How to Make $ 50,000 with Other People's Videos?
At the beginning of the podcast, Nikita asked Anton directly — how much money he managed to make with the videos he took from Nikita and posted on TikTok, redirecting traffic to his Telegram channel. It turned out that by editing and reposting other people's videos, Anton earned a substantial amount — $ 50,000, which he received for advertising job vacancies on the channel. Affiliate programs looking for various employees — media buyers, content managers, team leaders, etc., acted as buyers.
According to Anton, the simplest traffic transfer combination from TikTok to Telegram looked like this:
Enhancing Your TikTok Account for Traffic Transfer
To ensure your account on this platform gathers tens or even hundreds of thousands of views and, consequently, can transfer more traffic to the Telegram channel, you need to meet specific criteria:
Anton claims that "apples" perform much better than their competitors on Android:
"If you look at the philosophy of TikTok and its history, it was created for the iPhone."
If trying to upload videos through anti-detect browsers using mobile proxies, the platform will catch this trick, and the video won't take off. According to the speaker's experience, videos uploaded this way didn't get more than a few thousand views.
Continuing the video uploading topic, Nikita asked where the iPhone should be located and what SIM card should be inserted. According to Anton, to upload, for example, to Egypt, an Egyptian SIM card should be inserted into the phone, and a VPN with an Egyptian IP address should be connected.
As he claims, to understand if the combination of these three factors works, it's enough to see what content you encounter on your TikTok. If it's Egyptian, everything is okay. If non-Egyptian content is shown in the app, your combination didn't work, and now you need to start over. To do this, simply reset all the settings on your smartphone and start over.
During the conversation, Nikita asked Anton if it was worth buying ready-made farmed accounts on TikTok for traffic transfer. As it turns out, it's possible to do without it by focusing on growing your account using the methodology he described in the podcast.
How Many TikTok Accounts Can You Create on One Phone?
Since Anton recommends uploading videos from a physical smartphone and buying a new iPhone for each new account is costly, Nikita asked how many accounts can currently be farmed on one phone. It turns out quite a few — up to 8 accounts, but there's an important point:
"There is a trend that if you have more than three accounts on one phone, the others will monetize worse, meaning they will generate fewer views."
Even if one of the farmed accounts on the phone gets banned, the others don't get affected, and you can continue transferring traffic from them.
Where to Get SIM Cards for TikTok Accounts?
A separate question that may arise for readers: "Where to get SIM cards for the country you plan to drive traffic to? How, while sitting somewhere in the CIS, can you get an American SIM card?" As it turns out, it's not about a physical SIM card but the phone number entered into TikTok. In this case, it's enough to find a service like Zadarma or SMS-activate that can receive SMS from the application. As an option, you can use the @mobile bot in Telegram, through which you can buy an eSIM for any country."
How to Build an Audience with Other People's Videos on TikTok?
So, you already have a smartphone, a SIM card or phone number, and a good VPN. Your next action is video uploading. Anton divides all videos into three formats:
Before uploading the video, you must spend time properly configuring the application. The first thing to do is set up TikTok to show videos based on recommendations that interest you. To do this, it's not enough to just select the appropriate video categories at the beginning of registering a new account; you also need to start viewing, liking, commenting, and searching for similar content in the application itself. For example, if you plan to redirect traffic to a Telegram channel about cars, then you need to look for videos about cars in the app.
So, before uploading the video, you need to take three actions:
Once you've made your interests clear to the platform, Anton recommends uploading several videos on the same topic for better association with the target audience. For the first videos, the speaker strongly recommends using tags and descriptions.
In addition, your video should also have:
Regarding videos, as the speaker claims, TikTok currently prioritizes recommending long videos. Short videos less than 10 seconds long, on the contrary, have less chance of breaking through to the user's smartphone screen. Anton recommends making videos from 11 seconds to a minute long.
About the Speaker's Team and Earnings
In the headline, we mentioned that Anton earns millions of rubles from TikTok traffic, but he doesn't do it alone — he has a team.
As of today, Anton's team consists of 20 people, each of whom has 6 to 10 working TikTok accounts, with one video uploaded daily to each. Following a specific algorithm, his team uploads 2 000 videos per month.
Currently, the speaker has 39 Telegram chats and channels, which, according to him, generate a total income of at least $100,000 each month. To keep this entire empire afloat, he spends no less than $50 000 every month.
For this entire system to work, Anton tries to adhere to three main Telegram monetization principles when selling ads there:
Continuing the topic of employees and expenses related to channel management, during the webinar, Nikita asked the speaker if there is a way to save on moderators' salaries. He received a quite obvious answer — use bots:
"You can hire people, or you can hire bots. It's a question of money. If you're ready to pay for people — pay. For a bot, you need to pay, but only once."
The main functionality of bots, according to the speaker, includes cleaning the chat of spam and removing people who violate the rules.
How to Avoid Scams on Telegram?
Buying/selling ads and courses through Telegram is another potential source of scams that cannot be avoided. To minimize the possibility of falling for scammers, the speaker gave a few simple tips:
In addition, we recommend another equally simple method, which does not give 100% certainty that you are dealing with a reliable person. Just check the account in search engines. If Google brings up the name of your counterparty, it's much better than dealing with a complete unknown without a trace on the internet.
