Update:

So I made 6 sales with my new brand this week and I lost in total around 100 euros.
Basically I broke even.

Because I bought the domain to for 100 euro.

I'm currently struggling BIG TIME with Facebook ads.

I've tested more than 15 ads and it is not working for me.
I know this product is a winner because I know other brands making millions with it.

The problem is my ad for sure.

I have the product at home and I love it.
I tried to create my own ad but it didn't work.

So I've contacted a guy on Fiverr and paid him 47 euro to make for me an video ad with 3 intro's
Hopefully this will fix everything.

And something else.

I am feeling like shit man.
I've gained 6 KG in 1,5 month, doing e-com fulltime.

Without going into much detail I'm in a really bad place currently.

I will update you soon.

Keep up the spirit brother, you're already doing more than 90% of the population, taking action

I'm thinking of making an E-book how not to get banned on Facebook.
I've learned a lot of things to prevent almost for 99% to get banned on Facebook.

Information that a lot of people not know.
I know from experience how frustrating this can be.

I will make it really easy to follow step by step and for a reasonable price for everyone.

What are your thoughts?

Would be intrested in that and will buy it. Let me know upfront I will give my review as well.

And good luck. You seems to be doing well and I recommend to focus more on profit than revenue as you can get more than 20k with 100k total revenue even though 20% is standard in this space.

solid journey really good one. with this progress you can really build a million dollar valuation ecom store especially if you have recurring sales with email marketing.

Update:

So the seller on Fiverr delivered the ads to me and It was really bad.

It looked very spammy and the music didn't watch the text.
So I asked him for a refund.

Not worth 47 euro for sure.
I was pretty upset because this guy seemed legit.

Anyway.

Today I almost wanted to give up.
I shut down my laptop and got up to do something else.

Now I read the comments and the support, It gives me motivation to keep going.

My ONLY problem right now is not knowing how to make great ads that is engaging and that has the right metrics.
I'm now still around 100- euro negative for this brand.

I'm gonna try to make new ads today and let them run tommorow.

I've also downloaded Photoshop + Adobe premiere.
I need to learn how to make ads and thumbnails.

And hopefully improve from there.

You're on the right path and don't get demotivated. Creating video ads by yourself will take some time, but it doesn't mean that it's not possible. Just try to play with some easy video editors like OpenShot, VSDC etc., Once you have some hands-on, you'll rock it. Another idea is that make some amateur videos from your customers by offering some discounts if they share the product review videos on their own. You can use these videos for your ad and believe me, it'll build trust in your product as well as your brand.

Update:

So 2 weeks in and I lost around 200-
I don't know why.. but it is just not working.

The cost of the ads are very high and almost everyone that sees my ad is not happy about it.

I spoke with someone about it yesterday and he told me this product was sold before in high volume.
Maybe that is why.

I will quit this brand right now.
I have to let the store open so that my customers get the product.

So that will be another 30- loss

Everything is going sideways.
I have no friends anymore.

My health is worse than ever, I look like shit.
Gained 8 KG of pure fat.

My wife is pregnant.
And I don't have money coming in.

Fuck this man. I will shut my laptop for now and wait until 16 february and start advertising for my other brand that was profitable in January.
I really don't know If I want to keep do this anymore.

Its great. Good luck with your journey

Update:

After my last update I was really pissed off man.
I just want to hit success and make money.

I know I can.
Others can do it, I can too.

I'm almost 1,5 years in the game and I'm getting angry that it takes me more time than others.
I want to hit 10k a day, 20, 30. and get rich and enjoy life and get on vacation.

I won't quit until I hit it.

So after that post I relaunched the ads on Facebook and started to make money again with my other store.
What a difference a product can make.

But the only thing that is pissing me off and I still don't know how to battle this.
Is when I launch a campaign the CPC is low and reasonable.

When I spent more, the CPC goes up almost double.

I'm gonna start tommorow with ABO adsets at low cost and duplicate what is working so in that case I have more adsets running.
I think the problem is, when you spent more, you pay more.

I wish Facebook had something like manual CPC like Google.

Keep you updated.

hi bro, one thing I don't understand, if you had good results with google, why not focus on google instead of facebook?

Last year I sold my business that was running on Google for an new opportunity.

I launched my new store and setup everything on Google and then they banned my Google Merchant Center and Google Ads account.
I've contacted support 100 times to help me, but they gave me some links to read and fix it on my own.

After 3 months trying, I gave up on Google for now.

So that is why I'm trying to learn Facebook, but I really hate it man.
If I can get advertise again on Google that would fix everything.

Update

I finally figured it out!

I'm currently making €1000 net profit a day with my store!
I've also started coaching people that are struggling with e-commerce 1 on 1.

I'm also working on my Ebook that will help you never get banned on Facebook ever again.
Information you never heard before from anyone.

When It comes out I will make it available here on BHW.

As for now, everything goes great.
Finally after 1000 of failures.

Will keep you updated when I hit my goal.

I'd rather focus on one by one, don't overdo yourself. Good luck!

Yes you are right, as for my store it is already automated and I hired someone that takes care of the customer support.
