nobody interested in Shopify? It's quarter 4, the best time to make sales...

I've been building cats stores for a fair rate. Training people as well. Hit me if you're interested. The game is really moving different this year.

I want to do this but worried I will get the marketing wrong and not drive people to my site. Do you help with that as well? Show your clients how to deploy a marketing strategy to drive people to their site?

Definitely, marketing strategy is key to determining how you achieve success metrics in e-com.

@wenndigo What would you say is the best size fb audience to target? What would you consider too small/narrow vs too big/not narrow enough?

In previous years it was important to be super specific "laser targeting". Nowadays, I tend to not use any audience under 300k. Audiences up to 6M have worked fine for me as well. The FB algorithm has just gotten really good at finding those who will convert.

As you scale, you're supposed to broaden your audiences, but there's no use in targeting 'men' for example, if your product only applies to women. Facebook will deduce this automatically, but save the money.

Nice. How do you feel about the learning phase. Usually i’ll do anywhere from $25-$50 for an ad set for purchase conversions but i’ll kill it after 3 days if there’s little to no sales. Is that too soon, Should I be giving the algorithm/learning more time?

You need to know your margin. If it's 20$, spend up to $60 to see a sale on an adset. You can do it in 1 day, or 3. Learning phase is majority B.S. Sometimes an adset or campaign is hot out the gate. Other times it takes a few days to optimize and start killing it.

Any advice when it comes to email marketing? Best apps to use for Shopify?


Any way to scrape my past customer’s emails from Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, etc.?

Whats the way way to go with suppliers nowadays? starting out is it more viable to use suppliers like ali express/ali baba? is it better to use domestic suppliers? Whats the best route to begin and what should the ultimate goal be as far as sourcing
