      I will try to make it simpler so if you are familiar with Amazon you will visit their site then look for things right? but those products are from different sellers but you are searching in Amazon so to relate it to Shopify
      You are the owner of the Amazon website and whatever they search on that website is all your products and not from other sellers.
      Shopify helps you build your online store/website without needing you to study about web development so you don't need to study programming and coding to build your online store however the advertising part and marketing is all depends on you, shopify just helps you establish your online store without them being the forefront unlike Amazon where they sell their products under their name.

      @MerchantMaverick  Před 2 lety

      Hi Chees Box!
      Shopify is a software as a service (SaaS) eCommerce platform that allows you to build your own online store. Or, you can use Shopify's software to add online shopping and checkout functions to an existing website or social media account.
      You get customers by listing your products on your online store, advertising your digital or physical products or services online, and then using Shopify's checkout functions to let visitors purchase items from your website.
      Shopify does not directly advertise for you, but you can connect your Shopify inventory with your business's social media accounts. Then, people can shop through your social media posts.
      The Shopify App Store has apps specifically made to connect your social media to your store. You can access advertising apps for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms beginning with the Shopify Lite plan ($9/month.) You do not need a fully-built Shopify online store to advertise on social media.
      We hope that answers your question! Thanks so much for watching and posting!

    Hello, great video! Just two questions: (1) When you sign up with shopify, does that mean that you do not need a website anymore? Is that how this works? And if so, do you just add a domain to your store and that's all?
    (2) By using shopify, will it always show the "shopify" logo (or simply say "shopify") all the way at the bottom? If so, can that be avoided by subscribing to a more expensive plan? Thank you in advance!

    • @MerchantMaverick
      @MerchantMaverick  Před 2 lety +26

      Hey Pitbull Trader! Thanks for the positive feedback, and for commenting here. To answer your questions:
      1. Yes, you use Shopify's software to build a new website. It is possible to use a custom URL, if you have an existing website and want to maintain your audience.
      2. You can remove "Powered by Shopify" from your store through the Shopify admin. From Shopify Help Center: From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes and choose the theme you want to edit and click Actions > Edit languages. ... In the Powered by Shopify HTML box, use the space bar on your keyboard to type a single space. help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/remove-powered-by-shopify-message
      Hope that helps!

      Hey there! If you want to sell your own original products, you can set up a traditional online store through Shopify. Or you can look into dropshipping where you will need to partner with a supplier (AliExpress, Alibaba, and SaleHoo). From there you'll be able to choose what items you want to make available in your store from their inventory and they'll ship the products to your customers for you! We hope this helps. Best of luck! 😊

    I'm confused because I can "create a product" with nothing but an image file, say whatever I want in the description of the product, and somehow that becomes a product someone can buy.

    • @MerchantMaverick
      @MerchantMaverick  Před 2 lety

      Hey Open Canvas! Each of your different gigs takes a different approach and it would probably be best to put major effort into making one successful at a time. However, if your intention is to keep all three lines going, Shopify is definitely the best bet. Shopify offers great integrations with print-on-demand services that might make the clothing line easier, via dropshipping. Homemade food items would not be allowed on Amazon for sure and are also unlikely to be allowed on eBay either. However, if you want to sell things in person (food items at farmers markets, for example, or take payment for a photography session) then Square might be a good way to go, because of its strong POS. It just depends on how you want to develop your business! We wish you much success in whatever do you do!

      Hey, @MyCreations218! Yes, there is a monthly fee depending on what Shopify plan your business decides to go with. In addition, it is likely you'll encounter a handful of other fees (most of them related to payment processing).

      That's one of the potential issues for drop-shippers. You can choose the products you're interested in selling from the vendor, but you don't have any say over quality control so you'll want to choose your vendor carefully! 🙌 Best of luck!

      Hi Dana!
      To answer your question, Shopify isn't itself a shop, but it is a platform where people can sign up and add inventory to their dashboard. You can set up a site or start sharing a link/sell on social media from there as well. Many online shops are using Shopify, but you won't see that from the consumer side of things.
      Here is a list of shops that use Shopify. You can see that they use their own brand name and logo, so you'd never know they used Shopify on the backend: www.shopify.com/blog/shopify-stores

    • @MerchantMaverick
      @MerchantMaverick  Před 2 lety

      Hi Ilena,
      Our understanding is that Disney is VERY aggressive in protecting its brand and characters, even from seemingly minuscule threats. Here is a helpful article we found on Disney copyrights: info.legalzoom.com/article/legal-use-of-the-disney-characters
      Key takeaways: "There are two areas where characters could potentially be used without a license. First, expired copyrights can generally be used after expiration. For instance, the copyright on Mickey Mouse expires in 2024. Secondly, you can use protected material as inspiration for your own clearly different creation (called transformative use-it must be clearly different and cannot appear to be a copy or representation)."
      So, ultimately, unless you're selling under those narrow allowances, you could be looking at legal threats. Hope that helps!

      Hey, Victor! If you are selling goods that are available to be dropshipped, then yes, you can cut out part where the item is shipped to you first. That will depend on what you're selling and if there are dropshippers available. You can watch this video: czcams.com/video/C5CdlxOzTPs/video.html. Hope this helps. Best of luck!

      Hi Cory! Shopify automatically assigns you a domain that will read YourStoreName.myshopify.com.

    • @MerchantMaverick
      @MerchantMaverick  Před 2 lety +1

      Hello! Great question. You only need to create one Shopify store and, using Shopify Markets, designate different location-based markets.
      For example, if you’re selling books in the US, UK, and Japan, you can create one Shopify store, then set Japan, the UK, and the US as different markets. Shopify will translate languages, convert currency, and estimate duty/import taxes for each market. Shopify Markets will automatically generate a subfolder for each market, so you will have one version of your store for customers in the US, one for those in the UK, and one for customers in Japan. We hope this helps!

      Great question. It depends! Some merchants hold their own product inventory while others sell directly through a third-party supplier who takes care of the inventory, order fulfillment, and shipping. If you decide to go the dropshipping route, it's important to do your research when choosing a vendor since you don't have any say over quality control. Some popular suppliers you can partner with are AliExpress, Alibaba, and SaleHoo. To learn more about dropshipping, check out our video. We hope this helps!
