Spent $500 on a 'viral' TikTok ad package and got maybe 3 sales
The agency promised a million views but the traffic was all bots from click farms. Anyone know a legit way to actually reach people on that platform?

See this happen all the time, and it reminds me of buying cheap tools. You pay for a shiny promise but get a broken product that does no real work. The platform is crowded with these services selling empty numbers instead of actual people. In my experience, you have to ignore the big view promises and just talk to one real person at a time in the comments of posts you genuinely like. It's slow and feels small, but that's how you find the real customers who actually want what you're selling.

Reminds me of when my uncle bought a fancy riding lawnmower from a late night TV ad. Looked amazing in the commercial, showed up in a box with half the bolts missing and a motor that sounded like a dying animal. He spent more time trying to fix it than he ever did mowing. The shiny promise is always the trap.
