Had 6 sales but none now :(

[ibrahim11]

Hi, I had 6 sales for one product and 2 refunds. In total I made $141 and invested $215. However, I have just stopped promoting on facebook because I have had no sales for the past 4 days . I have other products I was promoting but they didn't work out. Bing ads brings traffic but no conversions.

You should find cheap and better conversion paid traffic, i think it's not simple just promote it with Facebook, Bing.... and get rich. Smaller network they have lower CPC

Hey Ibrahim - give us a few more details about the type of product you are selling (don't need to tell us exactly, just what niche is it in, is it a physical product or an ebook, for example).

What CPC were you paying? How many clicks did you take to get your original sales?

 

[mangoman]

those arent horrible results.. you need to tweak your methods to find a bit more targeted traffic....your on the right track though good luck

Sounds like you need traffic which is more targeted you need people that actually want what your selling.

The type of product that got 6 sales (and 2 refunds) was in the learning niche. It's aimed at parents.
My average cost per click was $0.31. For my original 3 sales (1 resulted in a refund) I only had about LESS THAN 30-50 hops.

do you mean 0.31 CPC for fb ads? that is insanely high. If you target first tier country, try to get your engagement down to 0.03-0.05$ per engagement.

Are you using a landing page? Direct linking or driving them to an opt-in?

Have you tried using services that offer competitive intelligence like whatrunswhere or adbeat?

That's your problem. With such an average cost, you should promote a MUCH MORE expensive product.. Either stop using Facebook Ads or decreate this amount A LOT!!!

I am using a landing page that I have made a review of the product. At the end I have a button which says "Click here for more information" or "Watch the video". These button(s) redirect the users to the vendor

Thanks for the tip. I will now try a promoting a higher affiliate paying product.

How can I reduce my CPC/reduce my cost per engagement?

Find another source of traffic that you can be profitable with.

Such advice....

You gotta bring your CTR in your ADs as FB is social media. High engagement - Low price.
