When I first started experimenting with short-form video on TikTok, I treated each creative like a one-off ad: try something, wait for results, then pause or scale. That approach worked for short bursts, but it didn’t help me predict long-term ROI. Over time I shifted to a method I now call stacked short-form creatives — a deliberate, layered approach where multiple short videos interact over...
