Hey guys, Just got my first sale! 🎉 It came after spending $174 and honestly it's been a bit of a journey. I originally paused the campaign after the first couple of days because I started panicking. Then after following @Tulia's guidance and Chris team I decided to relaunch it instead of giving up. I just want to say thank you to everyone in this group who took the time to help me throughout the process. I really appreciate it. A few things I learned: - Don't panic when things don't work straight away. - Trust the process and give the campaign time. - Like Chris always says, having a good feed makes a huge difference because it makes optimisation much easier. For anyone wondering about the numbers - Market: USA (I switched from the UK) - Niche: Home Decor - Ad Spend: $174 - Sales: 1 ($760.20) This is only the first week, so I'm definitely not stopping here. The next focus is improving cash flow and managing the financial side so I can scale properly. I'll keep you guys updated as things progress. Thanks again everyone! 🚀

I'm noticing my ads aren't tracking about 33% of my conversions. Do you know what could be the issue and how does this affect learning? Screenshot attached of something I noticed. And should I download Item ID's from the screenshot?

hey everyone, i have an old gmc which i recently started running again, performance isnt bad revenue wise, but insanely high cpc (4$+). i was told to go for a domain switch, what would be the best/safest way to do this?

Hey everyone, I need some advice on my home decor store. Here is what I’ve done and my results so far: - The Setup: I have 120 products active. I run PMax campaigns targeting the shopping feed only. (Setup learned from this community) - US Market: Ran for 35+ days. Spent about $900 but only got 4 sales. CPC was way too high (avg. $2.89) and conversion was low, so I turned it off 3 days ago. - My Products: My images, titles, and listings are fully optimized and unique (i make sure to change all images and descriptions and verify reviews from suppliers to make sure it is a qulaity product). My price range is $30 to $250. maybe 20 items above $250 - $800 (large furniture) The Problem: I am not getting consistent results and my CPC is too high across the board. I suspect my $100–$250+ products might be eating up the ad budget and clicking away money without converting. Has anyone dealt with this wide of a price gap in a single PMax feed? How did you fix the high CPCs? Also, I heard about a possible wild fix: A buddy told me his agency contacts fixed a similar "shadow ban" high-CPC issue by simply doing a domain switch (like moving the site to a fresh, slightly different .com domain). They saw it drop CPCs back to normal across multiple ad accounts because it resets Google's trust score for the backend auction and the ad account resets as well. Has anyone here actually tried a domain switch to escape high CPCs? Does this sound like a real solution, or is it too risky for GMC suspensions?

Hey guys, We launched a new fashion store yesterday with a brand new GMC and a fresh Google Ads account. Got the first sale already on day 1. But the CPCs are crazy high. Our cheapest clicks are around $1.70 and many are between $2.50 – $4+. Is this normal for a completely new account in the fashion niche? How long does it usually take until the CPCs come down? We used an aged domain with no bad history, but we’ve never experienced CPCs this high with our other stores before. Would really appreciate any tips on how to lower the costs faster. Thanks already!
