TikTok and Youtube Ads

Am opening this thread to start a new journey from beginning.
So i created over the last 3 months my own product which is targeted for a specific niche which i want to hit now with our own advertisment clip on youtube and tiktok.

The problem currently is that i planned first starting with threshold accounts to check waters and conversions before going big.

So i made a research over the last couple of days and it seems there are no working google ads threshold accounts and also no tiktok threshold accounts other than one guy on bhw claiming he got one where somebody already posted he got scammed from the seller.

So i will keep looking for tik tok threshold accounts over the next 2 days and start tomorrow testing
a solution i came on my own for google ads.

Also started 3 days ago a new youtube account based on that niche and published 15 shorts.
Today one short got picked up by youtube and it received over the last 8 hours 1700 views and 7 subscribers.

The Video Ad has an URL of my shopify shop where i try to dropship a niche product from china as i can't find any supplier who has that product already in the US

Targeted customers are all from US/CA .
Content is all english.


Will make daily a small update to keep pushing me since its only a small side adventure for me .

I spoke with the seller and he told me that he sent it to the wrong address and he sent me a screenshot of this and said that the money would be returned to the customer without his intervention because he spoke with support and I spoke with the customer and so far he has not responded to me for two days. Did he get his money back or not? Therefore, I do not think that the seller stole the money because there was no answer. On the client side ever since

Just testing google ads accounts with my unique twists.

And saw something i didn't saw before.
When checking the payment tab under automatic payments to implement an idea of me its empty.

Someone knows what that means ?When the first payment will be billed?

You don't have any upcoming payments

P.S First campaign being reviewed

Just finished a call with google ads professional (no direct support).
It seems my google ads account has no payment till $500
Will test that limit if its really this way over the next days when the campaign gets approved.

Will try tomorrow to replicate it with a vcc since i used today my personal credit card

Youtube channel has currently 2000 views with 8 new subs organicly

Will also need to edit the advertisment clip because the URL in the bottom can't be seen because of youtube description overlaying it

Update :

Views up to 2300 and 8 subscribers

First campaign still under review.

Tried to replicate it today with a vcc.
Bought an indian vcc to test it and saw google ads is now only accepting PREPAYMENT from indian google ads accounts.

Going to test today more to replicate the first success

Ok so the account have thresholds which are being displayed once you get the first views on your ad.
Had today 4 test ads
where one was infeed for restricted finance niche and 3 others to choosen channels as infeed.
Nearly all displays were generated from the first ad where i would say 95% of displayes where generated in india via cellphones so i quickly excluded all countries which are tier 3 and majority of tier 2.

Displays slowed massivly down after that but what i don't understand is why i get nearly no displays on the other 3 ads which should be displayed in big financial youtube channels which get millions of views.

Will check tomorrow data since its only showing backwards

Update :

Found a way to display google video ads for 1/4 of the cost.
Created a first test campaign for my shopify webpage.

Results are bad.

1490 displayed instream ads , 558 views and from that 10 people went to my shopfity zero sales ,zero people put anything into their cart.

Cost $0.02 per view so we will come to a price of $20 per 1000 views (usa,ca) .

So the price is high and convertion low.
My margin per sale is arround $50 which means i need to get at least 1 customer per 2k views to break even.


During the test my google ad account got restricted however i applied and its back online.


I also tested before a small amount of traffic via infeed.
I have to say at current stage i like infeed way more.
Why ?Because instream bring no engagement to my channel at all.
In feed test of 2k views brought me 18 subscriptions 52 likes and 16 comments.

Its a nice side effect which grows your channel with the desired followers and more important personly i feel these people are more interrested in this content since they clicked on the infeed ad even the instream is being displayed
on very targeted channels only.

I belive these engagements also brings organic traffic.

Will make this week some test batches to see diffrence in results.

About shopify i see there only how many people come to the website from which country and the time.However i can't see their behavior on my website other than checkout,cart,ordered .

Is there any possibility to see how the traffic flow is to see where these people are exectly stopping/leaving ?

All the best for the journey.

Good luck with the journey.

Journey ended?

No it didn't ended.

Received some traffic to my ecommerce page but the conversion was horrible low so am currently focusing on improving the conversation rates
