Ok lol but that's not what I asked. And it's really hard to know if promoted works great, or if all your normal sales are now just promoted. Me?

90% of my listing impressions are promoted. So I have no idea if I'm getting extra sales or not, or I'm just paying extra for normal sales. And I don't have the balls to get rid of promoted.

Once i get sales, i always disable the promoted listing feature.
There is no drastic change on the number of sales made during that week.
Paying 5-10% ads fee just to be on top is just crazy. What I do is just adjust the pricing a little bit. Buyers always look for cheap, that's what i noticed.

he is still not getting his answer.
can you still show a profit after paying fees on top of fees?

depends on which book is popular that week or month, but promoted listing something not work when the advised % is 45%, im not gonna give 50% away from profits for a sale, even tho its digital and cost 0 for me.
Crazy that people set it to 45% just to get that sale.

I do 6%. 7% at the highest. But my question is, what percentage of peoples impressions are coming from promoted listings versus organic.

[james13v]

come on guys. Help me out here. I just need to understand what's happening with other peoples accounts.

My sales are down 40%, while at the same time, my sales from promoted are increasing, and is getting to the point where 80% of my sales are from promoted.

Doesn't promoted listing put you at the top of search also? In that case its unbeatable exposure for a small fee..
