How To Make $1,000 Per Day With TikTok Shop

If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok lately chances are you’ve seen creators talking about TikTok Shop and how they’re making money promoting products. Some are earning a few extra bucks while others are raking in serious cash like $1,000 a day or more.

And here’s the wild part you don’t need a huge following, crazy editing skills or years of marketing experience to do it.

In this guide I’m going to break down how YOU can make $1,000 per day with TikTok Shop even if you’re a total beginner. We’ll talk about how it works, what kind of content you should be making, how to pick the right products and how to turn your TikTok account into a money making machine.

First, What Is TikTok Shop?

TikTok Shop is TikTok’s built in eCommerce feature that lets creators and brands sell products directly through the app.

That means people can watch a video, click on a link and buy a product without ever leaving TikTok.

As a creator you can:

• Sell your own products if you have a brand

• Or promote other people’s products as an affiliate

Today we’re focusing on the second option promoting affiliate products. It’s the easiest way to get started and make money fast especially if you don’t have your own store or product yet.

How TikTok Shop Affiliates Make Money

Let’s say you find a cool product on TikTok Shop like a portable blender. You make a short video showing it off, maybe a quick “Amazon finds” style video. If someone watches your video, clicks your link and buys it? Boom. You get a commission.

Simple right?

Now imagine that video goes viral and gets 100,000 views. Even if just a small percentage of those viewers buy you could be looking at hundreds or thousands of dollars in commissions from one video.

Here’s a rough breakdown:

• Product price: $29.99

• Commission rate: 20%

• You earn: $6 per sale

• 200 sales = $1,200

Totally doable. And you don’t even need a viral video to hit $1,000/day consistency and smart product selection go a long way.

Step 1: Set Up Your TikTok Shop Affiliate Account

Before you can promote anything you need to apply as an affiliate.

Here’s how to get started:

1. Go to the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center: You can find this at TikTok Shop Creator Center

2. Create an account (use your TikTok login).

3. Apply to become an affiliate (sometimes this requires a certain number of followers but many people get approved with just a few).

4. Once approved you’ll have access to the Product Marketplace where you can browse products and see the commission rates.

Pro tip: Look for high-commission, trending and low-competition products. More on this in a sec.

Step 2: Pick Winning Products (That Actually Sell)

This is the most important step. If you pick the wrong product even the best video won’t convert.

So what makes a great TikTok Shop product?

 It solves a problem

Think: cleaning hacks, skincare, kitchen gadgets, phone accessories.

 It’s visually engaging

You need to be able to show it in action. Boring products don’t get clicks.

 It has a solid commission

Aim for 15%–30% commission. Some even offer 50% if they’re newer brands trying to get traction.

 It’s under $50

Impulse buys work best on TikTok. If it’s too expensive people will think twice.

Bonus tip: Check what’s trending on TikTok itself. Go to the search bar and type “TikTok made me buy it” or “Amazon must haves” and scroll through. You’ll see what’s currently going viral.

Step 3: Create Scroll-Stopping Content

Let’s be real if your video doesn’t grab attention in the first 3 seconds you’re toast.

But here’s the good news you don’t need to be a professional filmmaker to go viral. You just need to be relatable, creative and real.

Here are some content ideas that work well:

• Unboxing/First Impressions – Show what it looks like right out of the box.

• Before & After – Works great for cleaning or beauty products.

• Problem/Solution Format – “I was tired of X… until I found this!”

• Duets & Stitching – React to other TikToks or reviews.

• Mini Reviews – 15-second product reviews with clear benefits.

Tips to keep in mind:

• Hook them FAST – Start with a bold claim or question.

• Keep it short & snappy – 15–30 seconds is the sweet spot.

• Use captions – Many people watch without sound.

• Include a call to action – “Link in bio” “Grab it from my TikTok Shop” etc.

Don’t worry if your first few videos flop. TikTok is a numbers game. Keep posting and testing different angles.

Step 4: Post Consistently (Yes, Even When You Don’t Feel Like It)

If you want to hit $1,000 per day you need a system.

Aim to post at least 2–3 videos per day especially when you’re just starting out. Think of each video as a mini sales rep working for you 24/7.

The more videos you post:

• The more chances you have to go viral

• The more data you’ll get on what works

• The more money you’ll make

Use a simple content batching system. Spend one day recording 10–15 short videos then schedule or post them throughout the week.

Step 5: Optimize Your Profile For Sales

Your TikTok bio should make it super easy for people to buy from you.

Here’s what to do:

• Switch to a Business or Creator account (if you haven’t already).

• Add your TikTok Shop link to your bio.

• Include a call to action in your bio like:
  “ My favorite gadgets ”

Also pin your top performing or highest converting videos to your profile. That way new visitors immediately see your best stuff.

Step 6: Track What’s Working & Double Down

Not every product will be a hit and that’s okay.

Use TikTok’s analytics + TikTok Shop reports to see:

• Which videos get the most views

• Which ones are actually converting into sales

• What time of day your audience is most active

When you find a product or video angle that works? Run with it.

Make more videos from different angles:

• Use different hooks

• Try new formats (voiceover, reaction, trending sound)

• Show different use cases or benefits

This is how you build momentum and scale from $100/day to $1,000/day.

Bonus: Want To Scale Faster? Try This

Once you’ve got a few products converting well consider these two power moves:

1. Start a second or niche account

Let’s say your first account is broad and you find that beauty gadgets sell well. Start a second TikTok focused only on beauty. This helps TikTok’s algorithm understand your audience better and can lead to faster growth.

2. Use other platforms to drive traffic

You can repurpose your TikToks on:

• Instagram Reels

• YouTube Shorts

• Pinterest Idea Pins (yes even here you can link to your TikTok Shop)

Cross posting helps you get more eyeballs on your videos without extra effort.

Real Talk: Is $1,000 Per Day Really Possible?

Yes but it won’t happen overnight.

Here’s what most creators who are crushing it have in common:

• They post consistently every day

• They test a LOT of products

• They pay attention to what’s working

• They focus on solving problems not just selling

You don’t need a massive following to win with TikTok Shop. I’ve seen people with a few thousand followers pull in hundreds per day just by posting the right content.

It’s all about strategy + consistency.
