This is one of the newest ways that Amazon sellers use to promote their products and, get prepared – it’s TikTok. If you are thinking right now that this platform is just for kids, you are partly correct. However, right now its potential is steadily growing among adults, especially those promoting their businesses.

Surprisingly, there are a lot of business owners promoting themselves in funny ways – one of them mentioned by Paulina is a lawyer, who started creating videos just a few months ago and yet has nearly 2M followers.
Paulina noticed that manufacturing videos are highly trending in e-commerce business videos. The thing is, people are not only might get interested in your product but also find you on other social media channels that you have linked your TikTok account to and it’s likely to make conversions. Paulina also believes that right now is the perfect timing to jump into it until the competition is not too high. The earlier you get on this platform, the more exposure you’ll get.
