Overview Of Our Ads This Month

FOCUS: Testing UnTemplated Ads
This month we tested several new ads, both posts (with images and text) and stories (15-45 second video ads). The testing phase can be difficult to endure because there's a lot of fluctuation in costs from day to day before a new ad has optimized. Some of our ads perform so poorly they NEEDED to be turned off, some ads performed so well we could hardly believe it, and others fell somewhere in the middle.
The UnTemplated Campaign we tested the new ads in drives traffic directly to a sales page to promote our low-ticket ($49) UnTemplated course, with an Automation Guide ($7) order bump and an Ads Magic ($67/month) upsell.
OBJECTIVE:
The goal of these ads were to drive traffic to our UnTemplated sales pages to purchase for $49, then to the one click upsell for $67/month and then send all the new buyers through our evergreen email funnel for our high-ticket Launch program. The strategy is to cover the cost of ads with the initial small product purchase so that any sales after that is pure profit.
UPSELL:
This month, our Ads Magic upsell converted at 13% and 5% of all new UnTemplated students purchased our Signature program, Launch.
THIS MONTH'S RESULTS:
We paid around $52 for each new UnTemplated purchase. Since 13% of those people also purchased Ads Magic, we made $60 on average for an $8 profit from each sale on day one. Then, 5% of UnTemplated students also purchased Launch (starting at $2,500) after going through our funnel and 90% of the Ads Magic subscribers will stay subscribed.
