Course Description

This course is different than most Shopify courses available. Yes, like most courses, I will get you up and running fast with the absolute basics, as well as guidance, tips, and tricks for the more advanced features and settings.

AND,

I'll show you how I use these skills (building e-commerce websites) to create high-value websites for my clients and how I charge them to do it. Not only that, you can also make additional income just off of referrals as an affiliate with the Shopify Partners program.

Even if you have no intention of freelancing and you just want to build your own online store, no problem! I'll show you everything you need to know to start your journey with e-commerce.

I have over 20 years experience designing with Photoshop, and over 12 years of experience in the creative arts industry building websites and e-commerce platforms, and I have over 100,000 students enrolled across all of my courses. Learning how I build my e-commerce websites for clients was a topic that came up frequently in student questions, and I want to show you my exact process along the way.

I used to only use WooCommerce to build my e-commerce sites on WordPress, but I've been extremely impressed with Shopify and my clients have had good luck with the platform as well. I highly recommend Shopify and I know you're going to love it!

If you see topics that you would like added to this course, or features that need updated then please let me know! I'm building my own personal e-commerce website alongside of this course, and I'll be showing you (coming soon) how I design my apparel and setup my dropshipping. Stay tuned for more!

Student Reviews

Derrick did a great job in explaining Shopify so well for a beginner like me!! - Grace De Guzman

Thank you Derrick for this course, it did save me tons of hours trying to figure it out how to build an E-commerce website. I started other course for WP but it didn't work as it was taking a lot of time and I just wanted to build my online store fast and this course is really easy to understand and follow along. Thank you once again - Vilmar Borges

Thanks, Derrick! Well Done! To all beginners out there, this highly recommended. - Brian C. Corpuz

great course with tremendous tools and information related to building and running Shopify.

By Michelle Sawyer on 6/14/2020

Course did not provide information that I was expecting. At times it appeared that the instructor was promoting his brand and websites more than anything. Did not meet my expectations.

By Amarjit Singh Jutla on 4/22/2020

Interesting and informative, more geared towards graphic design coverage. Some stuff was covered really fast. I thought the Dr Greg project would be shown as example to completion. Conversion with Dr Greg was long but is useful to think about how to interact with an actual client. I enjoyed this course.

By John Roll Biñalizo on 12/11/2019

Thank you for this course, I would like to let you know that I will use this course to add Shopify on my portfolio as a freelancer, I have learned a lot and will continue to learn more. more power! I would love to someday setup my own shopify store too (print-on-demand)maybe.hehe

One of the best course to learn shopify and earn. I would recommend everyone to take this course who is interested to earn using shopify .

By Kunhi Monu L on 10/12/2019

Very impressive course. But Photoshop Design videos really makes no sense for the illiterate photoshop guy and should have been removed and should have not mixed with the course otherwise its good enjoyable course. well done Derrick
