Have you noticed it?

More and more physical stores are upping their online game. The ones that lag behind can find themselves struggling.

Why is this? Well, like it or not, shopping habits have changed.

Your brick-and-mortar store is your pride and joy. But no matter how popular it is, you can only reach a certain amount of people.

People’s lives have gotten busier. And that drives their desire for more convenience. Online shopping gives them not only convenience but the power to shop for the most excellent deals in a global market.

Shopify is one of the major players in the world of e-commerce. What’s great is that it’s idealized for sellers who are just getting started with an online store.

Starting afresh?

Whether you want to make a little extra money on the side or make it your full-time job, Shopify is the fastest way to get online and start selling.

In fact, I just timed it from start to finish and it took just 19 minutes to create a store, add products and hit the ‘go live’ button.

Granted… my 19-minute store wasn’t perfect, and I would spend much longer tweaking it. But, it shows just how straightforward the process is.

But first…

Why Shopify?

  • You don’t need to know a single line of web code – Shopify walks you through the entire process.
  • Shopify lets you add your own domain name (e.g. www.my-store.com), hosts the store for you and maintains the complicated ‘back end’.
  • Designing your store is easy, you can choose from 100 existing themes and tweak them to your liking.
  • Shopify processes manage and track all your orders and payments, letting you focus on the business.
