One of the most important questions that you need to answer is how are you going to fulfill your TikTok shop orders? Are you going to be using existing inventory in another marketplace such as Amazon? Are you going to be connecting directly to your 3PL? Are you going to be routing your orders through Shopify that then get fulfilled either from Amazon or from the 3PL? These are really important questions and will help to determine how best to proceed in your fulfillment setup. One of the things that is really critical is connecting to the right apps to integrate for those fulfillment choices and TikTok has a variety of apps to choose from that have now integrated directly with your fulfillment services. Something to consider as you get started is to come to the app store and to search for those relevant apps. For example, the Shopify app is one of the obviously most popular ways to get connected. You’ll come up here and select Shopify or type in Shopify and select TikTok for Shopify app. That’s an option. If you’re wanting to fulfill via your Amazon inventory, you can search for Amazon here. I recommend Amazon MCF by Webby or AfterShift. Those are all really great options. If you are using a 3PL to connect directly to TikTok shop, you might find out what software solution that 3PL has such as ShipStation. That is a really popular one. But find out what software solution provider that they are using and you might be able to connect with them directly by searching in the app store and selecting the relevant app to help you with fulfillment.
