Should I put up with FB's $25 daily budget limit, or just buy a verified BM with unlimited daily budget?

999michaelh · Jul 5, 2021

Hi guys,

I'm doing ecommerce and I just realized that FB says that my daily budget will be $25 for several weeks before it increases since my account is new.

Now that's obviously very annoying, so I was just thinking of ditching my new account and paying $300 for a verified BM with unlimited budget and using that.

What do you guys think?

Thx.

Depending on the phase you are in. For testing phase, running small amount is enough. But for scale phase, you must increase the budget. If you are not, your competitors will do that for you.

Hey, it does not work this way. Even with running ecommerce on a verified BM, your accounts could be flagged as well with the current facebook algo.

There is not much difference between verified BM and unverified BM rules are the same.
If you're new to Facebook ads then stick with your current account and learn and scale slowly.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the advice. However, I believe I have a winning product on my hands so I want to make sure that I'm able to scale big when I confirm that the product is good. Would suck if I had crazy good metrics and then got held back by a $25 budget.

Also if I had a larger budget, I could test my products in 1 day as opposed to 3 days. I really don't want to waste time...

However, I'm no expert so please correct me if my thinking is wrong!

How sure are you that it is a winning product? Is it your own unique product or something that is from china? Drop-shipping is way saturated but nearly impossible to get constant profits.

I've looked on google trends & looked at competitor's facebook ads and I think they're doing really well. Also appeared on ecomhunt. In any case, I just want to make sure I have the option of increasing my budget, and not be limited to $25, if I discover that the product is actually good.

You are not answering my question lol, is it a product from china or your own product? And also how sure are you that they're doing really well? The only ones that will do well are probably marketing their own product and they are building a brand.

My bad, I AM dropshipping but I am using a supplier that has fulfillment centers in various locations. My store has a branded feel.

They are dropshipping, their website sucks, but they have amazing engagement and great comments.

In any case, I'll know if it's a winner after testing

No offence but you’re all over the place and it’s common for people to think they’ve got the ‘winning product’ when starting out, which may not always be true.

I’d test your campaigns before looking to expand your budget.

That's where the issue is. Most people from start think they have a winning product. But after you try to scale up, you will realize that it is actually not that good. Hopefully it does work out for you

Verified BM and non-verified BM are essentially the same thing, but you can go to farms and rent accounts with high spending limits to scale instantly. you know...at this stage your products are delivering well. If I have to wait, it may pass

Hi! There is no significant difference in whether the BM is checked or not. take your time with advertising, act slowly and correctly, Facebook does not like too much activity, behave like a beginner.
