What Made It Work

Aggressive Launch, Disciplined Scale-Back

Front-loaded PPC spend ($615 in first 15 days) to build ranking velocity, then cut spend by 50% as organic momentum took hold.

Organic-First Architecture

Listing optimization, keyword indexing, and review velocity turned early paid traffic into long-term organic rank — 74% of sales needed no ad spend.

Micro-Budget PPC

Total 35-day ad spend of $926 is remarkably low for an $18.8K launch. CPC held at $0.72–$0.73 through precise bid management.

Peak Velocity: 20–25 Units/Day

Daily sales peaked at 20–25 units during mid-January, demonstrating strong market fit and listing conversion.
