▶ Play ClipThis video provides a step-by-step blueprint for starting TikTok Shop affiliate marketing, from meeting requirements to creating your first shoppable video. The creator demonstrates how to find winning products, use tools like Shop Shark, and scale your efforts without handling inventory or customer service.
An affiliate promotes products from TikTok Shop and earns a commission on sales. No inventory, shipping, or customer service is required.
New affiliates report $100 to $1,000 in their first few months, scaling with consistency.
Must be 18+, based in the US, and have 1,000 followers for the pilot program or 5,000 for the full program.
The pilot program allows up to 3 shoppable lives and 5 shoppable videos per week, with products from shops rated 95% or higher. It's a training ground, not a punishment.
Complete three tasks: post 6 shoppable videos (8+ seconds), host a 5-minute live stream, and generate 10 orders. Graduation is automatic after 30 days or upon reaching 5,000 followers.
Niche down and create faceless educational content. Warm up your account by engaging in your niche before posting. Use TikTok Ads Manager (not Promote) to accelerate growth.
Go to TikTok Studio > Monetization > TikTok Shop for Creator. Click join, add a few products to your showcase, and start promoting.
Use the product marketplace in TikTok Shop to find products. Check ratings, sales data, and commission rates. Look for products with over 5% commission.
Shop Shark provides analytics on popular videos and products, including commission rates, order growth, and viral index. Filter by niche to find trending products.
Choose a product relevant to your niche. Example: a portable fan with 10% commission, $20 price point, and good order growth. Consider multi-unit purchases for higher earnings.
Recreate a winning video structure: strong hook (first 3 seconds), show features visually, and use a teleprompter app like Blink. Edit in CapCut for fast pacing.
Upload video, write description with relevant hashtags, add product link, and include a sense of urgency text like 'Almost sold out'. Mark as sponsored.
Revenue minus refunds multiplied by commission rate. Commissions are confirmed after the return window closes (typically 15 days). Rate drops are protected for 30 days.
The creator got their first sale on the same day. Scale by replicating successful video styles, finding more products in the same niche, and opening multiple accounts.
Featuring Exposure Plus products with quality content can get extra views from TikTok. Check for the Exposure Plus icon in the product marketplace.
TikTok Shop affiliate marketing is a low-barrier way to make money online by promoting products without handling inventory or customer service. Success comes from consistent posting, using analytics tools like Shop Shark, and replicating winning video formats.

37:35[00:01] sale on the same day that I started. And in this video, I'm going to show you exactly how I did it step-by-step. We'll start by getting into the TikTok Shop how to find products that are already selling, which ones are actually worth
[00:15] promoting, and how to create your first video so you can start testing yourself. This is not a post one video and get rich thing, but if you want a simple, beginner-friendly way to make money promoting products without having to buy
[00:28] any inventory, without having to ship any orders, or building a store, TikTok places to start right now. And by the end of this video, you'll have the exact blueprint that's making me money from day one. So, let's start with what
[00:42] exactly is TikTok Shop Affiliate, and how much can you actually make from it? A TikTok Shop Affiliate is someone who promotes products that are sold on the product that's linked to your video and makes a purchase, you get a
[00:54] commission for referring. It's really as simple as that. And the best part is that there's no inventory, there's no shipping, and my absolute favorite, there is no customer service. All of it is handled by the TikTok Shop seller,
[01:08] realistically speaking, how much can you make? This is really going to vary, but new affiliates have been reporting anywhere from $100 to about $1,000 in their first few months, and it scales with consistency. So, keep posting and
[01:21] keep improving. What are the requirements? Well, to start, you need to be 18 or older, and you need to be based in the US. And then, you also need to have 1,000 followers to enter the pilot program, and then 5,000 to
[01:33] graduate to the full TikTok Shop Creator program. Don't let that scare you off, because I'm going to give you a few different ways to get to 1,000 followers actually a lot easier than you think. Everyone on YouTube is saying, "Don't go
[01:47] for the pilot program. It's a waste of time. It's too restricting." Screw that, go for it. You're wasting time and leaving money on the table by not doing Look, it's really not that bad. Here's what it restricts you to. You can only
[02:00] post up to three shoppable lives per week and five shoppable videos. And two, you're limited to promoting products from shops that have a rating of 95% or why promote stuff from badly rated stores? This is essentially a trial
[02:16] period for you as a creator. And here's the thing. actually tells you exactly what you need to do to graduate out of the pilot program early. There are three tasks and completing all three gets you fully out
[02:31] of the pilot program even if you haven't hit 5,000 followers yet. Task one, post at least six shoppable videos that are at least eight seconds or longer. You're probably already planning to post more than that anyway. And task two, host one
[02:44] live stream for at least five minutes featuring a product. Five minutes. It's going to be interactions and it's going to go by pretty quickly. And task three, generate 10 orders from your content. As you're posting videos and
[02:58] start to add up faster than you think, especially if you're promoting high-quality products, which the 95% shop rating requirements is already pretty much pushing you towards.
[03:10] Honestly, waiting for 5,000 followers to apply is the wrong move. While you're sitting by waiting to hit that number, you could already be content library, learning what products convert, and getting comfortable on
[03:24] pushing in the pilot program can continue to perform and collect views, followers, and sales as time passes. I have videos that are 1 to 2 years old that are still performing to this day. It's not a punishment as most people see
[03:37] it. It's a training ground. And TikTok says that flat out. It's training you to know what works and what doesn't. And the restrictions that people are complaining about, three lives and five videos a week is honestly
[03:51] someone that's just starting out. And once you hit those three tasks and you've been in the program for at least 30 days, graduation is automatic. No application, no waiting. On day 31, you're automatically moved up to the
[04:05] standard affiliate with no posting limits and access to even more products and brand collaborations. Or if you just simply hit 5,000 followers before that, then you'll also be automatically graduated. Now, how do we get to 5K or
[04:19] better yet, just 1K to start? So let me say this right from the beginning. You need to niche down. Random content will not work. Niche down, find something that you know well, and start making videos around
[04:31] easiest way for this is faceless educational content. You don't need to show your face, you don't need a fancy setup, and it works across literally any screen recordings, voice-overs, text on screen, simple stuff. Stuff, you know,
[04:46] kind of like this. It's the lowest barrier to entry and one of the fastest ways to build an audience from zero. But, before you start posting, warm your account up first. Watch a few videos in your niche, engage with content, leave
[05:00] comments, spend a few days doing that before you ever actually post your first video. TikTok needs to know who you are and what you're about before it starts pushing your content to the right people. Once you're warmed up, post a
[05:14] few videos organically. Get a feel for it. And if you want to accelerate, you can run TikTok ads to boost views and engagement on your best performing content. It's not required, but it can definitely speed things up pretty
[05:27] significantly if you want to hit that 1K faster or even the 5K. Don't get this twisted. I'm not saying go to TikTok promote. That flat out does not work. I've wasted money just boosting videos with absolutely no results. When I say
[05:41] run ads, I mean through TikTok Ads Manager. It's much more specific and Promote, you know, that feature that you get tons of ads all of the time on TikTok that says, "Promote this video.
[05:54] This video can reach X amount of viewers in a day." It does not work well because you can't specify your audience. The settings that are there are super basic and they just don't work. Stick to TikTok Ads Manager. Now, before
[06:07] we do continue, I am going to have a cheat sheet that's available to you with video, along with a couple of different checklists of different links that you to get started. If you want access to that, just go ahead and drop a comment
[06:20] down below with the hashtag Shop Shark. And let me know what your takeaway is the subscribe button and make sure you like this video so you don't miss out on any future videos that have to do on how you can start becoming a TikTok Shop
[06:33] want to mention that I personally don't recommend, buying an account is also an again, I'm going to be straight up with you. The risk of getting banned is very real. So, proceed with serious caution on that one. Again, I'm personally not
[06:50] know that it does exist. Now that we know how to get in, let's apply to the pilot program. The first thing that we need to do is go to our TikTok profile we're going to click on TikTok Studio and scroll down to this part right here
[07:05] at monetization. And you'll see TikTok Shop for Creator. Now, it's very important to make sure that it's for Creator. There's another option that's TikTok Shop for Seller and we don't want that one. That's for
[07:19] people selling on TikTok Shop. We're promoting, not selling. So, let's click on join, join now, and get a bit of information on TikTok Shop, how to earn money, and getting samples,
[07:32] it's pretty cool. Okay, so now we're going to click on let's get started and Just a few products to add to your showcase, which by the way, the showcase is where your promoted products live and everyone has access to. And then we can
[07:47] really just skip these because we want to stick to our niche. Now, the cool thing here is that besides just browsing the marketplace, which honestly can be very cluttered and hard to navigate, you can now search by image. So, you just
[08:00] use an image of a product and TikTok Shop will show you a few products that are similar to it. Now, if we continue, we'll see some starter picks and some stuff that TikTok recommends. Now, if we go back, we'll see our
[08:12] creator dashboard now. Here, we can join campaigns to help us this, you can just click on view details to see what there's available at the these are the ones that are available to me at the time of this recording. You
[08:26] can click on view on any of these, see what they require, and join. Then, back to our dash. Now, we can see here how many sales we've made today. Of uploaded yet. How many products have sold and how much commission we've made
[08:40] from the totals amount of sales. You also have a quick guide that TikTok first sale. And then the TikTok Shop Toolkit, where need to see or you need to learn about. Such as the product marketplace to see
[08:55] the option to manage your showcase, check out your earnings, manage the samples that you've requested. You can also see any collab invites from to collaborate, promotion options and a lot more. Okay,
[09:09] so now that we're signed up and ready to start posting, let's find the product that we want to offer. Now, we have a few different options for this. We can go through TikTok Shop and look for products in our niche by simply going to
[09:21] marketplace. And now, the second option, which is a lot more powerful and really by using an external tool that still runs through TikTok Shop Analytics. Shop
[09:33] signed up and ready to start posting, let's find a product that we want to something that's relevant to what we're going to be doing. Now, there are going show you, and the first one is going to be by going through the product
[09:46] marketplace. So, let's go ahead and go back to our dashboard, and then under the TikTok Shop Toolkit, let's click on the product marketplace. and we can see all of the different
[09:59] products that are available to us. So, we can see, let's take for example this printer right here. It's a Bluetooth thermal tattoo stencil printer. It's got thermal tattoo stencil printer. It's got 4.7 stars, 1.1 thousand of sold, and it
[10:11] has a refundable sample. What that means is simply that you can request a sample from this seller, and you're not going to get it for free, at least not yet. What's going to happen is you're going to pay for the sample, and then once you
[10:24] reach, let's say, two or three uh sales, then the seller is going to give you the sample, and they're going to give you your commissions. Now, if we click into it, we can go ahead and scroll down a little bit. Let's see. So, here we
[10:37] have a bit more information, 4.8 stars, like we said earlier, 134 reviews, and 1,120 have been sold. They have free returns, down a little bit, and we just let go of the screen, we can see that you can earn
[10:50] $1.17 per sale. So, this doesn't really have a huge earning potential per sale, but if you can sell multiples of these, then it really does start to add up. really fast. And here we can see what I told you
[11:04] earlier, it has the promotion info. This is all the information for us as an affiliate, and it has the order refundable sample. So, it says generate one sale for a refund. So, if you make at least one sale for this printer, then
[11:17] scroll down a little bit, we can see a different product trends. In the last 7 days, 94 of these have been ordered. There has been a 3.5 CTR, which is a click-through rate,
[11:32] promoting it. Here, it's 28, and at the cart, 503. So, a lot of people have been adding it to their carts, but it doesn't look like too many have been actually ordering it. So, 503 added to cart, and 94 people have actually ordered it.
[11:46] And if we do want to go ahead and add this product to our showcase, and we click on the add to showcase button here. go ahead and click on create now, which will pretty much give us a few different
[11:59] options to automatically post some content to uh TikTok Shop that we automatically added to our product card. So, you know when somebody posts a video product on the bottom left? That's what
[12:13] automatically straight from this product page. So, we have the camera, we can we can take a video right now on the product if we have something like it, or We can also create videos with AI, which is actually pretty interesting, and I'm
[12:27] little bit later that's going to allow you to scale your TikTok affiliate business pretty effortlessly. So, make sure you stick around. And then after that, you have the tips to promote, and you have the lives. So, you can go live.
[12:39] and let's go ahead, and we can simply add this product to our showcase if we to our showcase. So, let's just go ahead and do that so we can see how that goes. promotion restriction. So, we're currently unable to promote
[12:52] this product due to the participation in the creator pilot program, and it seems to be because of the shop rating. So, if we look over here on the about this shop, we can see that the positive feedback is actually 86%. Remember, we
[13:04] are limited to stores that have 95% or higher. This one's going to be a no-go, But, you know what? Let me actually show you a different way of doing this that's quicker, and really just a lot more streamlined. And for this, what we're
[13:17] using this tool right here called Shop Shark. Now, Shop Shark is a tool that is based off of TikTok Shop analytics, and it really does make starting off as a TikTok Shop affiliate a lot easier. Now, if you do want to follow along with
[13:30] then make sure you check out the link down in the description below. This link it's also going to be in the cheat sheet for you. So, the moment that you land onto the page, you're going to be greeted with the popular video section.
[13:43] that are popular today. So, all these videos have been popping off literally today, and we also have an option for the last 7 days, the last 30 days, and how I told you earlier that we need to niche down? Well, this is going to be
[13:58] the quickest way to find products in our niche. So, if we click on the categories niches of products that are being offered on TikTok Shop. And we can also see how much those products have brought in. We can see how
[14:12] commission has pretty much been brought in, and we can even search for different really fast, and let's check out these different video cards. So, what this is different video cards. So, what this is is simply the top performing videos with
[14:25] attached products from TikTok Shop in the last 7 days in this case. So, these two seem to be pretty similar. They're two different brands, but same type of product. They both seem to be wigs. So, let's check out the first one over here.
[14:38] then this is the video card. Here we have a lot of information on this ad. So, this video was posted by Houston Hair Stylist. It does have a product be the wig. If we click on see on TikTok, it's going to take us to the
[14:52] actual video. But unfortunately, because we are on the desktop version, we can't going to see it down here. Now, for this, I do have an extension, which is click on it, which is pretty much a mobile view version on your desktop, and
[15:06] here. Another thing that you can do, which I actually find to do to be a lot easier, is just take the link and send it to yourself, and then open up that Now, why are we doing that? I'll show
[15:19] to the analytics. And here we can see whether or not this product is worth our time or not. It's if it's worth us promoting it. I'm not a big fan of very low commissions. Anything that's maybe less than 5%, I'm not going to go for
[15:33] something that's like a thousand dollars, can get you a decent commission off of, you know, just 1%, most products that are 100 bucks if that, it's not going to be It's It's really not going to be worth it. The
[15:47] video, posting it, and consistently making content, in my personal opinion, is not going to be worth how much you're going to be making with just a simple 1% there's tons of other sellers on TikTok
[16:00] Shop that are giving you way more than that, between 5, 6, to even 20% itself, though, doing pretty good. 276,000 views. In the last week, it this video actually kind of just went up up up and then uh got stale. It has a
[16:15] good amount of likes, 24,000, 218 shares, and 39 comments. Here we can see so like the views, the likes, the shares. We can see it changes over. We can see how fast it rises in the views and how
[16:29] it kind of stabilized out. Then if we scroll down, we have the actual product information. So, this is very valuable because here we have the product that's it's going to take us to the product card on the product section of Shop
[16:43] second, but let's go back. Besides that, we do have a few more videos with that you a bit of inspiration on how to structure your own videos. It gives you information on what videos are winning, what video structures are working, and
[16:57] what people are liking. And we also have a few more videos from the same creator and similar products, not the same products, but similar. Now, this right here shows you how much this product has brought in with this creator in
[17:10] particular. So, this creator only has about 15.3 thousand followers, about 15.3 thousand followers, and she's brought in 880,000 commission, she's only made 8.8 uh thousand dollars. Don't get me wrong,
[17:24] $8.8 thousand dollars from May 12th, which has actually just been a couple insane, and that really shows you the power and how lucrative being a TikTok Shop Affiliate can be. But if this had just been 2%, this would
[17:38] be $16,000. Can't even start to imagine 5 or 10%. So again, just always stick to over 5%. Okay, so now let's switch over and let's run over to the products tab, because now instead of looking for popular
[17:51] can see what products are popping off instead. Here we have a few different ones that we saw under videos, except these actually have a bit to do more with sales. So trust me, as you're thinking, how do I become a TikTok Shop
[18:05] Affiliate? How do I do it successfully? How do I really find products that are actually making money and have a good commission rate? This page right here, Checking out the product category, again, we can filter by different
[18:17] categories. We can also filter by product status, so you can see what's available and and what's discontinued. You can see the total number of units sold, so you can see how many units have been sold overall for that product, how
[18:30] so the total GMV. You can see how many sales have been in the last seven days and how much money the products have brought in in the last seven days. Then if we look through here, we have the seven days, 30 days, and 60 days, and
[18:43] this right here is the most important part. So we have the units sold. We have the order growth. This is extremely important, because this tells you the rise and if it's starting if it's starting to trend. We also have the GMV
[18:56] over here, which is actually the total amount of sales in the last seven days, sold for the product, the overall amount of revenue and sales that this product creators, across all time or since it
[19:10] here we see we have some pretty good ones, 8%, 30%, 14%, and the viral index. Now, what the viral index is is simply a score that Shop Shark gives these products based on all of the different interactions on the videos that have
[19:26] these products attached to them. Things like likes, shares, view count, how long clicked on the products, all of that stuff is taken into consideration for this viral index. Being zero the lowest, there's not too much interest in it, and
[19:39] 100 being the highest. So, taking into consideration the viral index along with the order growth and the total number of units sold, you can kind of start to estimate which one of these products could be on the rise or which ones could
[19:51] trending anymore. So, let's just look and let's see if there's something in the niche that I want to do. So, I accounts and I try to find products that I can promote across all of them. So, I
[20:04] can find a product that I can find a marketing angle for one of my TikTok shops and then a different marketing angle for another one based on, you know, the niche of a TikTok. Now, let's just look at a few of the different ones
[20:17] growth. This looks to be pretty good. 509% in order growth. We have 77,000 days. 2.3 in total. Let's go ahead and scroll
[20:29] we can find. Okay, so after doing a bit of digging, I found this product over here. This is a pretty cool fan that apparently the sensor of it gets really cold. Now, this has a few different uh use cases that I could think of. One
[20:42] that's perfect for the summer, which is actually right now, and it's also that I have. So, I think this might be the one that I'm going to go for. Here we can see that it has, let's see, it cost $20.
[20:55] It's not the most viral one right now, but it definitely works for what I'm thing that you really need to take into consideration. You don't always need to go for the top performing products. You can always also opt in for products that
[21:09] you know that can be practical and very relevant in what in um the types of your account is based on. We can see here that it is number 240, it's number 12. This might not be the flashiest number, but it works. It has a viral
[21:23] index of nine. It has a pretty nice popularity score. Has a good amount that popularity score. Has a good amount that have been sold, 8.82 thousand, 1.6 million in total revenue brought in, 864 affiliates, and 3,493 videos currently
[21:38] promoting this product. And one of my favorite things right here is the 10% So, even though it is a fairly cheap product, and we're not going to be making loads of commission, 10% is still good because this is a product that
[21:51] So, in just a second, I'm going to show you the ad that I'm going to be recreating because it's 100% relevant. I was just at Universal Studios a few months ago, and it was extremely hot, and this product, perfect. And one thing
[22:05] that you need also think about is when you promote this product like that, multiples because most people aren't going to theme parks like that by family. So, if it's mom, dad, and two kids, most likely they're going to buy
[22:19] one for each person. So, that $2 commission easily turns into 10. Now, if uh we can see the trending. So, it was a little bit sporadic, but it does look rise. So, it does look like it is going back up. Again, summer's right around
[22:33] like this. We're going to be catching this right as the hype is rising. Now, a lot of different videos that we can take inspiration from. But, out of all the ones that I saw on here, I have to say that probably the best one has to be
[22:48] this one. So, this is the one that we're going to recreate. We're not going to be like that because we're not going to be at Disney or anything, but we're going I'm actually going to make this video for you. So, let's see what she's doing
[23:01] here. There's no reason to buy a fan for this much. It sprays water and has a be able to keep you cool when they sell this one. It has a coin feature built right in. It literally has condensation on the fan. It goes all the way to max
[23:15] speed of 199. It actually keeps me cool throughout the theme park day, so my trip is not ruined by the heat. I'm going to have this one linked for you stock by the time you see this video though because they've been selling out
[23:27] incredibly quickly cuz everybody's buying them for their trip. All she did was talk for what, like 27 seconds? Now, the hard part here is seconds without stopping or stuttering, but we're going to go ahead and recreate
[23:40] and attach the product to it. But, of course, first we have to order the check this out. This creator has made $13,000. She has brought in $2.7 million in sales to the company, and in terms of views,
[23:54] 11.3 million views. That's absolutely insane. Let's go to the here. So, what we're going to do from here in order to actually obtain this going to be this. We're going to go ahead and click on see on TikTok. It's
[24:09] going to take us over here. We're going to go ahead and take that link. But, before we do that, you see over here how many videos she has posting the same exact thing over and over? A few different variations, but this is what
[24:23] it takes. You need to keep posting. You need to be consistent. That's why people make multiple videos of the same exact product with really the same exact link, and let's go ahead and send it to ourselves. So, now I have the video
[24:37] pulled up on my phone. We're going to click down here where it says shop. So, so once we land on the product card over here, I'm going to go ahead and take that. Check out the promotion info. So, here we can see that we can earn about
[24:49] $1.99 per sale. Again, 10% commission on a $20 product or $19.99 product. And we have all of the information here that we also saw on Shopshark. What we can do from here is we can request a sample. We can do the order refund sample. Now
[25:03] one shows three sales to get a refundable sample, whereas the first one that we saw was just one sale. And some others don't require any sales. So this is really going to vary depending on the merchant. So what we're going to do is
[25:16] we can either go ahead and click on order refundable sample, or we can add to showcase. Because if we order a refundable sample, TikTok Shop works, but it is going to take a little bit longer. So what I'm going to do is I'm
[25:30] Amazon and get it tomorrow. Now that we added it to our showcase, we can actually start promoting this product. So let's go ahead and swipe down, and let's go to our profile over here, and let's click on showcase. Once we click
[25:44] on showcase, we can see it over here under creator's choice, along with again promoted. Now to find this product on Amazon, super easy. We can either do a product on Shopshark, which we have it over here, and we can go ahead and right
[25:59] click, we can do a search with Google Lens. We're going to see everything over Amazon. Go ahead and click on that. And well, on here it's actually a little bit more expensive. It's $23.99. Would you look at that? So if you don't want to
[26:11] and request a sample from TikTok Shop and just wait a few days. Or if you're like me and you really don't like waiting, then let's just go ahead and disclaimer, for the remainder of this video, I am going to be using my bigger
[26:25] account, the one that has already graduated from the pilot program, so of the creator program or the TikTok Shop affiliate program. And also one looking for different products, is you're going to find a lot of products
[26:38] that you like that the seller's rating might not be at the 95%. This will happen a few times. It'll probably be just under, it'll be in the high 80s. So able to promote those products. But there is a bit of a workaround. A lot of
[26:51] finding are being sold by multiple different sellers. So, just check other pretty much essentially the same thing, just colors, there's a variations. You're going to find tons of different ones on
[27:06] different ones and just make sure you check out the seller ratings. All right, so it's been about 2 days and we now have the product from Amazon. This is the exact same one that we found on TikTok Shop.
[27:25] actually works. Now, how are we going to make our video based on the one that we saw earlier relevant to So, I'm thinking that I'm going to target parents niche, you know, because
[27:38] kids, they were playing in the pool and I was dying of heat. Like I literally put the fan, like the big fan inside my shirt because of how hot it was. So, for know, creativeness is not always all there, we're going to go ahead and take
[27:53] We're going to go ahead and take the link. We're going to run over to Claude out this video and make me a version for what I want to do. So, I'm making a that gets cool in the middle to blow cold air. I have some footage of my kids
[28:09] outside. I'm going to use that as the intro and then recite the script that off of scripts depending on what I'm doing, especially if it's a lot that um you know, I have to talk. So, for me it works. For you it might not. For you it
[28:24] entire thing and just, you know, just go for it. Whatever works for you. But just make sure that you take inspiration from something that's actually working. Always make sure that you have a few things in your video. One, a strong
[28:37] hook. You need to make sure that you hook your audience or your viewer within the first 3 seconds. And a few different ways to do that could be either one, high energy starting off, something, you know, just starting off with a lot of
[28:49] Blah, blah, blah." Another thing is going to be starting like, "Oh my god, I was at the theme park the other day and it was so freaking hot. I was dying. I'm never going back." Something to essentially
[29:02] shock the viewer. Shocking also works very well. Spinning things in a negative fashion also works very well. So, something like, "Do not buy this right here. Trust me, what it's going to end up doing is it's just going to make it
[29:15] way too cold outside even on the hottest days." You see how you kind of spin a negative into a a positive? They really hook the viewer. Another thing is visual auditory hooks. So, things that you're essentially talking about. One very
[29:28] strong visual hook that I've seen a lot is this one right here. And it's And it makes sense. Just check it out. >> Portable AC it blows out furiously powerful airflow and I'm going to prove to you why it feels so cooling.
[29:41] doing any of that. All it's doing is just some dry ice. All right, so really going to use that as the intro and then recite the script that you gave me based on how this video does it, which is the video that I'm linking to from that
[29:55] appropriately because this person is at Disney and we're doing somewhat of a different angle for parents while their kids play. Okay, so it can't necessarily I guess read the video from Tik Tok. It could do it off of YouTube because
[30:10] YouTube actually has transcripts, but Tik Tok does not unfortunately. But what it did do is it gave us a improvised script, which actually kind of works. out the script that she has. I'm going to compare it to this one and I'm going
[30:22] after that let's just go ahead and get to recording. There's absolutely no that just blow hot air around, even the big ones like this one. They just don't work outside. While my kids are out here playing all
[30:36] day having the times of their lives, I'm out here dying of the heat. But this fan right here, it has a built-in cooling function right in the middle. Like, actually cool. It's not just a gimmick, and it actually
[30:50] lowers the temperature of the air it's blowing. Look at that condensation right there. Look at that. You can take it off. You can feel it. Honestly, this keeps me super cool the whole time that my kids are playing in the pool. So, our
[31:02] heat anymore. Well, mine is now, at least. hopefully it's still in stock by the time that you see this, because parents have been snatching these up like crazy just in time for the summer.
[31:16] Look, don't say I didn't warn you, because Now, for those of you wondering, that little teleprompter app I was using when Blink. I've been using it for quite a few years, and it's a really good app. I
[31:29] ever wanted to work on a teleprompter or learn how to read from a teleprompter, it's very easy to use, and I highly recommend it. So, what I did is I took and uploaded it to my drive, and now I have it imported into CapCut. Now,
[31:44] CapCut, I do have the PC version. I find it a lot easier. It's a lot faster for this on your phone. CapCut does have the free mobile version, and they also have the free web version, and the free PC version. Now, I'm not going to bore you
[31:58] make it super straightforward like the other creator had done. It's just going couple clips. And really, what I'm going to do is I'm I'm going to do this. Just didn't really work. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and skip.
[32:12] let's make it start even faster. Let's just do everything quick. I don't want have this as quick and as fast-paced as possible. Look outside. While my kids are out here playing all day, having the times of their lives, I'm out here dying
[32:25] this for just a couple minutes, and I will be right back with the final me talk to you really fast about another option that we have to be able to create videos, but this time in bulk. And that's using an app or service called
[32:40] Create UGC. Create UGC pretty much just gives you the opportunity to be able to create lots of different videos with AI avatars reviewing your product like this >> real relief. >> Now, if you do want to learn more about
[32:52] cheat sheet. I am going to have a link to it down there along with the link to a little bit more about the app itself. And now we're going to open up TikTok. We're going to go ahead and click the little plus button to upload our video.
[33:04] Go ahead and choose the video itself, which is this one right here. Reasons to be buying those cheap fans that just blow hot air around, even the big ones like this. Okay, good. Go ahead and click on next. And now let's go

[34:14] Something that would be good would be something like we saw in the other creators' uh text where it simply showed that it's almost selling out. So, a a sense of urgency. So, let's do almost
[34:27] sense of urgency. So, let's do almost out ice cold You can probably come up with something better if we talk to Claude or try to use GPT. But for now this works, so click on add.
[34:39] sponsored. Go ahead and click on agree to post, and that's pretty much it. Now then this is our product video over here. So let's just go ahead and check All reasons to be buying those cheap fans that just blow hot air around, even

[35:24] court. Well, mine is at least. but hopefully it's still in stock by the time that you see this because parents have been snatching these up like crazy just in time for the summer. Look, don't
[35:38] this is a good one. It's probably not going to be there by the time that you came out really good. Uh let's go ahead and click on the almost sold out so you can just see what it looks like. Here we have the product itself, and
[35:50] want to see the results of this video and some of the other ones that I'm hit that subscribe button and let me know down in the comments below. I need to know like you have interest in this because if you do, I'm going to continue
[36:03] all of the different secrets, tips, and tricks that I know to help you succeed be doing in your videos because it'll just be ultimately a waste of time. So for one, don't promote products that are essentially out of season or
[36:18] essentially out of season or have old trends. So what I mean by this? Don't promote fidget spinners. Clearly fidget spinners are a thing of 2020, right? And I know this is a super old example, but it's probably the biggest
[36:30] example or the best example I can give you. Fidget spinners were all the way up here. They were even higher back in 2020, 2021, 2022. They're like down People that are trying to sell them after that trend was over, they're just
[36:42] wasting time, they're wasting resources, and they could be wasting money. not sell seasonal products that are out of season. I'm not going to be promoting, let's say, a bathing suit when Christmas time is coming around.
[36:55] And I'm not going to be promoting a sweater right before summer starts up market is not going to be there. People are not going to want it. Also, don't just talk about the features, right? So, as you saw in the video, I actually
[37:09] showed the features. I didn't talk about it. I could have just said, right here sitting down, "This fan is great. It blows super cold air, and this part gets Instead, I actually showed you
[37:21] everything. I showed you the condensation. I showed you how fast it features that we can show, but we can keep showing those with more videos. Remember, TikTok Shop is a numbers game. It's really a numbers
[37:35] course, the content does have to be quality. It can't just be quantity, but you always have room to cover different features and different bases that you let's talk about getting paid because this part is extremely important, as we
[37:50] all know, and a lot of people don't fully understand how it works. So, your formula. Revenue minus refunds Revenue minus refunds multiplied by your commission rate. So,
[38:04] video, you'll see an estimated commission pretty much instantly. But that number is not final. The actual commission gets confirmed after the return window closes. You'll typically receive your commission 15 days after
[38:19] expect to see money hit the same week that you make your sale. It does take a little bit to process. Now, a couple of things can delay that. So, for one, if a seller has a longer settlement period, like let's say the
[38:35] delivery plus 31 days, your payout will follow that same timeline. And if there's a dispute, a refund, or a return request that's open that commission won't be paid until it's resolved. Here's something that actually
[38:50] works in your favor. If a seller raises their commission rate, you get that higher rate immediately. But, if they lower it, you're still protected. You keep your original rate
[39:02] for 30 days, and you'll get a notification 2 days before that window closes. So, you won't get blindsided by sudden rate drops. Now, to check your earnings, as we saw earlier, just go to Creator Tools, then TikTok Shop Creator
[39:16] Center, and then Earnings. And that's where you're going to find confirmed commissions, and your full payout history. All right, so check this payout history. All right, so check this out. I just posted that video today, and
[39:29] right here, let's go ahead and check out the affiliate orders. I already got my the affiliate orders. I already got my first sale on that fan. actually start TikTok Shop affiliate
[39:42] marketing. How easy it is to actually scale, as long as you stay consistent and you keep posting. Now, let's talk scaling and growing, because this is where people overcomplicate it. When something works, just do more of it. If
[39:56] converting, make more videos in that same style. Find more products in the same niche using Shop Shark, the way that I just showed you a little bit earlier, and just repeat that process over and over.
[40:08] Once you've got a formula that's working in one niche, you can open a second Just, of course, always remember you know a little bit about that niche and gives you more reach without having to burn out your one account.
[40:23] Keep in mind what works in one niche won't always translate directly. Some niches are more visual, some audiences prefer voiceovers, some want demo style videos. Now as I was checking out the analytics of the video and
[40:37] checking to see how it was performing after I saw that I got my first sale. I interesting. So if we go back to our TikTok studio and then we go to the TikTok shop for creator, we're going to see here that we gained X amount more
[40:50] because we're featuring exposure plus products. Now actually wasn't aware of this but that fan apparently is an exposure plus product and featuring these with good quality content actually incentivizes TikTok to boost your video
[41:04] and click on that really fast. You're going to see other products that have that exposure plus icon under them. So check those out and if you post good quality content those could help you get more more views. Now if we click on the
[41:18] videos button down here and we go to manage we can see the video right here. So it says good quality and it has 3,000 extra views from exposure plus. That's post good quality content. That's really it. TikTok shop affiliate is one of the
[41:34] lowest barrier ways to start making money online right now. There's no product storefront, no customer headaches, no customer service, just want to check out Shop Shark it's going to be linked down in the description
[41:46] below and in the cheat sheet. Make sure you comment the hashtag Shop Shark plus you want to learn more about creators you see which I talked about earlier check out this video right here and if you want an even deeper dive into Shop
