose products have relatively little competing creator content.

Strong opportunities include established Amazon or DTC brands that are new to TikTok Shop, lesser-known brands with meaningful advertising support, and new or seasonal products from existing brands.

Products should solve a clear problem and be easy for a beginner to demonstrate on camera.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

• Research products daily using TikTok Shop, mobile product analytics, our internal software, Amazon, brand websites, and existing brand relationships.

• Investigate advertising support and funding. Confirm which specific products brands are promoting and clearly distinguish verified information from assumptions.

• Manage existing TAP campaigns in TikTok Shop Partner Center, including product details, commission links, sample allocations, and campaign dates.

• Communicate with existing brands and reach out to new brands about advertising support, upcoming launches, samples, and partnership opportunities.

• Keep our existing product database accurate, organized, and updated. You will submit product recommendations for approval initially.

• Coordinate samples when available and work with the CSM on purchase options when samples are unavailable.

• Prepare tailored product recommendations and simple filming ideas for the CSM to deliver to students.

• Track feedback and results with the CSM, refresh recommendations, and flag changes to inventory, commissions, or campaigns.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Hands-on experience researching products for TikTok Shop or working in TikTok Shop affiliate operations.

• A practical understanding of GMV Max and how brand advertising can support affiliate content.

• Strong research judgment: you can explain why a specific product is an opportunity beyond “it is trending.”

• Comfort using TikTok’s mobile app and product analytics alongside spreadsheets or product management systems.

• Clear written English and confidence communicating professionally with brands and our internal team.

• Strong organization and follow-through across product research, links, samples, and campaign deadlines.

• Ability to work independently and learn our product selection standards through feedback.

Experience with TikTok Shop Partner Center, TAP campaigns, brand outreach, or affiliate management is a strong plus.

You will work directly with our CSM. This role focuses on product research and brand operations.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Our CSM has a dependable supply of approved products to recommend. We understand which brands and products have advertising support. Campaign links and product details stay current, sample requests are followed through, and student feedback improves future recommendations.

HOW TO APPLY

Use the subject line “Creator Loop Product Research” and include:

1. A short overview of your TikTok Shop experience, including any Partner Center, TAP, GMV Max, or brand management work.

2. An example of a product you researched and why you considered it a good opportunity. Explain what evidence you had about advertising support.

3. Your approach to finding established brands that are new to TikTok Shop or funded products with limited creator content.

4. The tools you have used and your availability for a full-time role.

Shortlisted applicants may be invited to complete a paid practical research assignment using example products or partner stores.
