Build Your Headquarters

Give your business somewhere to live.

Your Shopify store is not your business.

It is your business’s home.

This is how you build your online headquarters.

Build Your Shopify Store takes you from opening Shopify for the first time to publishing a real storefront with a product, clear navigation, a working cart, and a link you can send to another human.

This is Shopify 101.

You’ll click the buttons, learn where things live, build the essential pieces, test the customer experience, and put your store on the internet.

Not someday.

By the time you finish.

Inside, You’ll Learn How To:

• Create and set up your Shopify store
• Navigate the Shopify dashboard without being terrified of every button
• Choose, customize, and activate a theme
• Add a real product with images, pricing, and fulfillment information
• Organize products using collections

• Turn on and test your cart
• Make sure customers can move toward checkout
• Test and improve the mobile experience
• Use Shopify apps to connect future income streams
• Test the complete customer journey
