Frequently Asked Questions
Quick Answers
What is a good ROAS for a DTF shop?
In 2026, a Blended ROAS over 2.5 is excellent for DTF transfer shops selling direct-to-garment or film transfers. This accounts for an average CPA of $30-$45 and Average Order Value of $80-$120.
How to use AI for Meta Ads in print shops?
Using the official Meta Ads MCP server, print shops securely connect ChatGPT or Claude to their Ads Manager. This allows AI agents to read live CTR, CPA, and Spend metrics to diagnose fatigue and suggest new angles.
Should I boost posts or run conversion campaigns?
Boosted posts optimize for engagement (likes, comments), not revenue. DTF and apparel shops should exclusively run Sales (Conversion) campaigns optimized for Purchases to acquire actual paying customers.
Why is my Meta Ads CPM so high?
A high CPM (Cost Per 1,000 Impressions) typically means your creative isn't thumb-stopping, or you're targeting an overly narrow audience. Broadening the audience and testing high-contrast hooks reduces CPM.
