"Even if you only have 100 fans, you can start making money with this method"!


0.1 The environment: It is difficult to make money, which is a consensus among many people

In the past or two years, making money has become increasingly difficult.

Many people around me are unemployed, those who change jobs are cutting their salaries, and those who do business are losing money.

Internal transactions, layoffs, mortgage pressure...

Wages cannot catch up with inflation:The average salary of fresh graduates in China fell by 12%, but the price of pork rose by 23%.

Side job becomes a need: 63% of office workers are looking for a second income, but the income from a single video from Xiaohongshu/Tiktok is less than 1 yuan.

The question is, what is the way out?

If you're facing these, then you should take a look Tiktok.

0.2 TikTok is a new window of opportunity

TikTok is nothing new.

Behind it isByteDance, is the international version of Douyin.

You can understand it as "Tik Tok in 2018". Short videos have just begun to explode, the content is not yet crammed, and there are still many opportunities.

TikTok now has 1.7 billion monthly active users worldwide, and there are more than 110 million users in the United States alone.

what does that mean?

mean:

  1. a. A video may increase your followers by tens of thousands at any time;

  2. b. You can bring goods if you have traffic, and you can earn US dollars if you have goods;

  3. c. This platform is far more "familiar" and "easy to get started" than we imagined.

Because we have been playing Douyin for many years.

We understand rhythm better than foreigners, edit better, and what the audience wants to see.

a. American aunts are still posting videos of family dinners, and your "Chinese routine" crushes the audience.

b. A "stress relief slime" video brought $800 creator fund.

c. American users flew $40,000 orders for a video unboxing of "Yiwu small product".

d. Rural girls from Shandong use AI translation tools and earn $9,000 a month by teaching Chinese dance.

History is always repeating:

a. In 2018, Douyin raised "Fan Deng Reading" (earning 2 billion yuan per year)

b. In 2025, TikTok is creating the "International Version of Crazy Little Brother Yang" (Little Brother Yang is currently doing TK overseas business)

All of this is an opportunity.

Below is the introduction of the project that can be launched on TK for 0 cost.

0.3  What can I do on TikTok? (Sorted by difficulty)

1. Unmanned video editing (movement type)

The easiest way to get started.

The method is to re-edit, dubbing, and subtitle popular content on TikTok.

Make money by playing the amount of playback (creator fund) + showcase goods.

Among them, the Creator Fund is a must-do project for Xiaobai.

The income is about $0.5-2/thousand times to play → earn $1,500 in 5 months.

Successful cases include: College students use 50 hamsters to act cute and earn $3,200 per month.

Advantages: No face showing, no shooting, no supply of goods.

Disadvantages: The review is getting stricter and more stringent, and it is easy to limit flow. You must understand "pseudo-originality".


2. Affiliate Marketing (Affiliate)

TikTok has an affiliate program, you can hang links to other people's products.

To put it bluntly, it is Douyin’s expert showcase.

If someone places an order through your link, you will get a commission.

Advantages: Low cost and simple operation.

Disadvantages: Product selection is very important.


3. Independent site + brand number

You have your own products or send resources on behalf of others and can make a brand account.

TikTok attracts traffic, the homepage is linked to an independent website, and you ship the goods after the user places an order.

Advantages: High profits and sustainable.

Disadvantages: You must understand e-commerce and operations and be able to build independent websites (but they are all things that novices can learn from once they learn).
