If you ask ChatGPT what a “good” TPT conversion rate is, it’ll say:3% to 5% is average. 8% is excellent. I analyzed 50,357 real TPT products worth $40 million, and guess what? The actual average conversion rate is 9.9% Now here’s the twist: 📈 A “good” conversion rate depends on two things: For example:• Under 100 views…
