SPYING ON COMPETITION....

TIkTok dropped a nugget the size of a Big Mac 🍔

TikTok added a new feature that shows the Top Products being promoted on the app.

• What data?

  • You can filter according to:

    • Region

    • Product Category

    • Time Period

Why you care:

• Use it to budget your marketing. You can now see the advertising costs for your niche on TikTok

• You can reverse engineer your competitors ad sales and costs (they can do it to you too...)

What I am doing with it:

I am cross-referencing niches on TikTok with there corresponding Amazon niche..... 'cos I want to know.... How do TikTok trends effect Amazon sales?

Expect a looong case study in the next week......

MY NEW SOFTWARE....

It's FREE for now (saved my team 20 hours per week)

So are currently running 6 TikTok campaigns

Each campaign consists of:

• 6 videos

• 5 variations

A Total of 30 TikTok briefs are needed.

What's the fastest way to start?

AI FOR THE WIN 👊

I don't mean to be an AI-fan boy.... but right now I am building 3 automated ChatGPT3 businesses.... don't sleep on it)

I built a tool that will help create the TikTok brief based on your Amazon listing (or any listing you point it to...)

DROP-SHIPPER'S DILEMMA....

Why Amazon sellers are smarter 🏅

Generation Z are smart....

'Cos they don't trust dropshippers......

They know drop-shipping is a business that can be created by any fool.... even Michelangelo (the Ninja Turtle.... not the artist **you snob**)

So TikTok includes a drop-shipper in their weekly news update, I wanted to see what the TikTok community was saying:

Here is their page:

And when you search for them on TikTok:

And this is why drop-shippers lose out....

• TikTok SEO is a thing now... it's powerful and they should make sue their best videos are indexed for the organic traffic.

• Buyers Trust Amazon.... They missed out on a ton of sales. Drop-shippers don't know how to rank products on Amazon.... YOU DO... They can send highly converting traffic, but don't know how to use it on Amazon.... YOU DO 👊

LESSON THE DAY: Be scrappy like the drop shippers..... but send the traffic to Amazon or tell them how to find it on Amazon (AKA SFB 😉)

Also, what's the correct spelling of drop-shippers/dropshippers? My OCD is killling me... hit me a REPLY if you know the answer...

That's it for this week 👊

Over the next few days will send you some more case studies based on this info 👊

Thanks for reading.
