So, I’ve been scrolling TikTok (which I do try to avoid!), but as I’m recovering from the flu, I’ve found myself spending a bit more time on it than usual.
I keep seeing creators talking about how much commission they’re making through TikTok Shop, and I’m genuinely curious… is it really as good as they make out?
Some are claiming to make £500–£600 a day, which is absolutely mind-boggling! Are these figures genuine, or are some people exaggerating?
I appreciate it’s probably not as easy as they make it look, but I’d love to hear from anyone who actually creates content or sells through TikTok Shop. Is it genuinely possible to make that sort of money, or is it all a bit too good to be true?

Yep. Check out Cami. She’s brilliant. But, most don’t make much or give up it get account bans etc. it’s not for the faint hearted.

0.5% of people on tik tok will make some money
the rest won’t
Becoming a creator is hard work and it’s pennies per views

Depends if you have a following or the item goes viral. If not you might make a few pennies.
