Set a spending limit for your test and review whether the extra sales leave enough profit after fees and returns.
THE SOURCED NEWS
What sellers can change
Walmart’s Search Engine Marketing program runs Google Shopping ads for eligible Walmart.com offers. In its 5 November release notes, Walmart says sellers can now choose a strategy that aims to maximise conversion value or one that bids towards a target return on ad spend. The notice does not list a separate effective date.
The update also lets sellers add products by category and set automatic daily budget increases. That option can keep a campaign running after its original budget is used. Check the current settings in Seller Center before enabling it.
SELLERBUNDLE PRACTICAL ANALYSIS
SellerBundle: judge the test by what you keep
Start with a few products whose costs you know. Work out what remains after the item cost, marketplace fees, delivery and expected returns. That gives you a starting point for deciding how much you can afford to spend on ads per sale.
If you enable automatic increases, write down the maximum total spend you’re prepared to accept and choose when you’ll review the results. Compare ad spend and completed sales for the same period. A strong sales figure can still hide a loss if discounts or returns eat into the margin.
