Hilarious.
I wouldn’t say crushing it, but I’m getting $0.7 conversions on fb that turn avg $100 sale on ecommerce at the moment.
Instagram ads inside of fb are also great converters (but more pricey)
Fb still cheaper than adwords.
Automateads.com is ridiculous!!
What you are forgetting is that these elements (email list, SM following, other traffic sources) can increase the perceived value of your company if you intend to sell it. If Amazon is your only traffic source it can scare away potential investors. For cashflow reasons it doesn’t make sense, but for maximizing the value of your asset it certainly does.
