my question is I noticed you can post the TikTok sample videos "dark" and when you do this it doesn't show up on your profile nor does it really get views... still... it fulfills the TikTok sample order. I don't see how this helps the ones who give the samples. Do they see these metrics? Sometimes I want samples cuz I want the product but I also don't like spamming my audience with the advertising like videos. So I guess I am curious is it bad to post dark for samples does it affect you or the brand negatively? Or are they mainly doing it do have content or are they hoping you will help them get customers. I hope that makes since. I don't know if posting "dark" is cruel and if it is I'll be careful in the future but it would help to hear your thoughts on that. I feel like this is a question I haven't seen an answer too.
I received a message from a brand when applying to place their product on my showcase, they asked for shipping details or I could request a sample through TikTok, is this legit?
Why is it that I have TikTok shop but don’t have access to the free samples button nor the messages you are saying they send you. I’m just confused about the whole thing now? Please help
Helpful. But the first method…once you request, what happens? I’m nearing 10k followers (I know that’s no longer the threshold), have 700k likes, 10s of millions of views..it’s not clear how the product owner responds and/or gets your address to ship. Also unclear how to create a promo video and get the credit/attribution and thus commission.
Once you request the sample, it will pop up your address that it will ship to and you agree. Also when you request, it will show under your orders tab once the item is shipped and in transit. You can then add the item to your showcase and once you create your video before posting you will see product link, click product link and it will show your showcase and you link the product you’re promoting in the video to the video if you don’t add to showcase, you can search for the product in marketplace to add but it’s easier to just add to your showcase once you see the brand is preparing your shipment for the sample. Hope this helps!
Also if you need to add your address go to shop at the very top where you see orders, messages, &earn commission slide over and you’ll see address. Tap on it and you can add or edit your address
I have the free sample options but when I go to claim them, the button to get free sample isn't there. It's been like that for the past 2 weeks and their cs is not helping.
@@4RKAINEhe answered your specific question In regards to a "tiktok shop." No followers required. Now to open a affiliate shop you do need followers. 5k. There are ways around this though.
Thanks for putting this video together!
Awesome interview! Thank you both!
Great video 📹 👍 but I'm having trouble finding free samples in the marketplace. idk 😅 thanks again.

Do you have a list of recommended agencies?

Not all the products got free samples. When you go to the ''earn commission'' tab - there is a category called ''free samples'' and you use that
I am having this same issue just in the last few days
same here
Thank you!
I just sign up but I don’t know how to request free product or how to add products to my shop.
Do you have to have a tik tok shop
thank you

I have 10k followers every time I request a free samples they don’t approve it 😢😢😢😢
I have 200 followers and I’m getting like 1k worth of stuff coming soon from free samples
Are you able to do TikTok shop for a creator with 1k followers now?
yes
@@eeeeeeeee-b7c how do i do it
How did that one Lady sell that gardening tool if she didn’t have 5000 followers…? I’m confused… thanks for any input…!!! ???
There’s a work around
@@apekrazy1510I’m listening
@@apekrazy1510 what’s the work around please tell me
because you only need 1000 followers to start selling in the shop
How do you get them on an ipad
What if I am maxed out on requests? 😢

You are using a desktop cause I don’t survive manny of this option like I don’t see shop marketplace
do influencers purposely get free samples and promote them in hopes to make some money? Is this a normal thing and do they post "dark"?
Can you start TikTok shop with 0 followers?
yes they only require the 5000 followers to become an affiliate
@@vanillasuncherriesthen why did you say yes???
