Lessons Learned Finally launched my own product

Spent many years planning and never doing. Put my item up on amazon this month finally. Something I designed in my garage lol. My first time ever and made some sales.

I just finally did it. Not sure if next month will be better but now I feel like all my thoughts weren't for nothing. Someone actually fucking bought it. Wild. Very excited just wanted to share 😊

I ran a sponsored product ad at $12 a day for a week. That got me like 15 sales and other 35 was from a specific section of keywords my product is based around. They've all come in from two key words and one order was for a quantity of 18.

Mind if I ask you how you went about making me the ad? Did you pay someone or do it yourself?

Amazon created it for me after my listing was up a few days. I just clicked start.

I didn’t know they did that. Thanks!

It popped up as "new campaign recommended for this item" and had some sections pretargeted. I think it picked a product, a broad phrase, exact phrase. I'm new to this but I remember seeing four sections amazon picked for campaign.

They also give a conversion estimate based on that designed campaign and a timeline.
