When creators are a destination, they own the destiny of their business," said Kit Ulrich, General Manager of LTK's Creator Shopping Platform. "We continue to invest in improving our tech and designing experiences that are seamless, intuitive and get creators credit so they can be as economically successful as possible. This is the first wave of updates this spring that will drive a meaningful difference for shoppers and creators." Introducing the Products Tab for a Better Search Experience A creator's LTK Shop visitors are high-intent shoppers, and many already know exactly what they are looking for. To make the search and discovery process more efficient for shoppers, LTK is introducing an all-new, dedicated section and AI-powered search tool - Products Tab.
LTK is introducing new Link Optimization technology to give shoppers a more seamless experience while helping creators earn more without any extra or necessary work. After testing the shopper journey and paths, LTK enabled new technology for a more efficient, LTK app-to-retailer app click-out process for shoppers and to ensure creators get the credit and commissions for all the sales they drive. In the initial test, Link Optimization unlocked $26.6M in additional creator earnings and now will be rolling out with more retailers. Enabling Richer Content with Video Storytelling Shoppers clearly prefer the richer storytelling and additional context that video provides, with shoppers purchasing 2X more on video posts than non-video posts. Video posts on LTK on average generate 64% more click-outs to purchase than a single image. LTK Creators can now add videos to their Storytelling Posts on their LTK Shop - sharing more compelling content to build more trust with their community and drive higher engagement and earnings. Creators can upload up to 10 one-minute videos to a carousel to capture shoppers' attention and share more in-depth content, tutorials and how-to's on fit, style and more. All of the updates are available globally and are the first of many to come this quarter to provide a more seamless shopping experience for creators and their communities.
