Is it too late to jump on the TikTok bandwagon ....

I really wish that when we had lockdown I had joined TikTok. I see so many people these days filming and reviewing .... and I just think ....I could do that ! I would love to try out products and clothes for free as i give reviews about them. People are getting free holidays just for reviewing . Obviously I understand that it is something that you have to spend time on ....but I am prepared to undertake all of that. I just wonder, is it too late to look into it properly and start .... Are there too many out there already .... Should I just give it a go .....

I honestly don't know... I was never interested in watching TikTok, let alone making an account and doing something like that. If it's what you want to do, then try it and see if you enjoy it. The worst that will happen is you decide you don't like it or it's taking too much of your time and you quit. *shrug*

I never bothered about it. I am not on TikTok or Instagram, it's just that I see people being free from the daily grind of a regular 9 - 5 job working for others.... and having a great time I know you have to work hard at it and put the time in to be really successful .....I am not afraid of that at all, infact I would thrive on it..The only thing is I need to keep working til I am up and running with it, and I am not sure about the implications of it concerning my day job.

@Traceyjayne I have an Instagram account but only use it so I can view stuff there by other myLotters. TikTok just seemed so juvenile to me... I never could get into it. You have to do/be really popular to actually make money doing it. All you can do is try and see what you think.

@DaddyEvil Yes, neither really appealed to me which is why I stayed away from them, but the last few months I have begun to think ....don't look at the platform, but think of what I would be doing. Not usually be one to blow my own trumpet, but I do think that I would be good and successful at it. I have worked on radio before and got the ' best presenter of the year award ' , so I would be confident in my presenting skills and my ability to have interesting patter.

I don't think it is too late to try if you really want it. It is free anyway. I haven't tried TikTok but I want to try YouTube.

@Traceyjayne I read somewhere that Tiktok is a good place if you want to try affiliate marketing.

Honestly, I'd go with YouTube shorts if you want to enter the arena. I think it will overtake TikTok and has a much wider and more secure audience and platform.
