Course Description
Why Use Shopify?
If you're interested in selling online, first of all, congratulations! It's a rewarding endeavor. In order to be successful, you need to do it right. I have used many different platforms for selling online and I have found that Shopify provides the most turn-key product to begin with. Sellers can have a store up and running in a matter of minutes (as I show in this course).
Not only is it quick to start, but Shopify provides countless tools to enhance your experience. All of them are easily installable.
What's inside the course?
I will show you how to:
- Set up a Shopify store
- Select an attractive niche to start with
- Find products that feed the desire of customers in those niches.
I will then guide you through the process of getting those products on a live store that you own, ready for the public to consume.
"How will I get traffic to my store?"
Funny you should ask. Facebook provides the most targeted and affordable advertising platform on the web. With their database, we are sure to find an audience that is eager to buy your products.
I will show you how to:
- Create advertising banners
- Building targeted audiences
- Create sales copy and launch your ad to hundreds of thousands of potential customers.

I want to start a Boutique but had no idea about how to start it. This class has been a tremendous help! Now I have confidence in stating my new business and notes to revert back to when needed. I am happy I found these udemy courses, they have been a much needed tool to help people become what ever it is that they want to become. Much Thanks to all of the Udemy instructors!!

This course just made a change in my life! I watched so many webinars, they just tell you they will show you how you can make Facebook ads and make lots of money, but never actually show you the least of what you wished to learn unless you pay a couple thousands. But now I kinda have an idea of the secret of the gods. Good enough to try to put some money on it now.

The course was great and very clear, the only thing I could see being confusing to some is that the sites look different and have different settings then they did then. Not all people are computer literate and may give up because they can't change settings exactly like you did in this course. But that does not take away from the value of this course.

I honestly think it’s the best course for learning Shopify in all the net. Mister Patrick was so brief yet so precise on giving information about the argument and invites people to follow him step by step throughout his course. Excellent explaining of everything that's needed to have a successful quick-start eCommerce. Love it!

Very informative for a free course. It will get a beginner up and running in a short amount of time as it covers all the basics. Please keep in mind that it is a starting point. From here people will need to do further research and lots of trial and error. Thanks a lot to Patrick for this informative course.

Practical method to follow, the only thing I wish I could see something real from the teacher to rely on the examples he did, Still awesome training! Buen curso me gusto es rapido solo te tomas 2 horas aprendiendo las tacticas.

Great course. The offer to get free help in his Facebook group is a great offer. More in-depth detail would make it even better. Some more help on "free with shipping setup" would be nice. Will be following up with visit to Facebook group, where I believe I'll get the help that I need.
By Michael Smith on 1/8/2017
The information given in this course may seem basic to some but for someone who has no idea where to start, this is an AMAZING resource. The fact that it is free makes it even better. If you are looking to get started in eCommerce, this will definitely give you a foundation to build on.
