As an introvert like you, to make money on TikTok can appear impossible, especially if you’re someone like me not comfortable showing my face, which is why I go by the alias (The Masked Freelancer).
NOTE: You can apply this in other social media platforms.
However, you can still monetize your creativity and expertise on TikTok without revealing your identity. In this post, we’ll explore how introverts can make money on TikTok through the Creator Program without showing their faces.
