In this video I’m going to set up a complete Shopify store in just four minutes seriously just four minutes I’m gonna have a little timer down over here we’re gonna count it down now at the end after I’m done setting up the store. So basically in four minutes of a usable store but after that we’re gonna spend a little bit of time doing an overview of Shopify and showing you how you can enhance your store because it’s one thing to have a store that works it’s another thing to have a store that people want to buy from but this is the amazing thing and this is why I promote Shopify and I love Shopify is it. So easy to use literally what other platform can you set up a store in just four minutes. So let’s get started with that I obviously I have an offer as well on Shopify if you’re interested in Java file I’ll talk about later in the video but let’s get started and let’s set up a Shopify store in just four minutes the first step if you want to start an online store you can go to effectiveecommerce.com Shopify this whole if you go to this link it’s my link it’ll give you a free -day trial of Shopify plus have used my link to sign up I will give you a free -minute one-on-one consultation of course you can just go to Shopify calm if you don’t want to do that. So I’m gonna go here the link is also up in this right-hand corner if you want to take advantage of that -day free trial plus a -minute consultation. So once you get here let’s start the timer you’re gonna enter your email. So I’m just going to enter it’s gonna ask you some different stuff just this stuff isn’t that important. So I’m gonna put performance nut butter store create your store all right. So sit tight while they’re creating the store. So the nothing you can really do right now it’s just a waiting game let’s see yeah okay stores ready to go they just gonna ask for a few more information this isn’t important you can put whatever you want I’m just gonna choose Amazon next and this stuff is important I’ll put my name oops and I’ll blur this part out or I can just make up some stuff I’ll write enter my store. So this takes a second boom we have a store. So not quite done yet we’re gonna still have to create our first product which is what I recommend doing first. So let’s go add product and my first product is obviously gonna be performance nut butter and I’m just gonna copy over all this data from the Kickstarter page. So this doesn’t count in my time because it’s it’s just I already had this information. So it’s pretty easy to do. So let me just show you and this is probably the longest part of setting up your store if you don’t already have this information I’d recommend just sitting down and writing down whatever I have a lot of information as you can see but you don’t need that much you can have it a lot shorter and I’ll show you later some ideas in this video on what you can do. So let’s go ahead and I’ll upload an image is well of it here I will do this as an image for the price I’m gonna say it is able it is $. And I always like doing a compare at price because the $. is the non-sale price we’ll go over later in this video this entire product page I just want to hurry up and get this done wait I know that that is and you can leave this blank if you if you’re not sure or just weigh your items I know it’s about  ounces SKU you can leave that blank as well don’t track inventory you can leave all this blank don’t worry about any of this now this isn’t the optimal SEO but we can go over that later. So let’s go ahead and click Save product alright from here let’s click on online store. So let’s see what our store actually looks like. So right now this is been click here view this theme it comes up in a new tab right there. So this is what the product looks like and basically the stores ready to go right now and now it doesn’t look great I’ll show you how to make it look better but it works right now somebody could technically by now there’s only one step they have to click checkout and the current plan is not working. So we’d have to pick a plan let’s pick a plan I recommend starting with the $ a month plan and there’s a lot of different reasons but it’s basically that’s all you need to know. So at this point I’m gonna pause it and fill in all this information and then come back in just a second all right at this point your store has been verified and it’s a working store. So let me show you what this store looks like now it’s not a very pretty store in just a second I’ll show you how to make this look a little bit better but let’s let’s go through it Add to Cart checkout I know you’re thinking at this point yeah it’s a working store but it’s a piece of crap let’s make it look good. So and this is once again let’s see how fast we can make it look decent. So the first thing we’re gonna do I’m gonna stick with this debut theme now you can look and you can custo you can look at either customizing the theme which we’ll do in a second or explore other free themes. So they have a bunch of different themes and one of these might be better for you that’s really up to you but first thing we’ll do let’s click customize theme and this will all make sense in a second. So let’s start out with the well. So the header the first thing I would do here is instead upload an image now I have a logo image and let’s say I think that’s a lot that a little too small. So let’s say  should be good yeah that looks better now let’s go down Save okay go back from the header now image with text overlay. So that’s this part right here I’m going to say instead of image with text overlay we could say mm let me think about this. So for this part let’s say get performance nut butter and this is once again just a rough version of the website you can go to performance nut butter com to see the current version and it might look just like this who knows I I do that sometimes where it’s pretty much the same it takes a while for me to iterate basically I’m a huge fan if you’re thinking about starting an online store highly recommend just putting something up there and I know it’s scary I started my first online store four years ago and it was scared you spend $ a month but I look at it as a tax a lazy tax I’m willing to spend that $ a month to light a fire under my butt and that gets me working on it that gets me continuing to go towards my goal of having an online store. So put up something basic and then continue to iterate in fact my site my main site pee dance or calm I’ll show you really quick since we’re here this banner I put up just as a quick banner because I needed something to do and it’s pretty bad the whole website’s not great but it converts really well and it’s I’ve done over a million dollars in revenue with this site well well over a million dollars in revenue at that site and that is over the course of four years last year we did about six hundred thousand dollars anyways let’s get back to this my point being just put something up and use that twenty nine dollars a month payment that you have as fuel to continue to iterate and make your website better. So let’s go to upload an image I’m going to use this one and this is something I recommend doing it I’ll get more in-depth into this in a future video and I probably should have done it for this as well but name your JPEGs with keywords. So paleo keto healthy fat is those are all keywords of mine and I might want to do you know something a little bit more descriptive like this one performance nut butter with box and pouch that’s not bad either but anyway. So I’m getting on a tangent here let’s go back and let’s make this website look pretty. So that’s uploading and while that’s uploading go and click Save – okay now we go back let’s go to image with text and. So that’s this image down here now the image I decided to use was this image because I think it looked good and I decided to say basically once again something pretty plain I’m just gonna say macadamia and then I can say something like the on-the-go snack once again not great. So this image slide down here I’m gonna go ahead and save it not great but it works it gets the point across and if they want more information they can click on it in fact I think I don’t know if there’s a way to I’ll look later if there’s a way to link an image and I recommend going back and adding all this image alt text once again this is a separate video this is all about search engine optimization right now we’re just focusing on the basics. So let’s go down this slideshow at the bottom now I don’t want that that’s just extra work right now that I don’t want to deal with. So I just click that delete button one more time I’ll just show you what it looks like it’s just this delete button right here but I don’t I don’t want to delete this section. So you can delete the sections you don’t want and if you have any questions on that please let me know. So okay. So that looks pretty decent now one thing is I don’t like the fact that it says home and catalog I want it to say home and get performance nut butter or something like that. So people know when they click on here let me show you what happens right now when they click on there it takes them to this page I don’t want that I want it to just take them to this page right here and I’m gonna show you in a second here how to change that let’s go back to themes pages. So we can go to navigation and this is the main menu. So let’s go to main menu and instead of catalog I’m gonna say get reformed and nut butter and then instead of all products we’re just gonna go product select the product performance nut butter save menu now I don’t just want it to say let’s see if I can I don’t want it just to say let’s do a refresh just to say home and get performance nut butter I want them to be in about us section as well and the way you would do that is you add a menu item and you’d add a page but right now we don’t have any pages. So we need to create a page. So we’ll go to pages add page and for the title I recommend doing something with your keywords. So I’m gonna say about performance and nut butter the paleo keto vegan a healthy fat snack and on top of that I’m going to put this is the description. So performance nut butters delicious macadamia coconut cashew blended nut butter that contains just a hint of Himalayan sea salt performance no butter was found about Travis Mariana who tells the story of performance nut butter and how it started in the video above as you can tell I’m gonna add a video and this is a video once again from my Kickstarter. So I can insert a video by clicking that button then just paste in your embed code which you can get I’m using Vimeo you can get it from Vimeo you can get it from YouTube as well if you want to use a free option Vimeo looks a little bit nicer but hey YouTube’s free if you’re not sure which one to do just go with YouTube cuz it’s free now here’s another point I want to make. So first off let me save this I really think everybody’s about us everyone’s about us page should have a video now if you don’t have a video first off you have one of two options either just take out your iPhone try to make some good lighting or go outside and talk about you talk about the product in fact that’s what I recommend doing but if you don’t want to be on video at least have a picture of you in your family or you next to one of your items people don’t want to buy from big names they want to buy from company they want to buy from people they don’t want to buy from no-name companies. So that’s another thing I highly recommend doing is that getting a video or a picture in your About Us page. So let’s actually go back to pages. So now you can see about performance nut butter Papa and I can always delete this page if I need to. So I’m gonna click view just to see what it looks like about performance not butter the Paleo keto vegan a healthy fat snack that looks great I mean it’s it could be a little bit better but for now that’s not bad what I will do in the future is write more because some people don’t want to watch the videos some people just want to read it’s a  it’s almost a  minute long video I say a lot in there and basically I can just get someone to write or write it myself everything that I say in a nice format. So people could read it and probably throw in some images the goal is on the baddest page to really capture them and let them know that they’re supporting me they’re not support it’s not like there’s money’s going to some big no-name company they’re supporting a young entrepreneur that’s really trying to make the world a better place. So that being said I still I want the link up here because I want people to get to know about me and the company is easily as possible. So we’re gonna go back to navigation and go to main menu and we’re gonna click add menu item about us just do about us you can say any kind of things you want but for now that’s fine select page and about performance nut butter very easy Shopify makes everything. So easy and that’s why I recommend it I once again you can sign up using my link it’s up here or go to Effective Ecommerce.com and if you click up here to sign up to Shopify using my link I’ll give you a free one-on-one consulting session plus you get a -day free trial of Shopify and I do get a little bit of a kickback from Shopify but to be honest with you I get a little bit of a kickback from every single platform out there I choose Shopify and I choose to represent Shopify because I think it’s the best in fact some of the other ones I won’t name would give me more money in fact one of them would give me $ just for sending one offer over there but I think that it’s crap I think that Shopify by far is the way to go. So that’s why I recommend it let me just spend a little bit of time quickly showing you some other stuff if you’re curious but once you get launched I have a SEP 22nd video and I’ll do a part to video that really goes in depth to all this but let’s go over this menu here. So orders once you get launched and you don’t need to worry about this yet these were all your orders are gonna be the first step is if you don’t have a website just get the website up you don’t need to learn all this but I’ll give you an overview. So you feel comfortable all the orders will be here peoples shipping information will be there for you people’s name all the information you need will be there abandoned checkouts will be very important as well you can see right here. So I gave them my email in the sample checkout I did earlier but I didn’t actually buy something. So what you can do is you can actually send a follow-up email and say hey Travis Marziani you didn’t buy from us what went wrong. So this is a very powerful tool that a lot of other platforms do not offer products. So a good thing about this is you can see all the products. So obviously I just have one product currently but if you have more you can do that it even has inventory control and once again I’m not using this feature yet gift cards collections is something we did not talk about that’ll be for a future video but collections are basically like categories you can make a collection of a bunch of different products and this has a lot of useful features not important for now customers. So this is the one customer we have zero orders eventually this will be full of every single person that’s ever bought from you and you know B it’ll be amazing my other might be dancewear site we have I don’t know fifteen thousand customers some crazy amount of customers and it’s really good because you can see all the data here and you can see these people spent over a thousand dollars I want to treat them really well or this person ordered twice but stopped ordering what happened. So this will eventually be full and I’ll just show you a little preview with this what looks like. So it’s got my name it’s got my information my address email reports another useful tool this is a more advanced feature you can do discounts you can create discount codes I will go over this in a future video as well but the main thing I want to focus on for this video is look how quickly you can make a beautiful simple ecommerce site again let’s look one more time at my store and that’s not bad this took me ten minutes to do and it’s not bad at all obviously it’ll probably take you of just a little hint longer because you have to come up with the wording but don’t sweat even if it’s just a few sentences that you just think of off the top of your head write that down put something up that is the most important step to creating an online store is taking that first little step. So if you want to support performance nut butter go to performance nut butter calm try it out it’s delicious it’s a macadamia coconut cashew blended nut butter but if you are just looking to start an online store you can click up here or go to effectiveecommerce.com Shopify to get the free -day trial plus a free one-on-one session when you use my link last but not least I have a ecommerce starter pack that I highly recommend you get it is it’s the Ecommerce success pack as well I’ve changed the names a few times but the Ecommerce success pack you can click up here and you go to my email or sign up for the email offer and I will send you a checklist and this is the most valuable thing I think for starting an online store is a checklist of everything you need to do to start your online store and it’s things that you probably haven’t even thought of like one of the things we didn’t go over that’s very important to do and if you’re of seasoned veteran of Ecommerce you’ll know this but if not you probably won’t is well one your SEO like look at this tighter and metal Meta Description what is that I’ll explain it to you in future videos or the Ecommerce success pack but two on the checklist for things like Google Analytics and Facebook pixel make sure you install this right away as soon as you launch your store install Google Analytics and Google Analytics is the best free tool out there it’s an insanely powerful tool that Google gives away for free and Google’s usually not always the nicest to ecommerce store owners but this is one of the tools that is amazing.
