Getting Started with Shopify
Samantha Renée guides you through getting setup on Shopify and launching your first business.
RegisterThe first Shopify store was our own.
Shopify Founder and CEO Tobi Lütke had a dream of selling snowboards online but he couldn’t find an affordable way to setup his ecommerce store. So he decided to build the software himself.
After months of coding, Tobi launched his store on the first version of Shopify. Over a decade later and the platform hosts over 600,000 merchants worldwide. One of those stores is Weave Got It - an online business run by Samantha Renée who also works as a Shopify Merchant Success Manager.
In this course, Samantha walks you through the basics of getting setup on Shopify and working towards your first sale.
