316. How Much Should I Budget For Ads?
In this episode of the Dropship Podcast, we dive into the nitty-gritty of setting a budget for Google Shopping ads when starting your dropshipping business. We recommend starting with around $30 a day, which is about $900 a month, to get enough impressions and clicks. We also talk about the importance of being patient and willing to take some risks, as initial ad spend might not immediately translate into profit. The key takeaway? Start small, focus on acquiring customers, and build momentum over time. Don’t stress about immediate profits—think long-term growth!
