What CPM range should a brand new ad account expect on purchase campaigns? (US market, non-supplement niches)
About to launch my first Meta purchase campaigns from a brand new BM, ad account, pixel, everything. Targeting US market, women’s products (fashion and home/lifestyle categories, nothing supplement or health related).
I know CPM varies based on audience, competition, creative quality and a bunch of other factors, so I’m not looking for one magic number. Just trying to set realistic expectations.
A few things I’d love to hear from people who’ve been through the new account phase:
What CPM range did you see in your first week on a purchase campaign before you had any conversions on the pixel?
What did it settle to once you started getting sales, and roughly how many purchases did it take to get there?
Did your CPM drop gradually or was there a noticeable shift at some point?
Trying to plan my budget properly and want to know what “normal expensive” looks like for a new account versus “something is actually wrong.” Appreciate any real numbers from your own experience.
