this video is going to be an in-depth guide on how to actually make a video that's going to generate you your first commissions with affiliate marketing and if you've already done some sales or you've already done some views this video will still help you make better content and help you earn more money and the strategies inside this video can be applied to any sort of social media content this is not just specific for Tik Tok shop for those of you who haven't seen me on your foru page before my name is Michael and I've done
over a quarter billion views on social media yes billion with the B and I've generated over six figures with affiliate marketing on social media and some students who I've taught have produced results like this 20K and in one month in April I made another like 15K joined stay viral making under one grand per month and he just recently hit 10K per month with st he's one of the students of my program who earned just under 10 grand within his first month of starting and all these people are totally normal just like you now let's get
into the sauce now this might not be the exact same thing that everyone's going to tell you this is just for my experience I've done like 500 million views on social media so for my experience this is what I've noticed and things that I like to put as like a criteria to follow to go viral we got quite a few steps to go over so try and bear with me it might look a little boring but I promise this is going to be one of the best videos you probably see if you're someone who's trying
to go viral on social media we're going to speak for Tik Tok specifically on this video obviously this is kind of universal but this is more so for Tik Tok because I personally feel like when you're starting something from Ground Zero Tik Tok is the best way to get exposure now I'm not dissing on Instagram I'm not dissing on YouTube shorts but they're just a little bit harder to pick up traction on but once you do get traction on those platforms it's insane it's insane any platform once you get traction the amount of eyeballs you're
able to get and the audience that you're able to like cultivate is it's it's actually crazy but in my opinion I think Tik Tok does a really good job at like random placements when you're starting from like I said Ground Zero so it's going to start with your video and it's going to push it to the for you page and unlike other platforms this is going to go to a completely randomized audience so this is why it's very important to follow a criteria because you have to make sure that this randomized audience is able to
resonate with your video and spin it into virality so there's going to be a performance evaluation for your video this is what's going to determine if your video gets pushed to get millions of views or if your video is going to get stuck in like the 200 to 400 view Club so it's going to be your overall watch time which is like did they watch the full duration of the video it's going to be your watch time compared to video replays so how many times that they watch the video over again total replays same thing
likes and relations to view so like to view ratio comments and relations to view comment to view ratio shares in relations to views share to view ratio so obviously if there's a bad performance value people aren't liking aren't commenting aren't sharing aren't watching the video it's going to get bad performance and it does not get pushed right but if there's good quality content it's going to have good performance and this is kind of the like basic checklist okay this is like surface level right here so it's good lighting good filming I'd say stay away from
Android phones like iPhones tend to have the best quality you want to make sure like you don't have distorted you know images or distorted videos you want it to be very crisp very clear well positioned so like you don't want your product like half halfway off the screen you want it centered in the middle um aesthetic backgrounds so you know you kind of want your background to be congruent to your product like let's say I'm selling a gym product you know the congruency there would be in the gym maybe in your house in your kitchen
outside nice nature nice grass you get what I'm saying you want congruency if I'm doing like a weed product or something same thing like I'd probably go Take It Outside get a really nice background with it so you just want to make sure that your backgrounds are kind of congruent to what you're filming um easy to understand so like clear digestible content and then content that creates an emotion in the customer so people don't come onto Tik Tok and like Instagram and YouTube to be sold things they come to get entertained right so you want
to create an emotion in them that like subconsciously makes them want to hit a call to action or purchase your product and then lastly are you selling to the Right audience you know so you want to make sure that you're selling the product to the Right audience and does it look like a 10-year-old film is so you know that's kind of just like all of those stacked into one so some things to have good quality content to get good performance would be step one finding your target audience right so these are your potential customers people
with common interest that relate to your product and people who would actually just buy this product so think in terms of people who want your product right like if I'm running a men's gym supplement I'm not going to go sell it to middle-aged 40y old women's they're never going to buy the product so your audience targeting needs to be specific to people who are going to buy the product for example if I'm running a weed product my target audience is probably kids from like 18 to 25 depending on what the weed product is you know
if it's something that's like discrepancy hide hide your weed convenience your parents aren't going to smell it I'd say it falls into that kind of criteria where it's like that younger demographic 18 to 25 year olds so people are always like okay find my target audience how do I do that it's actually really simple I think people over complicate this way too much it's one through market research so go do your due diligence online go watch Tik toks go watch Instagrams Amazon ads just Google SEO like go search whatever product you're trying to find right
and go see what the is going on with that product whether it's a weed product it's a gym product it's a holistic supplement if it's a chocolate bar go see what the what the potential customers or what the people who buy that product are into what are their interests who is your target audience right so who buys this product spy on your competition like I said Instagram Tik Tok YouTube see what similar products and pages are doing so this is market research why do they buy it internet reviews Google reviews just do research on your
audience there's so many ways to do this so like let's say hypothetically I'm running a weed product and it's like a discret weed product right it's something that can like hide your weed from your parents I'm going to go look in the weed Niche I'm going to go on Tik Tok and search like hide Zaza Instagram hide Zaza same thing on Google you know hidden discret weed products and just go go do research go look at the reviews see what your customers are saying who are the people that are buying this product and that goes
universally between any product if it was a gym supplement same thing you would just do searches for gym Niche okay and then these are I'm going to show you guys some quick examples of like good audience targeting in my opinion so both of these are like excuse me both of these are products that fall under the weed Niche so one is like a discret product that's like no one knows what this is it doesn't look like a weed product but it actually gets you high it's like a wax pen and the other one are Edibles
so we're going to check these out and break them down for you guys okay that video right there did a million views and it's literally like eight seconds long super simple it does not get more basic than this POV how to confuse everyone at McDonald's so this is like perfect audience targeting right this is going to Target the younger demographic because immediately you start off with confusion you know you see the video you're like what am I looking at and then that younger demographic sees it open and they start looking at it and they're like
oh I know what this is everyone in McDonald's is confused so it makes them feel a little bit smart subconsciously because they're like putting two and two together like oh you know I just figured this out but on top of that it's like it's funny it's inside of the McDonald's it's a wax pen like it all kind of goes congruently together and that's why this video went viral so now the next video this one did like eight million views same thing 14 seconds and I'll break it down yo my dumbass has been sitting here eating
these damn ice cream cones they're good as hell just watching some snowfall but oh my God bro look what I just saw I might not wake up tomorrow so same thing like our target audience for these type of products like a weed product for example is like that younger kind of like brain rot demographic that you see on Tik Tok like all these younger kids who just think everything is so funny so that's what we're kind of trying to pinpoint here like with both of these videos so for this one same thing it's very like
organic and natural I'm just like guys like I've been watching snowfall snowfall is a super trending show bunch of kids in my demographic watch it or like my age range very easy to tie into this video it was super trending at the time too I made this video in like December or January so I said y'all my dumb ass has been sitting here eating these damn ice cream cones are good as hell just watching some snowfall but look what I just saw oh oh my God I'm done bro the comments went crazy on this video
everyone's like oh he's going to be in the hospital oh my God you're done for ha and it's like all these people that are you know potential customers for this product like everyone that's commenting is in my age range in my demographic like my potential customers so that's like good audience targeting right we took a funny angle on these products because the demographic for this product is a younger demographic people who were younger they like to laugh they're in like that like I said that kind of like brain rot age range whatever you would call
that so it works really well but like let's say I was selling a product like a holistic supplement for example to a 50-year-old woman right middle-aged woman needs a holistic supplement I would definitely not take like a funny angle with that product it's more serious you're trying to educate them you're trying to inform them so I would do like more of a storytelling angle or something where it's like a lot more educational and informative where you're like sharing an experience or you're just like laying straight facts on them you know so that's what I mean
when I say audience targeting like who you're selling to kind of matters what angle you take with your videos really important stuff so next is actually making them want to purchase so it's all about emotion sparking you know like I said people don't come on here to be sold they come on here to uh get entertained so this is why we find out target audience so we can show the people what they want right you don't want to show people like I said if you're a 50-year-old woman you don't want to show them like a
men's supplement product or a men's gym product you need to show these people what they want and that's why market research is so important because you can find pinpoints problems solutions things that your customers talk about that are like the reason they buy these products the reason they don't buy these products you can really get in the nitty-gritty of everything and pinpoint like insecurities problems solutions all that sort of stuff right so it makes the video feel personal authentic and organic when you're really able to show them what they want so you're going to hit
pinpoints problems show Solutions and when you target things like insecurities too like I just mentioned it makes getting personal so much easier with your viewer which makes them in turn more incentivized to buy like I said people hate to be sold but love to buy so make your content relatable to your targeted audience the more relatable your content is the more organic and natural it feels the more people are going to buy and hit you're call to action so remember too we're humans are emotional creatures like I'm sure you can vouch for this too when
you're in emotional state of mind like you don't make the most calculated decisions so you want to elicit an emotion in your customer happy sad um you know you educate them any emotion that you can create satisfied funny if you can create an emotion on them you can capitalize on those emotions to make them hit a call to action and then this is just like a little bonus tip I think it's really helpful to think in the customer's perspective like when I buy products online what's the common denominator right why do I buy something is
it trendy is it valuable is there Limited stock is it useful excuse me so try and really pinpoint the specific reason like why you buy products and you can kind of take that psychology into you when you sell products and then making them want to purchase I'll show you guys like a little example video here cut this out I'm done take me off take me off POV it's 10 p.m. and you're still 38 grams behind your protein bowl so this video worked so well because it's it hits every angle of everything right so people who
take protein bars protein powder Etc the common denominator there is people hate the taste they hate the texture everything about protein sucks I can vouch for it too like I hate protein shakes I hate protein bars this is a protein brownie unlike anything I've ever seen before so it solves that problem from your target audience right so through market research we can find out most people don't like the taste of protein okay what's an effective solution to that a better alternative so a brownie maybe a cookie maybe a cinnamon roll right now on top of
that it's 10 p.m. you're still 30 grams behind your protein goal and they have this funny audio behind it right this person's like stressing out they're like freaking out and then she goes she takes these brownies she gets two of them now she gets her her protein in you see how this you see how this is such an effective video because it's like hitting the problems on top of that they're tying in a funny emotion and then it's obviously like a great solution like a protein brownie that tastes great it gets your protein in it
just checks all the boxes so this is like a video right here that would make your customer want to purchase because one it's not too salesy like you're not telling me this is the best protein brownie I've ever tried you guys need to have it you know stuffing all this information down your throat it's like yo it's 10 o'clock I didn't eat my protein for the day I'm 40 grams behind my goal look at these brownies I'mma eat these fire solution everyone's like fireworks are going off like oh my god I've never seen protein brownies
before these look fire 40 grams for two like it's just beautiful emotion sparking it's beautiful audience targeting and it's really easy to make your customer want to purchase and funny enough I actually got like Tik Tok shop through this video right here I bought a pack of these because I saw this video so you know take these things into account when you're making your content now kind of the last couple things I want to touch on for this are making your content how to like set your content apart right so this is kind of like
the basic criteria for things this is going to be Universal for any videos like aside from audience targeting or any of that stuff because obviously like audience tar marting is going to be kind of specific to what product you're running or what brand you're working for but when you're doing your content this is your Universal principle and criteria checklist that you have to follow for every single brand every single product you make content for so you want to have strong visuals which means like no boring Clips right any product that you have like for example
I have this on my desk right now this is like a a powder supplement I could show this one of two ways I could show it just in the tub like this which is like a boring visual or what I could do is show visuals of me like taking the scoop out and showing the powder in action and then pouring it like back into the tub taking a scoop putting it into a glass of water mixing it around with a spoon showing the the formula dissolve in the water like just strong visuals that something that's
like actually eye capturing because obviously just looking at a tub of protein powder or whatever it is it's not visually appealing no one wants to look at that on top of that making your Clips high quality so 4K I I say just film on an iPhone always like hits the nail on the head with that editing on point so you know use cap cut and like other really good editing softwares and just make sure that your editing doesn't look like a 5-year-old did it like you want to make your videos really well paced make them
look good and I'm going to show you an example of good editing in this video right here but you want to cut out dead time you want to use transitions and just overall make your content very flowy and well paced right on top of that you want your content to be relatable if you can put in a slight layer of controversy that's always great don't get L controversial that's something I see way too much like people start like pumping lotion on their products and like putting like tissues next to it it's like no one's going
to purchase off of that you know what I mean no one is going to purchase off of that alongside that you want to make your content straight to the point so you know you want to make it easily digestible so someone's not like scratching their head like what is he talking about wait what what does that benefit this does that you want to just make it very easy to understand straight to the point so that your customer is getting the information they want and they're just like engaged in retained you know you don't want to
bore them and then they scroll past your video so make the video make the point of your video very clear whether you're educating informing relatable happy sad funny interesting satisfying whatever the point of your video is like make that very clear through your content and then lastly people get stuck in scroll patterns for hours so it's your job to break that scroll pattern right you have to create content that's going to stop them while they're scrolling and be like whoa what is this like I want to watch this video and that's done through Like Your
Hooks guys hooks are another huge one for this video that we're just going to talk about like the content criteria I don't want to get like too you know I don't want to Veer off too hard here so yeah people get stuck in scroll patterns they're Doom scrolling so your job is to make them stop that pattern for your content because it's interesting it's engaging it's valuable it's funny relatable whatever it is right um here's a couple helpful tools to help elevate your content and like when you're editing and stuff so there's cap cut that's
hands down the best editing software like just really really solid you can make a movie in that app um there's 11 labs this is an AI voiceover software so if you ever hear that really deep um AI voice that's 11 Labs pixels this is for stock images and videos so little like I think it's really important like when you're say like let's say you're making a script and you're talking about like this product's going to give you more energy and better neuro better function or something like that when you're making big claims like that on
a product I think it's really important to kind of like make the claims congruent and put a stock image or video like something with like biology or chemistry or something that just really gives that like good believability and makes it like just believable you know if you have like a like if I'm saying it gives you more energy and I have a clip of like a young girl running or something or like a guy you know hustling through the streets it's more believable it looks like it's congruent to what I'm saying or if I'm saying
it's going to add I don't know like more it's going to give you better mental function and brain cognitivity I do the same thing I put like a stock image of someone's brain doing like an x-ray or something maybe it gives it like more social proof it makes it more believable so I think stock images and videos are extremely valuable and not really talked about enough in this like whole content creation space or like organic content space so Adobe stock pixels you got them both right here fire fire fire for stock images stock videos next
is a tripod I think this is essential um just for like your phone positioning stability so you can like use both of your uh hands in frame like for example if this was if this microphone right here was my tripod you know I can use both of my hands in front of it Etc very important very important uh ring light also important I have one in front of me right now too it's for lighting duh like your lighting is extremely important and if you're not using a ring light for lighting go outside get good natural
lighting position yourself in the right angle so the sun is like beaming on your product and it looks really good and then a decent phone camera so you can get fire Clips decent phone camera like probably anything iPhone 12 plus you're good all right let's keep going through so I know that was a lot of information like I might have bounced around a lot there but if you can follow those steps like that is the value I've used all this criteria right here and it has worked for me countless times all of my students use
the exact same tactics too and like everyone's just killing it so this works this is like proven framework to current day that definitely works and if you do follow these steps you're going to get insane amounts of engagements that's from the proper and correct audience because sometimes you can have a video go viral but it goes viral to a bunch of 15 year-olds who don't have credit cards and are saying yo 4: am gang where you at you know what I mean so you want to make sure you're doing proper audience targeting and when you
do that people are going to share your page they're going to comment favorite like follow and all of that kind of going back to what I mentioned in the beginning you know pertains to the performance valuation which is going to push your video into the quality content area and then when that happens when content is relatable and is getting good engagement it gets pushed by the algorithm due to the good engagement goes onto the for you page and goes viral so that is really like exactly how this works I kind of missed this video right
here for setting your content apart so I'm going to go back real quick and I just want to show you guys like you know high quality Clips no dead time good pacing good editing showing the product in action just kind of like everything I broke down for how to set your content apart right here is 13 times stronger than ashwagandha and anything else on the market and this is why black seed oil otherwise known as the seed that can heal every disease except death as stated by our Prophet Muhammad contains thyo quinon known to cure
cancer diabetes obesity inflammation skin and hair Health viral infections infertility anxiety and more but why haven't hav you heard of it before it's because big companies like Pharma don't want you to find out about this natural remedy that can extend your life they want you to instead eat processed junk get sick and make them Rich by buying their medicine it's time for a change the world needs to know about black seed oil as you can see it's very like it's a totally different angle than like these two videos right here or like these three like
these are more of a funny angle like trying to make your customer laugh this is a more serious product this is something for your health this is something that's like a natural holistic remedy so I was very educational informative like I created scarcity around it right like the big pharmaceutical companies don't want you knowing about this this cures a b CDE E I went on the fat list in a big old tangent of like everything that it cures and the visuals too like as you can see through my visuals I there's always something going on
in the camera like I'm either pouring the oil out I'm showing the bottle I'm putting it into a glass of water like just constantly changing the visuals and pacing my my video in a way that's going to retain Eng people aren't going to get bored and scrolled because I'm just showing like this in screen you know every like second to two seconds something's changing something new is being said so that really helps retain engagement and like I said when you get all that people are going to comment favorite like follow puts your content into the
relatable category which gets good engagement gets pushed by the algorithm and goes onto the for you page to go viral so that was an in-depth guide on how you can make social media affiliate marketing videos that will actually print you money if you go out and actually do what I talked about in this video you will easily start making bread but short form content is not just a quality game it's also a volume game you need to be hella aggressive with the volume people talk about posting two to three videos a day but I want
you to aim for 6 to 10 videos a day with more volume you learn what methods and scripts work and you get more reps in because you need to move a speed see what sticks and then double down on it but if you're trying to learn faster hop in the Discord where you get a community of over a thousand people doing exactly what you're trying to do I'll get you connected with brands that will pay you monthly retainers and give you commissions for any sales that you make and give you constant updates on the market
