TikTok LIVE Training in the UK (TikTok Shop Performance Coaching)

To do live selling on TikTok, I’d keep it simple:

1. Plan your LIVE like a show: a hook, a rundown of products, and a clear offer for each item.

2. Go LIVE consistently (even if it’s short at first) so TikTok learns who to show you to.

3. Demonstrate the product on camera (show, don’t tell) and repeat the key benefits.

4. Talk to the comments constantly: name people, answer questions, and invite interaction.

5. Use LIVE tools like product pinning, vouchers, flash deals and countdowns when you’re ready.

   
   You don’t have to be loud, instead focus on being clear, human, and structured.

Not always.

You can go LIVE without TikTok Shop and still “sell” by directing viewers to a website link in bio, DMs, or other channels.

But if you want in-LIVE checkout (the smooth, impulse-friendly buying experience), you’ll typically need TikTok Shop so viewers can tap and buy without leaving the LIVE.

For most product businesses, that’s where conversion jumps.

A good rule: long enough to build momentum, short enough to stay sharp.

• If you’re newer: 60–90 minutes is a strong starting point.

• If you’re building traction: 2–3 hours gives TikTok more data and you more chances to convert.

  
  Within the LIVE, aim to spend roughly 5–10 minutes per product (demo + benefits + offer + Q&A), then rotate.

If you want performance (not vanity), focus on:

• ERR (Enter Room Rate): are people clicking into your LIVE when it’s shown?

• AVD (Average View Duration): do they stay, or bounce fast?

• CTR (Click-Through Rate): are they tapping your pinned product/carousel?

• C_O (Click-to-Order) and Conversion Rate: are clicks turning into purchases?

• GMV (Gross Merchandise Value): total sales generated.
  The magic is improving these together, because they’re connected: better hook and structure lifts ERR and AVD, stronger storytelling lifts CTR, and clear objection-handling lifts conversion.
