TikTok's Viral Secrets

TikTok has a secret hack that lets you go viral.

Creators exploit it like crazy.

Now even affiliates are exploiting it because of commissions paid by TikTok Shops.

Its the easiest way to make $10k per month by being a TikTok creator for brands.

TikTok makes it easy to go viral organically. You don't even have to turn on paid ads.

If you know how to go viral, you can get as many impressions as you want.

So when creating TikTok videos, you want to optimize for eyeballs, not conversions. Once you have the viral video, everybody leaves comments.

TikTok allows you to make videos responding to comments from older videos and when you respond to comments from the original viral video, it actually retargets all of the initial viewers from that original video.

And in those retargeting videos, you sell the shit out of your product.

Hat tip to Oliver Brocato for the hack. He used it to go from $0 to $11m in sales in 18 months.

Remember, you don't have to make videos on only top comments. Make them on the ones you can come up with the funniest replies for.

Or just farm your own comments from alternate accounts or ask your friends so you can actually make it viral.

And you don't need to be a comedian to come up with a funny comment. Ask ChatGPT to write funny comments and replies. I ask for 100 variations to spark creativity. It often comes down to nailing a prompt.

Don't forget that most marketing is deceptive. Trust me, I'm not lying.

Google's secret tool for text2text, text2image, and text2music

Google has a secret tool where you can use text2text, text2image, and text2music for free.

And its really good as far as free products go.

Check out the AI Test Kitchen to sign-up for it.

If it isn't available in your country, use a VPN. I recommend Mullvad.

This 2-minute video shows you how anyone can infiltrate your company by having basic Social Engineering Skills.

You can use techniques like this to get a promotion, get info from competitors, or anything you can think of.

Tweet of the day

This is a crazy SEO case study.

John went from 0 to 8k clicks in just 3 months with AI-generated content.

Google can't detect AI-generated content as long as your content is good.

Embrace AI or get left behind.

Rabbit Holes

  1. Taylordle - Newsjacking on Wordle by Swifties - Newsjacking is the art of piggybacking on trending topics to draw attention to your own brand. Its great for going viral.

  2. 🔎 Product Review: James Clear’s Atoms - Everyone read Atomic Habits. After many years, James Clear launched a premium app to create habits called Atoms. This is a great breakdown.

  3. How to Write Cold Emails and DMs That Actually Get Replies - Writing a good cold email is a skill. The hook should be good. You should keep it short and all that stuff. This post covers a real example from a high-schooler.

Startup of the day

Payman AI is one hell of an idea.

Payman gives your AI Agents the ability to have access to capital so that they can pay humans for their expertise in completing specialized tasks they need done.

It isn't AI vs Humans. Its AI plus Humans.

Haven't seen a more mind-blowing AI agents use-case than this. This demo video explains it better.

Imagine a Doctor using AI Agents to review if what the AI said is correct or not before operating on your body. Wouldn't that be useful?

Think about Lawyers.

Basically, you can extrapolate that to any field.

The guy who built it lives in the future.

One rule when a new platform starts is to jump on it. If it takes off, you'll win big. Be the first marketer on AI Agents and see your earnings explode.

Until next time,

Your Spells Master!
