It depends on what you are selling. I would only start with ads if it is a brand new product with not much competition. For products such as clothing I would recommend building your social media first. And like I said if you are just starting out it’s likely that you have little or no advertising budget so you wouldn’t be getting many sales either way. I’m sure you can make both ways work. This is just my opinion.
