My Shopify journey

Also I forgot to mention I changed up my pricing quite alot so my profit is way better.  I have a few variations  Sells for 24.95: costs me $9 Swlls for 34.95: costs me 14 Sells for 49.95: costs me $17 The $34.95 is the best seller, but $50 one sells quite bit too Get started with Shopify for FREE!

So here's what's happened.  So I was running the product, it was going great. I tried to scale my ads(they were all ppe ads)  and they fell apart and the cost per purchase skyrocketed. Ppe ads are hard to scale. So then I   started wc and they were working great. 470 in sales yesterday. And just when I thought I was  ready to scale big time something happened. So 2 seconds of my video is content of another  youtuber. That youtuber has over 400k subs I think. And she saw the ad and posted to her 50k  fb followers about my store and how we stole her content. Had people coming and reporting  my page and ads. i didn't want my ad account banned so I deleted my video and made a public  apology and stopped my ads. Now that situation is resolved but I'm at square one. I made a  new video. But then my paypal got limited. It got limited because my brothers got limited. And  they detected lots of similarities. Address, last name, ip, computers, etc. I talked t

I'm curious what the profit margins are on many of the products you are testing out, how was the profit margin on that 80k in sales your family member did. For someone without  experience to go online and create 80k in sales is impressive, curious as to the profit from  that? I think he had over 30k in profit. Earlier he had less but alot of the items didn't arrive in time  because of Christmas and he got like 6k back from AliExpress disputes Few questions: 1. How much budget do I need to start the same? That depends. $1000-$2000 would be good because that gives you a big budget to test stuff 2. Do you buy manually from Aliexpress or shopify does? I have no express with this software. Right now manualy 3. Is Wecoomerce similar to shopify? I haven't used woocommerce 4. Do I need to sell high price items? ( more than $ 20 ) or this can work with cheap stuff( under $ 5).   I ask becasue shipping cost at least $ 10 per item. y ou can sell w

It's a great day. This product is amazing. I have a 10% conversion rate on my store. I had 3 sales today. I lowered my price to 29.99, and I found the product on Ali express for $15.   So today 3 orders, and total 5 orders on this product. Im spending 20$ a day right now.  I started with 4 ppe ads. 2 different pages and 2 different ages. I found one of the pages didn't  give me good results so I cut out the 2 adsets with that page. And found 1 more page and  started 2 adsets for that. So 4 at the moment. Problem: There's only these 2 pages/interests to target on facebook. There's like no other good  pages above 40k reach. The reason for that is because they are all on Instagram. There's  millions on Instagram but barely any on facebook. This is because of the age group and niche  as well. If instagram is just as good as facebook, this is my 10k a day product, aslong as  facebook doesn't fuck up my ads when I try to scale. They have a reputation

Anyways product 2 i launched a web conversion ad. Not doing that well. I launched another product yesterday. Product 3: Launched yesterday. To date ive spent less than $8 cad on it. 4  different adsets. I  got  2 sales. 1 yesterday, 1 today. Im selling the product for $40, it costs me $17. So nice profit  margin. I saw the product on alibaba for really cheap. When I start scaling Ill look for better  prices. Im really hyped. I just hope they werent lucky sales. Today I'm gonna launch abunch  more  adsets and then wait a few days to see if sales are consistent, and ill continue making  more adsets, and scale if sales are consistent. Its only 1:51PM right now so I may get more  sales today. This is today and yesterday screenshot. Edit: Also my mom likes this product so I'm gonna order  it for her and this way ill also test the  supplier to check  shipping time and quality of the product Get started with Shopify for FREE!

So I stopped product one. I just don't think people were interested in buying it.  I launched a second product. It costs $14 on Aliexpress, I'm selling for 24.95. No sales on this  product. Still testing. I ran ppe ads. I was getting decent stats and clicks but no sales. I had  around 150 visits and no sales on that product. I stopped the ppe ads. I think a problem is my  site isn't converting. I'll be launching WC ads (add to cart). and Today I added some plugins to increase conversion  rates ( Countdown timer, sales pop, and others). Here's a pic of my ads in each adset. I had  another 1 in each one so I had 8 but for some reason most of the budget was spent on these  ones and not the other ones. Some decent CPC that could've been optimized but visitors  aren't  converting. So I'm going to run ATC for these same adsets and we'll see if it works. Next update probably on Sunday, I'll report on my ATC ads. And I'll p

So the View content ads aren't doing good, over $1 per click. But I will leave them for a bit  longer to see if they get better. The ppe ads are doing great though. CPM is under $3 for all of  them. And some great CPC. They are at $5 a day each, I'm not sure why it only spent $1-$2 on  each one so far, only less then 4 hours left in the day. Screenshot down below. Also I'm getting crazy shares, 188 shares and 106 likes. So the fact that people are sharing  more than liking is a good sign. And I'm getting really good organic reach as well because of all  the shares and its defintely giving me lots of clicks. I had 82 visitors to my site from facebook,  but it shows only 15 link clicks from my facebook ads. So around 67 organic clicks. This is bad. 97 visitors and only 1 sale. So like 10 minutes ago, I worked on the product  description to make it better. Hopefully, it converts better. I need to have made at least 2-3  sales

PRODUCT ONE So 3 products sold today. at $15 each. One person bought 1, the other bought 2. Product costs  me $4, so $11 each. around $33 profit before ads. At the time of typing this I've spent around  $30 on ads. So not much profit but this is good. Profit doesn't matter at this point. I'm testing different ad sets and will let them run for another 4-5 days. At the end, I will cut out the low-performing ones, and hopefully they will optimize and I will see better results. I was running 3 WC ads and 3 ppe ads and 5 minutes ago I added one more wc and one more PPE ad for this product. What I did today: Made my product page better by adding trust badges, more pictures, and fixed up the text a bit. What I still have to do today: Find another product (I have a few in mind) add it to the store create ad find targeting launch the ads. Get started with Shopify for FREE! No credit card required!

So I'm creating this journey to hopefully motivate some of you to do this, aswell as keep me motivated and get suggestions from you guys. My goal is to hit 10k a day in sales with a product. To some it may sound crazy, but it's really not because it's not hard to scale on facebook ads. A family member of mine did 80k in 10 days with no experience, so it's very possible. I started about 2 months ago. In December I shared a Shopify site with that family member, and had sales. About $200 but wasn't converting well. I made my own store now so it's easier to calculate costs and as well as have my own pixel. January I didnt do much due to exams but now I'm ready. On this journey I will post sales, profit, fb results, what I did that day and other strategies I used. I will not be sharing my product, nor my store until I decide to give up on that product and move to the next. Then I maybe will share the product, ads, and targeting. What I have done so far
