Profit as of 9/15/2016 @ 16:31 -26.07
Profit Goal: $4250/month
I reduced the profit goal to match the one I did a review of a few days ago… the one that sold at auction. I’m following the same business model. They achieved in in less than 8 or 9 months. You can see that below:

This is Day Two of my journey to making my Pet supplies store profitable in 14 days.

Summary (the past 24 Hours)
- I fixed the Google Analytics code… it is finally showing statistics on the site.
- Added an exit popup so when people leave the store they are presented with a 35% off coupon. (free for 14 days then 9.99/month)
- Added a Coupon Pop In so if people like the page on Facebook – they get a coupon code. (free for 14 days then 9.99/month)
- Added a Flash Sale on Facebook for 2.24/day that targets 500-1200 pet lovers focusing on certain Facebook pages. I narrowed it down to 4 pages with people located in Columbus and Huntington. I know, very specific.
- Created a Facebook Shop, but you have to pay in advance and I didn’t want to spend the money right now. It’s the only Storeya app that requires pre-payment.
I’m thinking that I am not allocating enough money to this project. I would NEVER expect to open a brick and mortar pet store with less than $50. By the time I paid rent, deposits, utilities, supplies, inventory, I would have around $4000 to $5000 invested. I had about that much invested in my thrift shop to start off with. So I think $1K would be a reasonable amount to start with… mainly for a marketing budget. I can build the shop myself… so that saves a tremendous amount of time and money. I can also (not sure how easily) convert the shop to another shopping platform hosted on WordPress. All of Storya’s apps are transferable to that platform as well. For now though I am going to stick with the original plan, at least for a few days.
Now for the numbers. First I want to give a run down of the activity that’s happened, based on the campaign that was run.
Below are the current campaigns I have running:
