How can I boost my sales on a new online store?

Product Development & Sourcing

Topic summary

New Shopify dropshipping store targeting India sees 1–2 sales on day 1 of Facebook ad tests, then no sales on day 2 across 8–9 products; causes unclear (ads, site speed, or product pages). OP requests guidance to increase sales.

Suggested actions:

  • Optimize Facebook campaigns (targeting, creatives, audiences); also test Google Shopping/Ads, noted as often higher-converting and lower maintenance once set up.
  • Improve site performance and product pages (faster load, high‑quality images, persuasive descriptions, clear pricing).
  • Build trust with reviews/testimonials.
  • Analyze analytics to identify drop‑offs and opportunities.
  • Explore tools; one reply recommends Commerce Inspector for competitor/product research.
  • Add automation-driven growth: launch an affiliate program (referrals/backlinks), expand to marketplaces that sync orders to Shopify, and set up automated email flows to retarget and cross‑sell (e.g., abandoned carts).

Key terms: dropshipping = selling without holding inventory; retargeting = re‑engaging past visitors; Google Shopping = product listing ads on Google search.

Status: No resolution yet. Next steps are to experiment with new channels, improve speed and pages, and implement automation while monitoring results.
