Shopify is a great platform but if you’re watching this video you probably already know that in this video what we’re gonna do is 100% figure out which plan is right for you and I have an airtight formula we’re gonna go over all the different features we’re gonna take a breakdown of the pricing the features everything and we’re gonna figure out which of the different plans is right for you and like I said I have an airtight formula to figure out which plan will make the most sense. So by the end of this video you will know 100% which plan you should pick in this video we’re gonna compare the different Shopify plans and figure out the plan that is right for you by the end of this video not only will we go over all the different features the different plan has I’ll give you a formula that will 100% guarantee get you in the right plan also at the end of this video give you a special offer where you can sign up and get the obviously the 14-day free trial but on top of that a free one-on-one consultation with me to help you set up your store. So let’s get started.
There’s basic Shopify Shopify in advance Shopify and one of the questions I get all the time is which plan should I pick and the difference obviously here is the price but there’s some other things too like different credit card rates you can see different in-person rates as well though most people probably aren’t going to take advantage of that. So the next thing is you look at the number of staff accounts which probably doesn’t matter too much to most people. So this isn’t a feature will really look at too much but then we have obviously Shopify’s shipping discounts which once again is a feature that probably isn’t that important sure you do get a little bit of discounts at the higher level tiers but I don’t think that should be a determining factor next up we see that the difference between the basic plan and the Shopify plan is gift cards personal reports and abandoned cart recovery now gift cards and abandoned cart recovery are two things that are pretty valuable. So that will come in handy and. So just. So you know gift cards are obviously the ability to sell gift cards. So someone could buy a gift card give it to a friend and they could come to your site and purchase things for a lot of people gift cards probably isn’t something that is going to be a big seller for them.
When you’re a smaller size store then abandoned cart recovery though is something that I think is very powerful no matter what stage you’re at but I will say you can get add-on apps for abandoned cart recovery. So this add-on app you can get for free but to actually use the proper functionality it’s $29 a month. So $72 plus $29 is still cheaper than the $29. So if it’s just about features these the gift cards is a good feature abandoned cart recovery is a good feature professional reports is nice to have but it’s not something you really need to have when you’re a smaller store and all professional reports is it allows you to run basically a report that will show you what your best-selling item is what your best-selling SKUs are some other things like that things that you can kind of figure out if you really want to without running those reports but it is a valuable tool but I think when you’re first starting out not that valuable. So we have $10000 vs. $10000 those are the basic Shopify versus Shopify for most people $ the basic Shopify is going to be perfect now I do have a formula I will show you right now on to figure out should you go with basic Shopify or Shopify the next level of comparison is Shopify versus advanced Shopify because you really when you start a shop if I site most people should start with basic Shopify at a certain point you should upgrade to Shopify and then at the next point upgrade to advanced Shopify. So I don’t think anyone out there is trying to decide should they be in basic Shopify or advanced Shopify because there is a huge price difference. So when we look at the features you have advanced a report builder and third-party calculated shipping rates to things that aren’t really that big of a deal I think for most online stores out there you should probably offer flat rate shipping up to a certain price and then free shipping after that. So once again we’re gonna look at the features aren’t that much better between Shopify and advanced Shopify. So what it comes down to is looking at the numbers looking at how much money you will save on the different transaction fees right there. So let’s take a look at the numbers and come up with a formula that will specifically tell you the perfect tear for you. So basic Shopify is $ Shopify is $ in advance Shopify is $ and basic Shopify that’s not the only money they get from you they also get the transaction fee. So . percent compared to . percent compared to . percent. So this means for every time there’s a transaction Shopify is taking cents right off the top and then also a two point nine percent transaction fee or two point six or a . percent. So let’s take a look and compare those the difference between the basic Shopify in the Shopify plan is $ and a point three percent transaction for you we’re gonna Negatron is action just because it’s it’s the same for all the plans next up we have $ is the difference between the Shopify plan and the advanced Shopify plan and you save .%. So let’s use some math and figure out at what point should you be in all the different plans. So if we divide the difference $ by the the .% we get sixteen thousand six hundred sixty six dollars and cents. So we’ll explain in a second what that means and then the same thing if we take $ here that’s the difference between these two plans divided by the amount of money you’re saving and we get $,. So that’s the break-even point both for both of these on when you should switch plans. So basically for basic Shopify you should be in that plan from $ to approximately sixteen thousand six hundred sixty-five dollars. So if you’re doing this much amount per month in revenue you can you should be in basic Shopify assuming that you don’t give any value to the other features that they have obviously abandon cart is worth some money. So depending on how much that’s worth to you you might want to adjust this number and same thing with the gift cards that’s those are both worth some worth some money but if you’re making more than sixteen thousand six hundred sixty-five dollars you 100% need to switch to Shopify same thing here if you’re making between sixteen thousand six hundred sixty-five dollars and one hundred nine thousand nine hundred you should probably be in the Shopify plan if you’re making more than , dollars all the way up to about a million dollars you should be in advance Shopify now if you’re making more than a million dollars they have a more advanced package for you but if you’re making more than a million dollars probably not watching this is per month. So all these numbers are per month. So zero to sixteen thousand six hundred sixty-five dollars per month go ahead and go with basic Shopify then Shopify is this amount right here and then advanced Shopify is this amount right there per month. So like I said the abandoned cart does have some value and since it cost about fourteen dollars we would change these numbers. So the difference between basic Shopify plus the $ abandoned cart to Shopify is $. So if you do want abandoned cart which I highly recommend then basically if you make to $, you should be in basic Shopify if you make $, to $, you should be in Shopify and over $, you should be an advantage top-. So that’s the very basic plan. So here’s the numbers for you right here if you have the basic Shopify plan go ahead and if you if you make between zero dollars and sixteen thousand six hundred sixty-five dollars per month I’d recommend going with basic Shopify for most people in between that you got Shopify and then above the hundred seven thousand dollar mark you have advanced Shopify now as promised if you want to get your free -day trial of Shopify and get a free one-on-one consultation with me to help you set up your online store all you have to do is go to effective e-commerce comm slash Shopify and that will go ahead and take you to this page that will do it and anyone that use that use that link I will help them start with their online store.
