Odd Negative Relationship

Now and then in this blog I have written about how difficult it is to get Natural Scratch products in front of people who need them for their cats.

As an experiment, a few months ago I bought some sponsored listings on Google.

I'm bummed that they didn't seem to help at all.  I'm not blaming Google.  I wish I knew what the problem was.

About a week ago I suspended the sponsored links.  Several days later I had an uptick in sales that is making this week shape up to be the best I've had in many months.

It's just a nutty coincidence...
