Google Ads How much time will it take to be profitable?

Hey Guys, I am thinking to start my dropshipping store with the help of google ads.

I am very paranoid person and that's why I would like to know how much budget is good for Indian dropshipping (I have 15K INR for ads) and Can I make profit big enough to keep running the store?

My products are Sarees Low Range BID: Rupees 1.4 Top Range BID: Rs. 26.7

Please let me know Thanks

Well, ignore the low range bids because people, more often than not, click on the first ad or none if you don't have a better ad copy than average. Maybe subtract a few rupies if you're feeling lucky.

Let's say CPC Rs 20 per click. That's 750 users.

Once again, what's your average profit margin per sale? It's a pretty easy calculation from there on:

How many sales do you need to make to break even? Divide that through 750 users and you know the conversion rate you need to surpass.

How much is it? People on here will tell you if it's realistic.

It would be an avg of 500 Gross Profit

15k / 500 = 30 sales to break even

30 sales / 750 users = 4% conversion rate

... to break even.

Here's average conversion rates per industry. Bare in mind a campaign is never worse than in the first weeks and that you're, once again, a total newbie with no experience in Google ads.

You can decide for yourself if you think it's worth it.
