U.S. Census Bureau · Q2 2026, released 18 Aug 2026 ↗Whether you sell kitchen appliances, home electronics or specialist equipment, your advertising should be judged on revenue and margin, not impressions.

Meta investor report · Q2 2026, published Jul 2026 ↗Research scope: figures refer to the U.S. market unless specified as worldwide. They describe market conditions or platform scale, not campaign conversion rates or Peter's client outcomes. Updated 19 October 2026.
Google and Meta can complement each other, but the right combination depends on your buyers, your offer and the conversion data we can reliably collect.
I would assess Google Search, Shopping and other suitable formats, build sensible product groups and search themes, and connect campaigns to specific inventory and margins. Google’s newer channel controls are worth reviewing as they roll out, but eligibility and settings must be checked in the live account.
Meta Ads can present useful product demonstrations, design benefits, seasonal offers and accessories. I would test creative variants and look for attributable purchases or useful micro-conversions rather than relying on likes.
Ecommerce experience
I have helped electronic appliance companies generate approximately US$100,000 in monthly appliance sales from advertising campaigns I set up and managed. This describes past client activity, not a guaranteed monthly outcome.

Review your market, sales process, website, existing ads and the outcomes that matter commercially.
Align intent, creative, landing pages, budget and measurement without promising instant results.
Revenue and ROAS need clean ecommerce conversion data. I would investigate the path from advert to product page, basket, checkout and confirmed purchase.
I can recommend website and content changes based on analytics and advertising data, as well as managing the campaigns themselves.
Yes. The right mix depends on product category, margin, market and available conversion data.
Yes. I regularly provide website content and analytics-led recommendations to improve conversion paths.
