Unparalleled Growth in 2024

In Q4 2024, HONOR recorded a 1.7x performance increase compared to the first three quarters of the year. This achievement secured its place among TikTok Shop’s Top 20 brands in the Phones & Tablets category, ranking #13 overall. The brand’s success is rooted in a strategic blend of product innovation, content creation, and precision advertising, all guided by TikTok Shop’s ACE Indicator System, focusing on Assortment, Content, and Empowerment to measure and optimize seller performance.

By implementing targeted product drops, viral content strategies, and high-impact ad placements, HONOR achieved a 174% growth in gross merchandise value (GMV) in Q4 2024. These results underscore the brand’s ability to translate digital engagement into tangible sales, setting a new standard for tech retail in the fast-evolving social commerce landscape.

Strategic Product Launches Drive Sales

A key driver of HONOR’s success was its well-timed product launches and compelling offers tailored to TikTok Shop’s unique shopping experience. The introduction of the HONOR X7c during the 11.11 Paskong Panalo Sale significantly amplified brand visibility during a peak sales period.

HONOR further strengthened its online presence by rolling out exclusive discounts, including 10% off for the HONOR X9b during regular sales and up to 30% off with TikTok Pay Later. TikTok Pay Later is a credit-based payment method available on TikTok Shop, offering customers a “shop now, pay later” experience. Eligible users can access credit limits of up to PHP 50,000, repayable in up to 12 installments. This feature enhances the shopping experience on TikTok by providing flexible payment options. These incentives boosted sales and positioned HONOR as a top-performing brand within its category.

“We strategically time our product launches to coincide with major sales events, ensuring maximum consumer engagement and higher conversion rates,” said Stephen Cheng, Vice President of HONOR Philippines. “By aligning our releases with peak shopping periods, we create heightened anticipation and provide customers with exclusive deals, making our offerings even more compelling. TikTok Shop provides the perfect platform for us to showcase our innovations, offering customers both quality and value in a seamless shopping experience,” Stephen added.

Optimizing product listings also played a crucial role in HONOR’s growth. By strategically highlighting each device’s unique selling points, the brand drove a 114% increase in Shop Tab GMV and a threefold increase in non-affiliate GMV, proving the effectiveness of its organic and affiliate-driven sales strategies.

Content-Driven Commerce Fuels Engagement

HONOR Philippines has also leveraged the power of content-driven commerce, turning TikTok Shop into a hub for immersive shopping experiences. The brand conducted daily livestreams, averaging 12 hours per day, directly engaging with potential buyers and building real-time connections.

This commitment to live selling paid off significantly, leading to a 400% increase in Live GMV during the 12.12 Paskong Panalo sale compared to regular business days. Quarter-on-quarter, live selling revenue skyrocketed eightfold, demonstrating the growing consumer demand for interactive and engaging shopping experiences.

Beyond livestreams, HONOR amplified its presence by participating in viral challenges and trending short-form content, further boosting customer interaction. One of its most successful sessions even recorded a gross profit margin (GPM) of 17.72, proving that highly engaging content directly translates into stronger sales.

Leveraging TikTok Shop’s Tools for Sustained Growth

Beyond content and product strategy, HONOR Philippines has fully embraced TikTok Shop’s advertising and campaign ecosystem to strengthen its digital commerce leadership. The brand actively joined weekly and monthly platform-wide campaigns, reinforcing its commitment to long-term growth.

HONOR also maximized TikTok Shop’s precision-targeted ad formats, including Product Showcase Ads (PSA), Video Shopping Ads (VSA), and Live Shopping Ads (LSA). This investment in digital advertising resulted in a 4.5x increase in return on ad spend (ROAS) and secured HONOR a spot among the top 11 brands in the Phones & Tablets category during the 12.12 sale.

“Our strategic approach to TikTok Shop’s ad solutions has been instrumental in reaching the right audiences and driving impactful results,” Stephen Cheng, Vice President of HONOR Philippines, added. “By leveraging data insights and optimizing our campaigns, we’ve strengthened our visibility and customer connections, setting the stage for continuous growth.”

Setting the Standard for Digital Retail Excellence

As the e-commerce landscape continues to evolve, HONOR Philippines showcases how brands can successfully blend technology, content, and strategic marketing to thrive in the digital marketplace. Through well-timed product launches, immersive livestreams, and data-driven ad placements, the brand has positioned itself as a leader in the competitive smart device industry.

“HONOR Philippines has truly leveraged TikTok Shop to its full potential, using the platform’s unique tools to connect with local consumers in meaningful ways,” said Franco Aligaen, Marketing Lead at TikTok Shop Philippines. “Their success is a testament to how TikTok Shop empowers local brands, like HONOR, to compete on a global scale by combining innovation with a deep understanding of their audience, whether through live sessions, exclusive promotions, or creative content.”

Beyond its impressive numbers, HONOR’s success underscores the transformative power of digital commerce. As the brand continues to refine its approach and expand its reach, it sets a compelling precedent for how businesses can thrive in the ever-evolving world of online retail.
