“What about Shipping times?”
As long as you’re upfront with customers regarding shipping times, most will still purchase.
I am seeing about 7-11 days with my products right now.
Just don’t promise 3 day shipping and they get their product in two weeks.

What metrics should I be looking at in my Facebook Ads?
ROAS.
If your ROAS is above your break even roas, that means you’re profitable. If its under your break even roas, you’re not profitable.
Everyone gets caught up in other metrics that dont matter as long as ROAS is good.
