The buy list, four archetypes

Deliberately outside Chase's niche. No TikTok Shop programs, no direct competitors. Widest recognition, each with a famous high-ticket program behind it, zero overlap with people he needs as collaborators.

1.Crypto or trading. The highest-recognition category and the one with the most aggressive paid funnels.

1.Shopify dropshipping. The most-audited model on YouTube, which means the audience already suspects the answer and wants it confirmed by someone with receipts.

1.Amazon FBA. The respectable one. Capital-intensive, slow, and the category most likely to earn a genuinely fair grade.

1.AI automation or agency. The 2026 category. Newest funnels, highest prices, thinnest track record.

Competitors stay out, confirmed. C.J. Weber, Benjamin Jordan, Nick Fowler and Jimmy Farley are logged in the CRM and remain excluded. Buying a niche peer's program is a declaration of war in a small room, and the audience for "these four TikTok Shop guys are frauds" is limited to people who already know who they are. Broad money courses is a far larger browse audience, and every outlier above confirms it.

Every weak version of this format buys the thing and never tests the thing. The creator reviews the course as a course, page count and video quality and dead Discord, which any viewer could have guessed. The version that outperforms runs the method. Chase has to actually execute at least one blueprint per category, with real money and a real account, and show the number. Without that this is a book report.

Concept0.9k chars›

Purpose: Top of funnel entertainment. Chase spends TikTok Shop money on the 4 other ways to make money online to find out if any of them beat Affiliate Automated TikTok shop. (Sets up his mentorship without pitching it.)

Chase takes $[X] of TikTok Shop profit and buys popular paid programs in the 4 other ways to make money online: crypto, dropshipping, Amazon FBA and AI automation. Every checkout on camera. Then he runs all 4 for the same 7 days and measures each one against what that time made him on TikTok Shop.

One of the 4 gets genuinely close, and Chase says so.

For each of the 4 courses, Chase covers:

•The promise: what the guru says it does, in their own words.

•What you actually get: what is behind the paywall, screen recorded.

•The test: Chase runs the method 30 days with real money.

•The verdict: what it made vs what TikTok Shop made in the same 30 days.

CTA: Chase's TikTok Shop mentorship.

1.I Tried Every Other Way to Make Money Online. None of Them Beat This.

1.Is TikTok Shop Still the Best Way to Make Money Online? I Paid $[X] to Find Out

1.I Quit TikTok Shop for 30 Days and Tried Everything Else

Notes: 1 is the recommended lead. It carries the opportunity cost thesis and "none of them beat this" is a promise the video actually keeps. 2 is the search intent arm and matches the validated "is X still worth it in 2026" pattern that produced the biggest multiples in the research. 3 is the sharpest line but the most abstract. Run 1 against 2.

"Worth it?"

Concept A, the scoreboard. Four category labels stacked vertically, CRYPTO, DROPSHIPPING, AMAZON FBA, AI AGENCY, each with the dollar figure it made in 30 days. A fifth row at the bottom is TikTok Shop, blanked out. Chase on the left, arms crossed, calm. Text: NONE OF THEM BEAT THIS. The blanked fifth row is the click and it matches title 1.

Concept B, the receipt. Chase seated, plain frame, holding a genuinely long printed receipt running out of the bottom of the shot. Total in large type. Face calm, not shocked. Text: $[X] ON COURSES. The calmness is the differentiator, every competitor in this format uses an open-mouth shock face.

Concept C, the two screens. Split frame. Left, a guru's posted claim as a screenshot. Right, Chase's actual dashboard after running that exact method. Text: WORTH IT? Highest information density, best if the run-the-method results turn out to be the strongest asset in the footage.

Test A against B. A is the recommended lead because it carries the thesis rather than just the spend.

[CTA / LINK]

I make my money on TikTok Shop, so I took $[X] of it and bought the biggest paid course in the 4 other ways people claim you can make money online: crypto, dropshipping, Amazon FBA, and AI automation.

I ran all 4 for the same 30 days and measured what each one actually made me against what that same time would have made me on TikTok Shop, checkout screens and all.

One of the 4 got a lot closer than I expected, and I break down exactly why.
