Hey FLF
During quarantine I had created a shopify store. Here’s the product. www.theshmoothie.com
You are probably thinking why am I sharing it?
Well, I am at the stage of zero ideas on what to do next. So I am seeking advice from you more experienced dons.
Here’s the thought process.
I decided to go against dropshipping. So I ordered a sample and I had paid a small bit extra to put the customized logo, took some photos and did a video. The site in my opinion looks decent.
The idea was to promote the product without having the product in stock - something I learnt from @hughjasle to test your product without investing inventory.
So we got to FB ads, decided to run a couple campaigns, the whole idea was to go for engaged shoppers and try 3 different hook lines to different interests.
At first we did a test on the video, poor engagement, but one purchase! (I thought I was going to be richhhhh (im joking)).
Because of the poor engagement I thought let’s try with just photos for the ad. Zero.
Spent around $200 for advertising.
I guess I am at this stage I am running out of ideas on what to do next, hence why I have come here to you more experienced dons.
My personal belief is everything can be sold - just got to market it right.
I know I can’t expect solid results after just spending $200. But in my head I do think I should have gotten a lot more engagement with the posts. Is this a failed product? Should I move on? Am I missing something?
I am happy to share screenshots of the ad campaigns for someone to dissect even further.
