Choose the Right Product(s)
Choose the products you want to promote wisely on TikTok. It is not about advertising any products that you sell but to advertise the right products. Analyze your potential audience to have an idea of what people are looking for and check for the popular hashtags.
To select the right product, we suggest you do product research on Amazon to see what is popular, then check on TikTok which kind of products are trendy right now. However, do not pick a product from a super saturated category, because it would be hard to stand out from the competition especially if you are a new user on TikTok.
Do not rush anything, it is important that you spend a little bit of time analyzing the market and the different factors to reach a broader audience.
