    [MEGA THREAD] How To Build A Successful E-commerce Brand During A Global Pandemic. Step By Step Guide...

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    How do you decide what TOF audiences to keep? Sure, one might have higher CTR and lower CPLV than others, but how do you know which TOF audience the person who finally converts at BOF is from? E.g. if I have audience A and audience B, audience A has $0.10 CPLV whereas audience B is $0.30 CPLV...

    Hi Andy, What is your process when doing a biweekly ad account update? I have started working at an agency and I feel like what I've been taught is not enough. I don't feel confident at all. If conversions are steady or improving then everything is all smiles and I can happily tell the...

    Thanks for the reply. It's so crap how inflexible Google is but I guess the main reason is really just how mammoth the operation behind the scenes is. I guess it's easy for me to think 'why can't I just flick between campaign goals.' This thread is interesting: View...

    Hi Andy, Thanks so much for all your contributions on this forum about ad words, very much appreciated. I am working with an ecommerce shop whose campaigns are all set to maximise conversions. Overall, their main search campaign wins 20% impression share, losing almost 70% to rank. I looked...

    A Google Ads Lead-Gen Project

    EXECUTION 
    Hi Andy, thanks for the vids. In the first one it showed <10% exact matches and you said you’re currently using broad match modified. Is the strategy to start wide and capture lots of search terms and then group similar ones into an ad group and serve specific ads/copy? What’s your general %...

    @Xeon The way I’ve interpreted your 2 options: Do I start a business based on CENTS or do I start a business based on N? One option has 5 benefits whereas the other has 1... haha. Anyway I think you generally start with a need. Then you see how well it naturally meets the other commandments...

    Edit: I called a few government bodies, custom brokers and clarified with my supplier today and found out the following: - Supplier will deliver door to door via sea freight - Upon arrival, their agent will pay duties/tax and clear customs on my behalf - They will contact me to authorise them...

    Hi Walter, Thanks for the reply. My question is then let’s say we didn’t go through trade assurance, therefore the supplier wouldn’t have needed to fill out the order and I wouldn’t have had the chance to see that they’ve messed up the product details. What other information could I rely on...

    Thanks Walter. Now I'm encountering the next weird thing... I'm ordering samples with the 2 factories and on each separate trade assurance order they draft, they put the incorrect Product Details. For example I've ordered balloon A, B, C and D. They've put listings for balloon E, F, G and H...

    Thanks Walter. I will try to get the measurements and weight. The other thing I forgot to mention about the second option was that they said it’s $800 for 200kgs by TNT express. They then told me the cheaper option was $720 but could take 40-50 days to send, so I assume it’s by sea. I just...

    Hi all, I am in talks with two Chinese factories and almost ready to place orders for two separate products. One factory has quoted me $278 usd shipping door to door to Australia. Roughly 31kg and dimensions are 52*36*32cm. The second factory has quoted me $800 usd shipping door to door to...

    Hi ddall, congratulations on your success. Early on you said that you wanted to ship directly from china to an fba prep company- I assume you have done this already. Do you have one to recommend? And do you make use their inspection service? Thanks

    Hello biophase, thanks for taking the time to do this AMA. Have gained a lot insights from reading you and everybody else's discussions. Just wanted to clarify the process for ordering custom samples based on what you have said: From the above this is my understanding: -get generic product...
