I Tried TikTok Dropshipping

I've seen all these people making money promoting products from the TikTok shop, so I decided to give it a try. If you don’t know how this works, here’s a breakdown: You buy some products from the TikTok Marketplace, create videos about those products, and when someone clicks the link and buys the product from your video, you earn an affiliate commission.

Here are the products I decided to try and sell:

  1. Stuffed Animal Seal: Not entirely sure how I'm going to market this one, but we'll make around $ 3 per sale.
  2. Indoor Fire Pit: Kind of like a candle, but cooler. We'll make $ 6 per sale.
  3. Cool Kitchen Knife: Unique design; our profit is $ 6 per sale.
  4. Mini Label Maker: A problem-solving product with a commission of almost $ 4 per sale.
  5. 200x Microscope Lens for Phones: This one is more expensive and has viral potential. Commission is $ 5 per sale.

When the products arrived, on the first day, I did some unboxing videos. I posted them, and to my surprise, the kitchen knife video got 20,000 views, generating $ 167 in sales and $ 24 in commission for me. Stick around to see how much more we can make with this.
