FREE 30 Day Course

TikTok is the place to be right now! The platform is growing literally overnight and holds amazing opportunities for hustlers just like you.

The number one question I get in regards to side hustles is where should I start? Well, if you’re someone who doesn’t mind being in front of a camera and who is okay with making video content, there’s only one place to go all out — TikTok!

In a previous lesson, we talked about what TikTok is; this lesson is different. In today’s post, we will go over the technical aspects of using the app to its full potential. TikTok is not just a platform for dancing. Just like Facebook or Instagram, all types of businesses can use it. In fact, my page has gotten over 11 million in the past 28 from teaching business and finance content!

One of my friends Dr. Brad Klontz, who is actually another business verified TikTok influencer, and I actually created a whole course around TikTok. I created the monetization and marketing sides; Brad created the key insights for TikTok, how to grow, and the optimization side of the course.
