The story

The pain

We're pouring money into ads and getting plenty of clicks, but our stores just won't convert. After months of testing products, tweaking landing pages, and burning through ad spend, we still can't get consistent sales. It feels like we're hitting a wall—our first sale, if it comes at all, only arrives after hundreds of dollars in ad costs.

I have been doing dropshipping for almost a year and I have launched 7 products in total. Only 2 products have managed to make sales for me. In last two months, I launched three products. One of them made me four sales, but eventually it failed. Because after those four sales for some reason it just stopped.
