what's up you guys jason wardrop here and in today's video i want to break down how i went
from zero to over 10 000 followers on tiktok you can see right here i'm sitting at just over 14 000
followers and i did this in the last 30 days and i want to show you guys exactly what i did i've got
six simple steps i'm gonna share with you guys in this video so you can literally
replicate everything that i did and the best part is from going from zero to ten thousand followers
i didn't spend any money on paid advertising i didn't leverage any of my existing
following on social media on youtube or email us or anything like that i just went through and i
wanted to figure out how can i organically grow this without leveraging any existing
content or following or anything else that i have so that you guys can go through model it replicate
it for your own business so i'm gonna walk you guys through the six simple steps here so if you
guys don't mind do me a favor just smash that like button so i can go through and break down
everything that i did they were just 30 days ago i literally had zero falling and now i have over 14
000 followers and honestly the followers is more like a vanity metric what the real key metric is
is be able to get to your first thousand followers because once you have a thousand followers you can
add a link in your bio right here so when people watch your videos and they click to your bio
they can actually click out to your landing page your website and you can generate a lead you can
build your email list and actually make real money right so the very first thing that i did is i
thought about okay what type of account do i want to go through and create and the number one best
thing to do is pick a specific niche or industry that you're going to make all your content about
because sometimes people want to go and create a new social media account and they might make
a video about making money and then losing weight and fitness and different things and so it's so
scattered that like nobody really wants to follow you because if somebody came to your channel your
account because of one specific video but then all the videos are about something different then it's
not really going to want them to stick around and so pick first what you want to go through and make
your account about and then once you've picked out the specific niche or industry that you want to
make all your videos about then you want to find a few different accounts that have similar content
to the content that you've created and ideally you want to find accounts with tens of thousands of
followers hundreds of thousands of followers so one you know that there's a market and then two
what we're going to do is we're going to actually leverage their following to ignite our initial
following before we've even posted a video so rewind 30 days ago the first thing that i
did was i was like okay i know a few people on tik tok because i've talked to people that are
on tick tock and i've heard about how fast their business has grown so one of my buddies i'll pull
up his account right here i went to his account and i just typed it in and i was doing this all
on my mobile phone because it's a lot easier to do a lot of the stuff on your mobile phone but
for the purposes of demonstration on this video i'm just doing on my my desktop computer right
here so i clicked in and you can see he has 491 000 followers that's a lot of followers right
so what i did was i clicked into his followers which you can't do on a desktop but you can
do that on a mobile app and so i clicked in and i started following the people that followed him
and i would only follow people that looked like it was like a legit profile because i don't want
to follow any bots because a bot probably is not going to go through and follow you
back and it's not going to be a real viewer a real subscriber or anything like that and so i
went through and you can't go and follow like a thousand people or 2 000 people at the same time
but i would follow about 50 people at a time and then there's a few other accounts similar to his
account that i would go in and i would do the same type of thing i would go through and i'd
fall about 50 people and then a couple hours would go by i'd fall about 50 people and i got
to the point where my main profile you can see over here let me just refresh this real quick
my my main profile i was following you can see right here i've been following only seven people
now i was following about 1500 people right and so getting the initial 1500 follows i got about
450 people to follow me back so the great thing about that is i didn't have to spend any money
on getting followers or anything like that there's 450 people that are following my account before i
even posted a video and these were all people that followed accounts similar to the account that i
was trying to create so i knew they'd probably be my ideal target audience for the long haul right
and also once i personally post my first video it wasn't going to be going to a you know to
zero following because we want some followers to be able to go through and initially ignite
that first video so that was the first thing i did followed about 1500 people got about 450 followers
back however that's not a thousand followers and we want to go through and get to a thousand
followers so we can go through and add a link down here to our landing page our website so
we can start capturing leads for our business and honestly before i had those first thousand
followers it was tough getting the mindset right to go and create more content because i was like
okay well if i can't generate leads i can't get you know people to my website
then is this really worth it okay well the next thing that i did is i started making videos
and luckily for me i have some background in youtube and so i know it helps you know people
to click on videos so i know what kind of keeps the watch time up and different things like that
but some of the things that i would do is i would go to my most popular popular youtube videos
and i'd basically create a 60 to 90 second version of my youtube videos that i knew were popular so
what makes these videos popular these are kind of the next key points when you're going through and
creating your videos now if you think about a tick tock video and you compare it to like a youtube ad
a youtube ad you can skip it after five seconds right well a tick tock video is kind of similar
but you don't even have five seconds you have maybe one second to catch the person's attention
and so in the first like one to two seconds what you want to do is you want to have an initial hook
to pull in the audience so whoever's going to be watching your video so mine's all about marketing
mine's all about software and how to make money online how to build your own business
entrepreneurship and so one of my core videos which i'll play for you guys here in just a second
we'll break it down step by step why i believe it actually went viral and then some tips and tricks
that i would do so you don't get your tick tock account banned but the first thing i would do is
say hey how would you like to make 500 per day on google right and so right out of the gate in
the first one to two seconds i've already got the hook how would you like to make 500 per day
online or on google or whatever it might be and so already i'm like okay if somebody's looking to
build their own business if someone's wanting to go through and build you know a marketing business
entrepreneurship something like that and they're looking to do it online that's going to be a great
hook to pull them in okay and then the second thing is what i did right after that is i would
back it up with proof right because obviously anyone could go through and say hey how would
you like to make 500 per day online it's gonna bring someone in but then to keep them there
we need to back it up with proof so i went through and i would show proof
and like i said i'll show you guys that video here in just a second we'll dissect it
but then the next thing that is really important with tick tock's algorithm
is watch time okay so we got the hook so we got them to actually like stop scrolling we
got the proof to kind of like okay build it in and then the watch time how we get that increase
is by simply showing them step by step the process but not unveiling everything in the whole process
until the end of the video all right so let's take a look at this video right here and we're
just going to play it because you'll be able to see like all these things that i'm talking about
happening in this video and how you can go through and literally replicate a similar type of video so
you can kind of take off go viral and get those first several thousand followers in your first
30 days i want to show you how to make 500 per day online with no marketing experience no tech skills
and literally no money to get started so you heard right there first of all i said hey how would you
like to make your first 500 per day online and then i countered everything that people were
gonna have as objections right out of the gate and also you don't need any marketing experience you
don't need any tech skills and literally no money to get started because most people when they hear
a strategy to go through and make money online they're like oh well i don't have any skills
i don't know how to go do techie stuff or i don't have any marketing experience i don't
know how to do that or i don't have money to go through and invest to actually make this happen
so i'm counting those all right from the beginning and then the next thing i'm doing
you guys will see right here i'm backing everything i just set up with proof
leveraging the same model that i'm about to show you i made 115 000 last month with over
47 000 in monthly recurring revenue which means even if i don't make any more money
in this next month i'm still gonna make forty seven thousand dollars because it is recurring
so let me break this business model down for you real quick step one pull up all right so now what
i'm doing is i'm breaking the business model down going step by step and one of the key points here
this is something i learned from an early mentor when you're going through and explaining some type
of business model you want to simplify it down as much as possible to the point that a lot of
times people say like third grade proof can a third grader understand it nowadays i feel like
third graders understand technology and online internet stuff way more than the older generation
so i always like to think about it is can my grandma understand everything
that's going on if my grandma can understand the business model and what i'm explaining
then i know it passes the simplicity check so let's check this out google easy enough right
step two we're gonna find a local business in your local area that we can help get to the
top of google without even running ads for so for this example we're going to use plumbers near me
now when we scroll down past the ads we're going to find is local businesses in your local area
that are recommended by google and you can see they're recommended because they have
480 reviews 15 000 reviews so we want to find businesses with not a lot of reviews
helping get more reviews so they can get ranked at the top of google all right i found jerry's
plumbing they only have five five star reviews but they've been in business for over 10 years
so the next thing i'm going to do is i'm going to connect their business to a simple
software that's going to be able to automate the whole online review process so they can get more
five-star reviews on complete autopilot without me having to do anything on an ongoing basis
so here's a look at the software all i have to do is come over here and click connect then once you
connect that business account all you can do is click generate link and save and everything else
is done for you on complete autopilot and the best part about this is business owners will pay you
500 per month every single month for this simple service and if you want to see more details on
how to all right so there was a quick breakdown of the exact video the initial hook right the proof
going through and showing step-by-step simplicity and not unveiling the whole business model until
the very end now here's a couple of things that i would say is word of caution because
i went through and made this video and you can see that as my second video absolutely blew up
took off and then these other ones not as much right this one's house star software business
this is why sas or software as a service is the number one business model and then i did some
random video of my kid and my tesla right here playing a little little game um now here's the
thing i actually went through and i talked about this one the hook how to make 500 per day online
and then i was like okay i know this this works on youtube so i'm just going to go through and
talk about how to make a thousand dollars per day or how to make 500 per week or just
different like hooks with making money online now the truth is i didn't know this because i had no
experience in tick-tock but tick-tock does not like it when you talk about making money online
and so those next several videos they actually got banned and they got taken off of tick-tock and so
they started going through and they started having a pretty good run and they got banned and so i
stopped making videos like that because i was like well i don't want to like totally kill my account
because at the time this video was about 500 000 views and it was still getting tens of thousands
of views every single day and it was still getting people to click to my landing page
and getting new leads and opt-ins every single day so i didn't want to kill the life of this video
so what i did is i went through and i actually took this video and i was like hey this is working
tick tock says it's fine and so i started putting money behind this video this is only about a week
ago so i already had my first 10 000 followers so this is before you know putting money behind it i
didn't you know have to put money behind it to get all the way to 14 000 followers but once i started
putting money behind it because i was like this is a proven video i know it works and the crazy
thing is i was starting to see leads coming into my business for less than two dollars per lead and
i actually shot a video this past week showing you guys the entire step-by-step setup of using tick
tock's ad manager of how i went through and did that whole lead generation setup process so you
guys can go check that out literally model exactly everything that i was doing right there um but
that was the great thing about it is now instead of having to go through and make all these videos
every single day and try to get tons of exposure i just took the winning video put some money behind
it and now i'm able to get a consistent flow of leads every single day by simply leveraging paid
advertising to get my brand out there even more so if i were you if i was going through and starting
over completely from scratch one i'd first go through and follow 1500 people that or even up
to 2 000 people that are following accounts that are similar to the account that you're trying to
create and then i would create anywhere between 15 to 20 videos especially if you're newer at this
creating different hooks to pull people in and the whole idea of these 15 to 20 videos is to see
which hook is pulling people in the best and then whatever video is performing better than the
others go and start putting some money behind it to be able to grow your reach grow your following
and pull more leads into your business and that is the great thing about tiktok is you're able
to test a lot of this these different hooks and advertising angles without spending any initial
money and then if you ever want to go through and test a new hook or a new ad angle just make
another video and see how well it performs to your following to your audience and then if it performs
well then put some money behind it if it doesn't then obviously you can just say hey well didn't
perform well and just move on right so anyway guys i hope that was helpful as far as going
from literally zero to over 10 000 followers in just 30 days and how i've even even be able to
go through and grow beyond that so if you guys are looking to go through and replicate this
like i said first follow about 1500 to 2 000 people get those first four to 500 followers
then start making 15 to 20 videos find out what videos are really hooking and really catching
people's attention then from there put some money behind it and start scaling up your business right
so with that said guys thanks so much for watching and i'll see you in the next video
