What TikTok Clipping Gurus Don't Tell You...

Summary

In this video, the speaker critiques the oversaturated and risky TikTok money-making strategy using Crayo software and faceless videos, which face issues like generic content, account bans, and potential platform instability.

Q & A

Why is it getting harder to make money on TikTok through Musa's method?

It’s becoming harder because more and more people are using the same strategy, making it saturated. Additionally, TikTok accounts are frequently banned, and TikTok itself might be banned in the U.S., impacting revenue potential.

What is the core problem with using Musa's software (Crayo) for TikTok videos?

The core problem is that the content created using Crayo looks the same as everyone else's. Since multiple people use the software, the videos lack uniqueness, which diminishes the chances of going viral.

How does Musa make most of his money if it’s not from TikTok ad revenue?

Musa primarily earns money from his software, Crayo, and from his paid Discord community. His strategy focuses on selling software and community memberships, rather than relying on ad revenue from TikTok.

What is the biggest risk when trying to earn money from TikTok's Creativity Rewards program?

The biggest risk is that TikTok accounts get banned easily. Even after building up a TikTok account to meet the monetization requirements, it could be taken down, preventing you from earning money.

Why is TikTok's future uncertain in the United States, and how does this affect creators?

TikTok faces the risk of being banned in the U.S., which is problematic because a significant portion of TikTok’s revenue comes from American advertisers. If TikTok loses this revenue, it could affect the payments to creators.

What alternative model is suggested instead of using TikTok for ad revenue?

The suggested alternative is digital arbitrage. This model involves promoting digital products through social media and earning commissions by selling other people's products, rather than relying on TikTok's ad revenue.

Digital arbitrage allows creators to make significantly more money, up to $20,000 per million views, by earning commissions from selling digital products. Unlike TikTok, it doesn’t depend on ad revenue, making it more sustainable and profitable.

What are the key steps in starting with digital arbitrage?

The steps include creating a social media profile, choosing a product to promote from platforms like Emi.com or Digistore24.com, creating content around that product, and placing an affiliate link in your bio to earn commissions.

What niches should be targeted for promoting digital products in digital arbitrage?

The main niches to target are health, wealth, and relationships, as these areas address deep-rooted problems that people are actively seeking solutions for.

How do commissions work in the digital arbitrage model?
