Calm Sheets

Analyzed Google Ads spend, CPC, funnel scroll depth, CTA behavior, and landing-page performance to identify unprofitable traffic patterns. · Tightened live Google Ads targeting with new campaign-level negatives, confirmed Flight Anxiety pause, set Fear of Flying to $20/day, and kept Night-Before Panicker at $50/day.

Rebuilt /flight/, /flight/fear-of-flying/, and /flight/anxiety/ around concise $34 paid-traffic messaging, early kit preview, demo tools, one-price checkout, FAQ, and final CTA. · Fixed landing page UX issues including spacing, misleading hero pills, checkout preservation, and funnel section tracking.

Restored Calm Sheets dashboard live-alert UI with tap-to-enable Web Audio visitor chime · Added active-purchase polling and generated cash-register alert when paid purchases increase

Fixed dashboard Purchases card showing lifetime totals regardless of 7d/30d/90d range toggle — fetchD1Metrics now accepts a 'since' date and applies WHERE created_at >= ? to the 4 purchase/refund queries (active purchases, revoked, refund requests, refunds confirmed). Both call sites updated (full dashboard render + /dashboard/api/metrics endpoint). · Removed redundant webhook_freshness health check that warned whenever the last D1 purchase was >14 days old. The stripe_d1_sync / orphaned_purchases check is the real signal — it queries Stripe directly and compares to D1 records. Cleared 33 stale webhook_freshness rows from production D1.

Audited Google Ads campaign and funnel screenshots; planned a concise paid-traffic rebuild for the highest-spend flight landing pages. · Rebuilt /flight/fear-of-flying/ and /flight/anxiety/ around immediate $34 offer clarity, early kit preview, demos, single checkout card, FAQ, and final CTA.
