The old approaches to the ads platforms and their algorithms don’t work anymore. And many ad accounts and Shopify businesses are struggling with return on ad spend (ROAS) and profits.

Our system took millions of dollars in ad spend and testing to create, working with more than 300 ad accounts since 2012. It’s something we’ve iterated on multiple times, completely tearing down our ad department and rebuilding it again and again as times changed.

We start by reverse engineering winning creatives. Then combine user generated content and rapid creative testing in Meta to get profitable and scaleable campaigns. From only $1499 USD per month cancel anytime.

When possible we run testing with DCT (Dynamic Creative Testing) and winning campaigns are scaled with Advantage+.

How long will it take to be profitable?
How long will it take to be profitable?

There are 4 determining factors that influence time to profitability when it comes to PPC. As a rule of thumb, it takes 3 months to find and optimize profitable campaigns. This can be faster if you check all these boxes.


i. How much organic traffic you get

If you have high-quality traffic from SEO then it is likely you can be profitable from PPC. High-quality organic traffic from Google is driven by keywords that are relevant to your brand and products and have buying intent. ‘Mens boat shoes’ has buying intent, ‘how to wear boat shoes’ has information intent and will convert lower.

ii. Conversion rates

Your conversion rates will affect what percentage of visitors buy from you, and therefore the ROI of your ad campaigns. The average ecommerce conversion rate is around 2.5%. But averages lie, these averages don’t look at location, traffic channels or seasonal skews. Most Shopify stores have around 1% conversion rate, so build this into your expectations.

iii. Product/market fit

Your products need to have the correct positioning in your market, industry or niche and appeal to your typical customer. You can have a great product and still struggle to sell it to the wrong person with the wrong value proposition.

iv. Email list size

We upload your past historic customer email list into Facebook to make lookalike audiences. A lookalike audience is a group of people that match the traits of your past customers and are likely to spend money with you. To have an effective lookalike audience to need to upload at least 300 past customer emails..
