The website and shop checklist to double your sales

Did you know that making minor tweaks on your website can improve your sales by 200%?

How to build your own website with Shopify in under 1 hour

Are you finally thinking about putting together your own website but don't know where to start?

Or are your Etsy sales declining year after year, and you're looking for a way out to something better?

I've always preached having your own website for a few reasons:

  • you position yourself in a different class, away from Etsy “hobby shops” that under price everyone in the market

And without paying thousands of dollars to a webdesigner.
