My Top 3 Shopify Resources

My Top 3 Shopify Resources

Shopify Resources

Here are 3 Shopify resources to help you get started with your Shopify website.

 

1.  LOGO

Do you have a logo?

If you don’t already have a logo for your business Hatchful will create a logo for your Shopify store. The reason I suggest creating a logo first is because once you have your logo, then you will know which colours to use for your Shopify site, and every other Social Media platform that you choose from now on moving forward.  I suggest only choosing three colours. In my opinion, more than 3 colours becomes confusing. (even though I am a BIG colour person & always think the more the merrier).

 

My 2 logo rules:

  1. Create your logo that resonates with you. Create a logo you like.
  2. Make sure your logo looks good teeny tiny. In other words think forward – don’t make it too complicated because it will be really small in the corner of an Instagram post or as a website avatar. There is a reason Starbucks have simplified their logo over the years!

Consider Pablo Picasso’s quote

“Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist”

This is my logo that I created in Photoshop a gazillion years ago because I love typography.

2.  IMAGES

I get asked this all the time from my clients. Where do you get your images? (Ok – I take my own photos but it’s my thing. I like to take my own photos.)

But, if it isn’t your thing, the photographers who contribute these photos are super awesome.

3.  LEARN MORE

Grow your business. Learn more.

Btw – I don’t receive affiliate payments or anything from Shopify for mentioning them. I just want to help you. I think this is a super terrific resource if you want to build yourself instead of having someone like me to do it for you. 🙂

Shopify Time Savers When Setting Up Products

Shopify Time Savers When Setting Up Products

A Super Simple Time Saving Tip When Setting Up Products in Your Shopify Shop

Shopify’s “Duplicate” feature allows you to duplicate products when setting up products in your Shopify shop. Although you make changes to the title and product description, the basics such as

  • product tags
  • category
  • Region
  • taxes etc…

remain generally the same. This is where your time gets saved in picky little details.

However, the URL gets convoluted and if you don’t fix it while you are editing your product, you will have to go back in to each product separately, which is a big waste of time.

When you go to the bottom of the Product page to the Search engine listing preview you will see how the link includes the original copy of the link plus the new page title. To fix this, you must Edit Website SEO and delete the duplicate portion of the link.
