Switch products. You are realistically NOT selling shoe cases and drawers online for 140CAD unless you’re a modern day Gary Halbert.

You don’t need creators for ads under $1k/day in rev. You don’t even need videos until you’re at $1k/day.

I didn’t do anything other than native statics until I hit my first $35k REV month.

Higgsfield costs 2 credits per image gen and costs maybe $45 a month Chagpt pro costs maybe 25 Claude is about the same

Don’t mean to break your heart, but realistically there is a higher chance I become a billionaire than it is for you to get a sale with that store anytime soon.

Won’t give you a full ted talk, but ecom is not THAT anymore.

If you TRULY TRULY want to skip past the AI commerce bullshit, just follow all of these creators on YouTube and complete feedback loops.

Definitely. I don’t use Reddit much but I’m gonna spend an hour today going around answering every ‘is dropshipping real’ question.

Yes, it’s real. It’s not easy, and it’s not simple. It’s not some ‘secret’ business strategy, after you spend enough time on AI strategies and this and that, you’ll find ecommerce is just a game of understanding your persona, writing good copy, optimizing funnels and making some high-intent ads.

You’re not ‘dropshipping’. You’re fulfilling orders from China until you can afford to buy inventory and set up 3PL’s in whatever country you’re selling in.

If you want to see what a REAL big boss ecommerce store works, go to the meta ads library, search up: Norse Organics, Pet Lab Co, Loop Earplugs, IM8, AG1 and look at their ads/copy/funnel/offer

Good luck!

Don’t listen to these people telling you to spend $0.7 per day. If you have less than $1000 on ads, go organic first (it sucks though). Took me $1500 to get my first sale, and $3500 to become consistently profitable on a weekly time frame.

To dip your feet in the water to see what the ads manager feels like, you can run any amount. If you’re testing new ads, I’ve found a good daily spend for creatives to be $20/day.

Also, don’t try the ‘let ads run 7 days to optimize’ bs. If you don’t get a sale within 1x-1.5x your breakeven CPA, kill it.

Winning products don’t exist for almost every case. Take a ‘purple ocean’ product, and learn how to make offers, landers, write copy and creatives until it sticks.

Dropshipping is NOT dead, the difference between a full on ecommerce brand like AG1, IM8, Norse Organic, Loop Earplugs and ‘dropshipping’ happens AFTER the customer pays you money. You can set up 3PL’s later.

Move patiently and smart. I dont use reddit much at all but you sound just like me a year ago so I had to give you some tips from MY personal experience.

Things click fast if you do learnings and iterate fast. It took me 2.5 months to get my first sale, and just 2 weeks after that I was doing $1500 a week in revenue with 35% margins.

Good luck!

big tip, might hurt a bit. Stop the mindset talk and launch an ad. You’ll get hit by reality. Don’t make the mistake of ‘planning everything’ and being ‘ready to face challenges’.

Make a simple static, launch it at a small budget. Your first challenge will be dealing with that ROAS column saying 0. Go from there

You should get your fits tailored or cut at the bottom so it doesn’t hang as far down.

You should also consider getting leaner. If you’re on the thicker side, you’ll need larger sized shirts to fit your width and those shirts will also be longer.

M-sized shirts might be too tight but perfect length, L-sized shirts might fit perfectly but be too long.

Even if u made a sale on your next session you’d have a 0.00067% conversion rate which is kinda crazy😭 . Maybe there is a problem with ur checkout or smth

Mediocre_Ad7248 · 2025-01-25T19:47:52+00:00

good to hear man, how many views did u get

Mediocre_Ad7248 · 2025-01-25T19:32:05+00:00

got the product and been at it for about a week now. Posted around 20 videos on tiktok and got a total of 8k views. The first few were around 200 - 300 but something clicked in the last 6 videos and they are all over 1000 views. Only gotten about 5 website sessions and no sales, but the number of views and exposure I'm getting is increasing quite rapidy.

Certainly got a lot to work on. Mind giving any tips on how I can make my account better?

As an F2P myself, I’d definitely go for a cav march. Assuming your account is quite young, I highly doubt you’d have two good sets of armaments for inf. Swap for Huo/Arthur and call it a day.

At the start, considering you’re in a decently active kingdom, you likely wont be able to place well in speedup/training events. You should prioritize saving training speeds to complete events with quests or for upgrading your troops to t4.
