Journey Day 2. Still Don't know what I'm doing with Facebook Ads.
I decided to take the plunge and attempt this.
What I've done so far.
Set Up:
I made a online store with wordpress, woocommerce, and paypal.
Set Up a Homepage, Giveaway page, shop page.
Giveaway has 4 Free + Shipping offers
Shop with $10 offers.
Shipping 9.95 throughout the store.
Products cost around $1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Facebook:
I've read/watched through a lot of material on this, but not really sure which one was best. I decided with going with conversion focused. With the conversion action being Add to Cart.

I have 3 campaigns for 3 different interests all using the same published post.
Each campaign has 2 ad-sets each covering 8 year gap. With each ad set given $5/day.
So in total 6 ads. ($30 daily limit) (Forgive my jargon on the terminology of ads and campaigns).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results over 8 hours:
41 Conversions
5 page likes
29 Post Engagements
12 Website Clicks
1 Sale

My Thoughts
-FB Ad Analysis: I have no idea what I'm doing.
Not exactly what stats I looking for in terms of CPC, CPM, CTR, and other things
My gist of it is, I'm looking for low cpc, high ctr.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update
First Day Spent 17.70
No other sales other than the one mentioned earlier.
This first sale came from Interest A.
-----------------------------
2nd Day 11.24 (so far)
Cut It Down to 3 Ads.
From top to bottom.
1st Ad = Interest A.
2nd/3rd Ad = Interest B.

1 Sale.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
Thoughts: Happy that I got a sale., Realized that I'm still confused on how to take in these results.Again, I know the goal is to get a low cpc, high ctr. I'm also not sure if the ads are still stabilizing, explaining the somewhat high costs. I might just cut one of these ads (most likely).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New Questions/Problems.

This new Sale on the 2nd day made me aware of a problem. Paypal isn't redirecting back to my website thank you page. So the pixel didn't fire. Apparently this might be a problem for people who pay without a paypal account through paypal. If anyone know of a way to track these paypal purchases with facebook pixel that would be incredibly helpful. The woocommerce struggle too real.

Thanks for reading

Surely by now you have decided what to do? What was your decision?
