Why I Started DROPSHIPPING on TikTok Shop (2026)

so when I started Drop Shipping over 7 years ago I really had no idea how much it would change my life Not only was I able to quit my job but I was able to travel to amazing places all over the world while still earning money from my various drop shipping stores every single day now when I first started I was only really Drop Shipping on eBay but later I started Drop Shipping using other websites like Amazon and Facebook marketplace now though I think it's the perfect time for the next evolution in Drop Shipping time to take advantage of an exploding marketplace with nearly infinite potential it's time of course to start Tik Tock shop Drop Shipping now I think it's safe to assume that everyone knows what Tik Tock is but I don't think everyone knows exactly what Tik Tock shop is so if you open up your Tik Tock app and click on the top where it says shop you can actually see a ton of different products for sale here pretty much everything imaginable is being sold now on Tik Tock shop now this has a very similar feel to something like Facebook Marketplace but Tik Tok shop has done something very unique that makes it incredibly powerful you see when you sell on most marketplaces you and you alone are the one that's responsible for actually selling the products and we usually do that by focusing on trending products and by optimizing them in a way that gets us more sales but ultimately it's up to us to actually sell the products those things are still important on Tik Tok but Tik Tok has done something very different here they have set up what is essentially their own affiliate program that allows any Creator on Tik Tok to sell these products to sell your products for you so not only can you make sales organically but you can literally have an army of creators who will actually sell your products for you and the best part is that you w't even need to pay these creators upfront they only get paid and get a commission if they actually sell your products for instance this is a very popular account from the UK called daily deals UK and all this guy does is he posts up different videos talking about and recommending different products that are available on Tik Tock shop and if you watch one of these videos and you want the product all you have to do is Click through and actually purchase it but this guy doesn't actually own any of these products he's not selling these products himself he just recommends them in videos and then gets sales for those products he gets a commission for it and the person selling it on Tik Tok shop makes money as well now why is this important well as we know Tik Tok is huge it's really a dominating force in the social media space and Tik Tok has found a very smart way to link products on Tik Tock shop directly with the same Tik Tok videos that often go Mega viral in fact we've seen some drop shippers who have been able to make a lot of money after getting just one product picked up by one Creator who makes one viral video about it never before have small sellers had access to so much advertising power so how does this work well basically all we're doing is we're finding products that are available on other websites like Amazon or ebay. com and we are listing those products for sale onto Tik Tock shop and luckily this is very easy to do with software this is a software that I use is called autods and if I come to the product section I just want to show you one of the products I have listed it's this bread box so all I did was this product is available on Amazon I just grabbed the URL for that product put it into autods and what autods is now done is it is listed that product automatically for sale for me onto Tik Tock shop now for those of you who are wondering exactly how this works there's no direct connection between autod DS and Tik Tock shop so we have to use like this middle step in here using Shopify so basically the way this works is I added the product into autods that will then automatically listed into Shopify and then from there it's automatically listed into Tik Tock shop it sounds a little complicated but I promise you it's really not that bad in fact once you set up this system you really don't even have to log in to your Shopify account at all most of your business can be run directly inside of autods here so once it's set up it's pretty simple to run at least this part of the business now the question is if you're just getting started with Drop Shipping should you sell on Tik Tock shop or should you start somewhere else like eBay or Facebook Marketplace well my answer is actually very simple yes from what I've seen if you want a successful Drop Shipping Store you should be selling on several different marketplaces and while that might sound complicated it's actually the opposite you see I found that it's easier and actually less stressful

to build several smaller but successful stores on different marketplaces than it is to try to build just one huge store on One Marketplace this has always been my strategy when it comes to drop shipping but I'm now seeing it become more and more important in fact in the coming months you're probably going to hear me talk about this a lot more the importance of diversification The Importance of Being in multiple different marketplaces because after speaking with thousands of success uccessful drop shippers I'm seeing that the ones that are the most successful for the longest amount of time are the ones who have been able to build out A Drop Shipping system that can be applied to any Marketplace eBay Facebook Marketplace Tik Tock shop or really whatever comes next these people these drop shippers we're not putting all our eggs in one basket and we're not limiting ourselves to Just One Marketplace and that's what brought me to Tik Tock shop in the first place it's important I think to keep innovating and adapting and it's important to grab these new opportunities like this when they come up and what makes this even easier is that all of these different businesses can be run directly from this one software you can have one autods account and run your eBay store your Facebook Marketplace store and your Tik Tok shop as well so it really makes it a lot easier all right so I actually recorded most of the video you've seen already a while ago since then I've learned a lot about Tik Tok shop Drop Shipping and I've certainly faced a lot of challenges with it as well now if you want me to make a video outlining all of my results and how well it worked let me know in the comments section down below if enough people are interested I'd be happy to make that video just make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it but for now if you enjoyed this video make sure to give it a thumbs up and then I'll see you in the next video bye for now
