Great video. the affiliate program> if i want a creator to sell something, do they have to add the link to my ecom-shop via TT or do i send the affiliate link to them via TT? thanks

[@TrevinPeterson]

Thank you!! And if they are a TikTok shop affiliate and you have an open collaboration set up you don’t need to do anything

[@RealEstateDreaming.]

I'm not seeing a save option to save the video

[@xnighthawk6371]

The whole reason I watched this video is because I'm trying to figure out the logistics and fulfillment part. You can't import from China "otherwise your shop will get banned?" but I see other tiktok shops with 10-15 day delivery time wich makes me think they figured out a way around it? HOW??? And I can't afford a 3PL yet. Do I just bulk import products and ship them myself? That would be a pain unless there was a way around it like with these other shops... These questions I cannot for the life of me, find answers to on KZbin. This is probably the 14th video on "How to sell on Tiktok shop" I've watched and And still nobody is talking about this part.

[@ladynobug8759]

tiktok only gives 3 days for shop owner to fill in the tracking number, so it has to have inventory locally platforms like DropTK has products that are already dropshippable from the US.

[@SharVanityBeauty]

I need the answers as well I have been wondering the same

[@user-wv3br2gk6n]

Ship yourself to test products. You can import 100 units or less to test then once you have a winner go 3PL. I'm curious what you mean by you can't afford a 3PL. There is minimal upfront cost with onboarding to a 3PL, you don't get charged until they fulfill the orders.

[@SharVanityBeauty]

What does 3PL stand for

[@ladynobug8759]

there are platforms that dropship from US locally

[@andreasrainer9746]

hey thank you for the video:) may i ask where i can find products to sell?

[@TrevinPeterson]

So I do what’s called private label! I build my own brands. Start them on Amazon and then build off of that into other marketplaces

[@marythompson1800]

Thank you!

[@Attaullah-ur7mf]

Can you make a video on sourcing or dropping website like Avasam or other one ? Automatic sourcing platform in UK market ?

[@TrevinPeterson]

I don’t live in the UK so it’s not applicable

[@victordemyan4283]

where are you getting the product ? is it ur own that ur getting from aliexpress or is this an amazon product that ur just getting a commission on ?

[@TrevinPeterson]

I am manufacturing my own products! Not from AliExpress

[@Tj-pg2gp]

Will you mind sharing what supplier/warehouse you used to get your product if you dont mind me asking please ?

[@TrevinPeterson]

I have a sourcing agent that does it for me or use alibaba

[@Tj-pg2gp]

@@TrevinPeterson you mind sharing how i can contact your sourcing agent please

[@CalebTemple]

Where did you go about finding your products to sell? Is it like dropshipping where you sell through a site like ali express or do you somehow order all the products yourself at a cheaper price and hold your own inventory?

[@TrevinPeterson]

Good question. I took my products I am selling already on Amazon and am now selling them on TikTok shop! So no I am not dropshipping or using AliExpress.

[@CalebTemple]

@@TrevinPeterson Ahh okay. What do most people typically use for products besides amazon then? I am assuming like traditional dropshipping?

[@TrevinPeterson]

@@CalebTemple yes but dropshipping isn’t sustainable for the long term. You need to build a brand if you want to succeed

Hey trevin i need some help. I live in antigua and this region is not recognized on any thing to make money online that easily.. i have over 18.k followers on tiktok and i cant open a tiktok shop because of where i live. How can i be able to get a tiktok shop on my account?

[@TrevinPeterson]

You won’t be able to unfortunately. The best option for you is Amazon FBA! Check out some resources here at fbachampion.com

[@stanokrejnus8834]

Hi Trevin, Probably silly question, but what % you pay to affiliates? I think you mentioned 15%? The silly question is: is it 15% from the price of the product or from your profit. e.g. product sale price $20 so 15% out of 20? or product price $20, your cost to obtain product is $5 so 15% out of $15?

[@TrevinPeterson]

% varies and is up to you!! But it is off the price. So if you sell for $100 and you affiliate percentage is 15%. You would pay the affiliate $15 for every sale they drive

[@stanokrejnus8834]

Awesome, thank you

[@Blakecollins23]

What if you took the winning affiliate creative and boosted that? Sounds like money to me

[@TrevinPeterson]

Yep that works really well also! Find what is working and put money behind it

[@comesc]

I see what you're saying but working with affiliates won't generate a sustainable biz like ad traffic. It will generate a stable CoGS/margins as the CPA is fixed but in terms of revenue, it's impossible to build anything with affiliates as they'll (in 99% of cases) only share it with their followers (which grows at less than 1%/month) and you constantly need to look for new affiliates (and you'll have weeks with zero new affiliates that manage to do high scale - and what if you already down 6 or 7 figs for stock as you had a good month but now you only gain traction from tier-3 affiliates who sell few products weekly? The interest on the loan would kill your business). Why I said "99% of cases"? The only way it'll work with affiliates is if THEY are media buyers and THEY will pay for ads, something that financially won't make any sense (if it was working, you'd just pay them fixed $400 or $4,,000 to make the video, and you'll be the one to pay for ads). There's no affiliate/influencer/creator arbitrage when it comes to TikTok ads.

[@TrevinPeterson]

Do you sell on TikTok?

[@comesc]

@@TrevinPeterson yes, and here's what REALLY works - affiliates for POC & ads for boost / scale

[@TrevinPeterson]

[@TrevinPeterson]

You need to verify your tiktok account.

[@CesarAugusto_1998]

I need a American passport ou drivers licence do register my TikTok shop american account but i am from brazil and don't have these docs, what do i do

[@TrevinPeterson]

You will need to create and LLC and get an ITIN number. Definitely a longer and more complicated process for those outside the US

[@leeannharper1004]

You need a friend in the USA that you can use the last 4 digits of their SSN, a picture of their DL or passport, copy of their utility bill with their address on it, plus set up a LLC or C -corp for the business number. I am from Canada and after 6 weeks of trying i got in and now am a tiktok seller - was not easy but will be worth it.

[@veeanon2238]

the affiliate marketplace is horrible full of content farms and spam accounts. Like sure it might get sells but not like an actual influencer would.

[@TrevinPeterson]

That’s what’s nice about it. You don’t need to be your typical influencer
