I want to be a Tiktoker for tech topics!
Tiktok has risen to the top at exponential speeds, millions of people are creating content on Tiktok and billions of minutes are spent consuming that content. Tiktok has been an indirect competitor to streaming services cause of the times its users consume the app. I have been using Tiktok for a while and have been able to curate a list of creators that I follow to get diverse content from different influencers. What I have noticed so far is, that there is a space for localization of several categories, especially tech/software (not the reviewer one), Crypto and Startups. People are moving away from dance walks and there is a demand for content to learn from, presented in a short and fun way. Being a Tiktoker will create your brand, and also will add a revenue stream for you in the longer term.
Anyway, I am a little camera shy for now but I will start my Tiktok journey in some time, till then I have compiled a Google Sheet with ideas for each category that you can make Tiktok of. I have listed ideas like
- How to set up E-commerce store in an hour? (you can refer to getchikoo.com or dukan.pk or blinkco.io)
2. Where to buy NFTs from.
3. What’s the website to buy .pk domain.
4. How Dropbox founder did the idea validation.
5. What is flipping.
6. Blockchain in journalism.
And there are many others like it. Here is the link for the Google Sheet. The list is not in any particular order, do check it and start creating content.
Moreover, Tiktok Influencers have different ways of delivering their content, some have a monologue style, some have random ways of putting things, one does live coding, and one account does the question-answer form of content. For example, Justin Kan is the founder of twitch and has a very simple way of telling about his startup journey, while logicalfinance account has a question-answer way of delivering the content and there are many other great Tiktok creators you can follow. I have listed a few of the Tiktoker that you can follow and see what they are up to:
- Jerry Chen — @misodope
2. Anjali Tewani — @anjali_tweani_
3. Liz Kenyon —@ liz.kenyon
4. Ahsan — @code.with.ahsan
5. Justin Kan (Cofounder Twitch) — justinkan
6. LogicalFinance — @logicalfinance
Pickup a style and try if it works for you. Also you can use Pinterest on how to create a setup for your background. Following can be few of the examples.
While you are planning to be a Tiktoker, tiktok can be a source of side income and I have listed some of the revenue streams.
- Software product endorsement.
- Paid campaigns for gadgets.
- Share Buy me a coffee link with your followers.
- Create a Patreon account and give those member exclusive access to exclusive content or some value addition to your content.
- Redirect your followers or community to more value added content, or any products you are selling or a service you are offering. Provide value addition to your followers and they will buy whatever you have to offer.
