How UK's #1 TikTok Affiliate Makes Money

Introduction

As a TikTok affiliate, last month I did £51,000 in sales, which makes me the number one TikTok affiliate in the UK. The benefit of being a TikTok affiliate is that you can sell products on your channel without having to deal with posting, customer service, and returns. All you're doing is sharing products that other people are selling on TikTok and getting a percentage of every sale. The great thing is, you can do all this from home. You get these products for free, and you get paid to promote them. In this article, I'm going to give you a breakdown of how this business model works and how you can start becoming a TikTok affiliate.

Just to give you an example, whenever you're browsing through TikTok, sometimes you'll see people promoting products. For example, you might see a video promoting a game console for £140. The person in the video isn’t the seller; they are an affiliate earning a commission on each sale. Influencers like Wendy G, one of the top influencers in the UK for TikTok affiliate marketing, promote various products from dresses to candy, vitamins, and more.

To qualify to become a TikTok affiliate, you need at least 1,000 followers. Once you reach that, TikTok will invite you to become an affiliate to promote products from other sellers. Many people find reaching 1,000 followers daunting, but it’s not as hard as it seems. Choose a niche you enjoy and are passionate about. For example, I am passionate about tech and electronics, so I create content around that. If you're interested in football, food, clothing, or animals, create videos about these topics.

One common fear among aspiring creators is video editing. Don’t worry; nobody starts perfect. If you look at my earlier videos, you’ll see they were very simple. With each video, focus on getting better one step at a time. The more videos you create, the more practice you get, and the better you become at editing and content creation. YouTube is a fantastic resource to learn these skills. Search for tutorials on how to get more followers, views, or better at video editing.

Once you reach 1,000 followers, you’ll gain access to the TikTok shop, including the product marketplace. TikTok showcases trending products, and you’ll find a variety of items to promote. You can even see how much you’ll earn per sale. For instance, a product selling for £199.49 might yield a commission of £58.50 per sale.

Be selective with the products you promote; your reputation depends on it. Don’t promote low-quality products just for the sake of making money. Ensure that the product scores and seller scores are high, which guarantees good quality products for your audience.

Let’s consider a specific scenario: you're a fitness influencer creating videos about exercises, muscle growth, health, and fitness. You might promote apple cider vinegar gummies that sell for £8.99, earning 90 pence per sale. While 90 pence might seem small, remember the videos you create will stack up, working every day to earn you commissions. Over time, you could earn £10 a day, £50, £100, or even £1,000 a day, as some others do.
