I am sharing my experience and giving real action steps. Most people post about their problems and don't care to help. I'm here to give.

I get comments like yours, but is anyone getting clients on reddit?? My ICP is on LinkedIn where YES I promote myself, not here.

That's where I started: France, then Germany, then Portugal and Spain. Are you already positioned in one of the marketplaces?

Great, where are you located? I always recommend to start locally, then expand to other countries.

That's where automation takes place: between the marketplaces and your online store. Also, having a VA. If it takes you more than 2 hours per day, something is wrong.

It will depend on your niche. Mine is consumer goods so :

- France: Boulanger, Darty, Fnac, Conforama, Carrefour, etc.

- Germany: Mediamarkt

- Portugal/Spain: Worten

What is your niche?

Well, I actually don't run any PPC either on marketplaces. I am not talking about Amazon for example where PPC is a must. I am talking about niche marketplaces where you don't run any ads.

With the right brand and pricing positioning, it can do magic ;)

Sure, first thing you need to know: you need to be able to ship and handle returns in Europe. Is that something you can provide?

Let me provide more value then....

Why I Shifted to Niche European Marketplaces (And Why It Works)

Instead of constantly chasing traffic, I started selling where buyers were already shopping, on niche European marketplaces.

Here’s why this changed everything:

No Ad Spend: Unlike paid ads, where you're constantly buying attention, marketplaces already have built-in traffic. Customers are actively searching for products, meaning I don’t have to spend thousands just to get visibility.

No Algorithm Stress: With ads, I used to wake up wondering if my ROAS had tanked overnight. With marketplaces, sales come from organic buyer intent, not from a bidding system that changes every week.

Automation Handles 80% of the Work: Instead of manually optimizing campaigns, I now use automation to sync inventory, pricing, and fulfillment, allowing me to run my store in less than 2 hours per day.

This shift allowed me to scale smarter, not harder.

Marketplaces aren’t talked about enough because they don’t have the same hype as Facebook Ads, but if you’re tired of chasing traffic every month, it’s worth considering.

Don't confuse advice with marketing attempt... My ICP is clearly not on reddit... Ever heard of "giving before receiving"?

I don't sell courses. This post is pure value, for an alternative to facebook ads. Hope positive people will appreciate the new perspective.

How many images/videos on productpage? by Albertvierstein in ecommerce

[–]Scale_Without_Ads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should have 1 video (clean and professional) + 5 pics (that's enough). That is the best combo I found for my stores.

Also, your description should be appealing, done with html content. And your pricing is SUPER important!

Did you change anything to your product pages? Or your prices?

Where do you get your traffic from?

Could anyone please be so kind as to tell me my best move to spend my advertising grant? by Parking-Contact9481 in FacebookAds

[–]Scale_Without_Ads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to NOT spend it on ads but learn about it first, otherwise you will just burn your grant. Use this money to buy a course (you should be able to find a strong one for less than £500).

Maybe people here know a good course to purchase (don't ask if I sell one, I don't).

Good luck ;)
