A practical sequence

  1. Set a clear objective.
  2. Confirm buyability, inventory, approvals, listing and compliance.
  3. Prepare pricing and a downside ad budget.
  4. Define daily or weekly indicators for sessions, conversion, spend, stock cover and account health.
  5. Set stop, fix and scale thresholds.
  6. Review weekly and isolate traffic, conversion, price, stock and cost effects.

Set a spend ceiling and daily stock review. Pause campaigns when inventory is unavailable or the page has a blocking defect.
