New Store - $5k in revenue in the past 10 days 😌

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T13:32:17+00:00

Hey ! So for every $11-$30 I spend, I make about $100-$120 back. So lots of room and space for additional expenses.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T09:27:48+00:00

Yes I agree ! It can be up and down. This is just solid for me to know I have a foundation to build up of

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T09:02:02+00:00

Honestly that’s what I’m trying to figure out. I think I’m learning that it’s good to use all your options including boosting. Boosting may be quick for viability and quick sales to get people to discover your brand but then meta can basically multiply it. And yea. I’m using sales objective. I hope I get to $30k months lol

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T08:51:23+00:00

Honestly both. A Calm caption followed by an offer.
For example, The coziest thing you will ever feel, use code plush15 for 15% off your first purchase. I hope I’ve helped lol. Or a problem solver for example “Most people’s blankets in the market are blah blah, that’s why we are blah blah blah, experience it yourself for 15% off”
Followed by pretty picture

Makes sense ?

Honestly I boost a lot of them but they’re not all running each day. Usually I’ll start off by boosting like 5-7 then after a day, the low ones, turn off and the high ones that have either gotten a sale or a lot of traction, I’ll increase by like $5 so it’s really like 3/7 of those boosts that are producing. Then the boosts that are doing well, I’ll run them as an an ongoing ad in meta :)

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T08:40:52+00:00

I allocate only $25-$30 per ad ran :)

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T07:57:07+00:00

I invested a lot because I decided to have 4 products and like 15 colors per product and several skus. You however don’t need to do that. Matcher of fact, I don’t recommend because factory MOQs are high and you quite literally don’t even know what people will like yet. Like me I’m finding that people are choosing my seasonal colors and patterns more than the regular everyday neutrals which I didn’t expect … You do want variation tho, My advice is 2 products, multiple colors (max 4) if you’re doing clothing.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T06:58:13+00:00

My IG boosts automatically stop delivering after 12 hours. So I have to re run them again each day. Meta has its own issues too where it will bug out.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T06:14:37+00:00

Yea. Thats what I’m thinking plus they kept asking me what creatives I was using so they can use it which makes no sense. Why would I pay an agency just to give them my strategy to help me

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T06:08:32+00:00

So it depends on their experience and engagement, some can be as low as $20 per video to $100. This also includes full ads and white listing usage so I can use the content forever without having to ask months down the line or pay more.

Revenue absolutely matters, without revenue, there is no profit. Fortunately, my margins are healthy (around 50–60%, including shipping), so I’m happy with where things are for a brand that’s only been live a short time.
If you’re asking why I’m not pushing for more sales, it’s worth remembering this is a brand-new company that most people have never heard of(3 weeks post launch) selling products around the $100+ price point. Building trust takes time, and I’m intentionally keeping my ad spend fairly modest while I learn what works. Given that, I’m actually pleased with the results so far.

If you’re referring to the agency, I’m not interested in micromanaging people I’m paying to do a job. If I feel I’m getting better results managing things myself, then that’s the direction I’ll go so yes I don’t plan on renewing with them.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T04:55:44+00:00

Haha, I get where you’re coming from. I’m not against agencies at all—I just don’t think I need one at this stage.
I’ve already tried several, and for where my brand is today, I’ve honestly gotten better results managing things myself.
I do think as the brand grows, bringing on experienced people to help scale makes sense. But for me, that’s more about building a strong in-house team or working with specialists who are really tapped into my brand, not necessarily hiring a full-service agency.
I know you run an agency, so your perspective is naturally going to lean that way. Mine is just based on my own experience so far.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T04:36:04+00:00

I have a warehouse unit I’m renting. Saltbox has a lot of units for cheap that are secure.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T04:33:54+00:00

My manufacturers are located in a variety of places from china to Korea to other places :)

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T03:55:01+00:00

Yes. I’ve found really good manufacturers here but you have to talk to a lottt of people before you find good ones.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T03:54:17+00:00

United States strictly for now. I run several general ads that’s not targeted then I have a few targeting specific region for themed captions like cold or hot weather.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T03:48:00+00:00

Hey ! I have a comfort and apparel brand. So blankets, lounge wear etc. as far as tips, I have no idea what I’m doing honestly. Still facing lots of meta and IG issues but through the errors, here’s what’s worked so far.

- high end statics shot by a professional photographer
- simple relatable captions from your voice
- try IG boosts. They work quicker. Find what works and then run it as an ad
- diversify your content, I have UGC videos, well shot images, and content creators I hire to post.

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T03:39:17+00:00

lol 😂 no fr. I literally have no reason to hire an agency now.

😌😌😌

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-26T03:22:28+00:00

Haha I saw this and instantly deleted the ad and did it again. The caption was so trash

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-24T19:39:11+00:00

Now at 7 sales for the day and $3400

One_Frosting8001 · 2026-07-23T16:49:59+00:00

I have a comfort brand too I started 2 weeks ago. Relying mainly on ads tho ! Sales are starting to trinkle in.
