How to use Dami for creator outreach comes down to five steps: authorize your store, find creators, build lists and messages, set pacing, and track replies. This tutorial walks through each step so you can automate creator outreach without breaking platform rules.
Why Sellers Automate Creator Outreach With Dami
Creator outreach has a scaling problem. Manual invites work for the first few dozen creators, then the workload multiplies: profile checks, message sends, follow-ups, and records. Dami solves this by connecting your TikTok Shop store through official API authorization and automating the repetitive parts of creator outreach.
This tutorial walks through how to use Dami to automate creator outreach from setup to results, step by step. It is written for sellers who have not used the platform yet and want a clear path through the workflow.
After your first campaign, review the results properly. See our guide on TikTok creator partnership recap to keep improving.
Step 1: Authorize Your TikTok Shop Store
The first step is connecting your store. Dami uses official TikTok API authorization, which means the connection is stable and does not require repeated logins or IP management. In the store settings, choose the TikTok Shop authorization option and complete the flow in the TikTok Seller Center.
After authorization, your store’s creator data, product catalog, and collaboration tools become available inside Dami. If you run multiple stores, authorize each one; Dami supports multi-store management from a single dashboard.
Step 2: Find Creators in the Database
Once the store is connected, move to creator discovery. Dami provides a creator database covering millions of TikTok Shop creators with contact details. Use the filters to narrow by category, market, engagement, and other criteria that match your product.
For a faster start, use competitor mining: find creators who are already selling for products similar to yours. These creators know the category and convert faster than cold contacts.
| Filter | What it does | Best practice |
|---|---|---|
| Category | Restrict to product-relevant niches | Match to your exact product type |
| Market | Target specific countries | Start with your best-performing market |
| Engagement | Filter by content performance | Prefer recently active creators |
| Competitor mining | Find creators selling similar products | Use for high-converting candidates |
Step 3: Build Your Creator List and Messages
Select the creators you want to contact and add them to a creator pool or task list. Then prepare your outreach messages. Dami supports message templates and AI script generation, including localized scripts in Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesian.
Write a base template with slots for the creator’s category and your product hook, then let the system fill in the details per creator. Keep 3-5 template variants so consecutive messages do not read identically.
Step 4: Set Pacing and Run the Automation
In the automation task settings, set your daily volume cap and send window. Start low if your account is new, then raise the cap gradually. The automation works through the list while respecting the pacing you set, which keeps your account inside platform limits.
Launch the task and monitor the first batch. Check that messages are sending cleanly, then let the automation run. The system handles the repetitive sending; your team handles the replies that come back.
Step 5: Track Replies and Follow Up
When creators reply, their records update in the system. Track reply rate by batch, see which templates perform, and follow up on a schedule. Dami also supports mass email outreach with delivery tracking for creators you reach by email.
Use the funnel and contact records to see where creators drop off: no reply, rejected offer, sample pending, content delivered. The tracking turns outreach into a measurable pipeline instead of a black box.
| Stage | What to check | Action if stuck |
|---|---|---|
| Sent | Message delivered | Adjust pacing or template |
| Replied | Reply rate by batch | Improve offer or personalization |
| Negotiating | Conversation status | Assign to team member |
| Delivered | Content received | Track sample and posting |
