Business Guide:

How to get started

When you have a business name in mind look up the domain name to see if it’s taken. You don’t want to spend money on an LLC just to find out that your name is taken. Thats a waste of money because you also have to pay to dissolve it.

If the name is not taken, great, don’t file an LLC yet. Go online and get a virtual business address. Why? If you’re running your business out of your home like I am, just know that it’s public information if you use your address to file your LLC. A virtual address should cost like $10-$20 a month. Use that to file your LLC.

Once you’ve filed that LLC get your Ein. That’s your Employee Identification Number. It’s your businesses tax id. It’s free to file on the IRS website. Don’t fall for the scam websites you guys.

Once you’ve gotten your EIN go to Google domains and get your website name aswell as 3-4 emails. An email for your social media accounts, an executive email for yourself, an [email protected] for things like your business bank account, Shopify account, etc; and maybe a customer support email. I use the social email as a customer support email. All of this should be like $50/month.

Once you’ve don’t that get on Canva and make that logo bookie. Personally I paid someone on Fiverr to make mine because I’m a “soft business life” kind of girl and I’d rather pay the professionals. Thats just me though.

Once you’ve got your logo go ahead and get them social media accounts going. Instagram, tiktok, Facebook.

Alright now this is where it gets specific to clothing brands because that’s what I own.

Time to find a manufacturer. Head over to alibaba and search what kind of product you want to sell. Be sure to add “oem” if you want a manufacturer that customizes. Look for the amount of orders they’ve gotten on that product. If it says zero orders that’s ok. Some styles are new and thus haven’t been ordered yet. Check any reviews they have for other products. Also check the total revenue they’ve done. It’s on the store profile. I can’t tell you what the sweet spot is yet bc I’ve only used one manufacturer so far but I’d look for mid six figures and up if you wanna be real safe.

Chat with them and order a sample. Even if you buy from a vendor list you’ll need your own sample to make content with. I suggest buying one and first. It’s worth the wait because if you buy multiple and end up not liking them you’d have wasted money that could’ve gone into testing a different manufacturer.

Do not launch with more than 2 products. Even 2 is a stretch, wallai start with one.

This is because if you’re doing the preorder, which I suggest, you’ll be depending on customer orders to pay for the bulk order. Manufacturers do their moq by color or style. If you have too many options in your website and customers order a mix of things, you better pray you have enough money to cover the bulk for all those different styles. Stay safe and give them 1-2 options to choose from.

Pre order method is great if you don’t have a lot of cash to start with because the orders pay for themselves. Bulk orders start to wrack up. Especially if it’s a custom style or material. You don’t want to break the bank for something that might not sell.

Once you’ve gotten and approved your samples choose a launch date. 2-3 weeks before that launch dates post consistently. At least once a day but remember quality over quantity. Now don’t be tricked. Quality doesn’t mean a full cinematography. It means connecting with your audience and relating with them to a point where they’re like “this business gets it”. Either that or attaching yourself to an identity they want to have. “It girl ig influencer”, “feminine soft life babe” “clean girl Pilates princess” whatever the fuck it is embody ur as best as you can. When customers attach your product with an identity that is aspirational to them they will buy it without rationalizing. It’s why the luxury market makes so much off of ppl who can’t afford to buy it twice.

Focus on the backend

If you have a goal of getting an influx of orders and making a lot of sales, be sure that your business is structured in a way that can handle it happening at any given time. You know those tiktok businesses that get one viral video and sell out over night? That could be you but if you’re not prepared ppl are going to be upset. I suggest working backwards:

A customer service platform/inbox so that you can answer them right away with frequently asked questions.

Have stock so that you have something for customers to buy once they finally land on your website.

Have a well presenting website so that ppl don’t think you’re a scam. I’m going to do a post on this bc some of these business websites drive me fuckin nuts. Color theory ppl, color theory.

A social media page with some kind of social proof ie reviews from customers in some way shape or form. Ppl are going to be looking for what others have to say about your brand. Hire UGC creators to make videos that you can post on your page. They’re cheaper than influencers but still know how to convey the message well. You’ll have to have extra samples and items on hand to send them. Also check out their usage rights. Some will allow you to use their videos in ads but you have to pay extra and it’s only for a certain amount of time. But if they do it right, you’ll get a great return. Scared money don’t make no money.

A social media page that shows the products in movement and different lighting. I need to be able to imagine myself in the item before I buy it. Where would I wear it, how will it fit on me. Even when I’ve already ordered something I stay going back to the businesses social media page just to see the clothes again. I might even search it up to see other ppl wearing it.

Packaging

No need to go crazy with the packaging in the beginning. Don’t get me wrong, branding is important but as a beginner you may not have the money for that yet. You need to focus on spending money on what will give you the best return. Just get regular poly mailers from Amazon in your brand colors. You’ll also need:

A stack of 6x4 shipping labels

A thermal printer

A scale

When your manufacturer sends you the clothes they will most likely be in their own little bags. If not you can get those from Amazon too.

Later on you can go to alibaba and find a manufacturer to print you custom poly mailers for that extra edge. Put your logo, a cute message, and your social media handles on the bag and that’s it. Good to go.

You can also design your own thank you cards as well. I won’t be doing that.

Little things to remember

Don’t feel like you have to keep up with big brands. You don’t need to launch something every two weeks. As a matter of fact I advise against emulating super fast fashion brands. I only launch a new item once the pre ordered items have been shipped out to customers.

Be nice to your customers. You’d think this was obvious but it’s not. Some ppl are rude, ghetto, and uncouth. If you hate authority and have a smart mouth I think you should either take a customer service course or hire a virtual assistant from the Philippines to do your customer service for you because no customers = no money.

I’ll update this as I learn and grow:

12/18/2023

Influencers

Not every influencer with a mass follower base is going to be your influencer. It’s possible that you pay $5000 for an influencer with 75k followers to post your product on her page but that post makes you less than $3k. That means you’ve net negative $2k. What a fuckin waste of money.

This is why it’s important to develop a persona for your brand. What is your brand identity? Who is your target audience? What are their psychographics?

Where do currently shop? What are there favorite social media apps?What is their race? Their age? Their ethnicity? Are they in college or highschool? Do they have parents that support their lifestyle or are they hustlers? Are they concerned about price or quality more? Are they married? Do they have children? Are they environmentally conscious?

You need to embody Joe Goldberg and peer at them through their window. Acquaint yourself with every part of their life.

Also, you might not be your target demographic yet and that’s ok. The girls that shop with my brand have social lives. They go out with their friends and need outfits to wear. I don’t have a social life. The only clothes I wear are my work clothes to go to work and my robe when I’m at home.Or a sweat set and a bonnet to run errands.

Don’t think to yourself “ I would never wear that.” “I would never buy something at that price point”. That’s fine cuz someone else will. A lot of people will.

Another thing is your demographic could change once you start your business. It might be that you create content that attracts a different type of person than what you originally planned and that’s cool too. We don’t live in a perfect world. As long as they’re close enough to what you had predetermined it’s ok. Sometimes our business comes out different than we hoped but it’s just as good if not better. It’s like child. Don’t destroy its greatness trying to turn it into something it doesn’t want to be.

User generated content

Love, love, love her down. She’s that sweet spot between making content yourself and having an influencer with a large following make the content for you. UGC is a form of social proof which is something you need for an e-commerce brand especially. Ppl can’t just pop into your store and try on your stuff so they need the opinions of “regular” people to sell them on it. They want to see that person try it on, do a close up of the fabric, wear it to a social setting, etc;

What I like about UGC is that I can pick someone who fits into my brand persona to represent my brand even if I don’t. Someone that appears aspirational but still relatable. Like I said previously, you yourself might not embody your brands persona but you can pay someone who does.

A little translate for yall: I do not live in a nice apartment. My room is small, and dark, and filled with boxes. My living room has mix matched decor and I myself am not the body type I’d like to be (pls don’t hit me with body positivity babe). What I can do is pay a girl with the opposite of all those things and knows how to sell a product.

I have a girl right now that I’ve inquired to make posts for me and she’s got it all. Her rate for one video is $100 with an extra $30 for 90 days of usage in ads. $100 is the new 50 and for the return I’ll get on her, THATS A STEAL.

If you need to find a UGC creator search it up on tiktok and Twitter. Most of them have a portfolio of past work they’ve done. If you feel like they match your brands vibes, keep their info for when you’re ready.

I suggest to have a roster of them because if ppl keep seeing the same person over and over, the thought that that person is just a regular degular customer leaves their mind and you lose the magic of UGC.

Update 12/21/2023

I’ve been sick but yall ain’t paying me so it’s ok. Here’s the update.

Website

Your website is your home babe and when you’re preparing for guest you can’t have your home looking any type of way. Not only does it need to be clean but it needs to be cohesive and inviting.

You know how many times I’ve opened someone’s booking page on Instagram and I click off. Not only am I not reading through all of that small ass text but my head hurts cuz you’ve got a black font on a hot pink background.

Some of yalls websites to not comply with accessibility guidelines so pay attention to that bc you can be sued. Ppl should be able to read what you have on there without getting a headache.

Good rule of thumb is to have one primary color, and then black and white. Don’t over complicate it. Your primary color will be your logo, think twitters blue, then your secondary colors should be black and white, for your text. You might have an accent color like gold or silver, this should be used sparingly for a little dazzle.

If you’re a clothing brand like me, keep the text short and sweet. Think about it, when you go shopping on your favorite website are you bombarded with a soliloquy on how the collection came to be? And even if you are do you stop and read the whole thing? I don’t bc I don’t care. That’s what your Instagram story is for.

All I want to see is the attention grabber and a short,but convincing, tagline.

Example: Ski Resort 2023-“Stun the slopes and stand out on the ski lift with best sellers spotted at St. Moritz”

Let you images tell the rest of the story.

Don’t overwhelm them with options

Guys this is so important. The more options ppl see the less they buy or the less likely they are to buy. Why? This is the thought process.

“Omg the stuff on this website is so cute! Let me go through their catalog and add to my cart as I go”

5 minutes of scrolling

“Ok I have too many things in my cart let me just save to a wishlist instead”

Another 5 minutes of scrolling

“Ok I’ll just stop here and go back to my cart and decide what I’m going to get rn”

Goes to cart

Spends 10 minutes deciding what she’s gonna get bc there’s so many good options

Takes 10 items out of her cart and only buys two basics bc she knows those are less likely to disappoint.

And scene

That is if she didn’t leave after the second five minutes of scrolling. Nowadays five minutes on a non stimulating website is a lot, don’t let it take that long.

Obviously this also depends on the customers budget. Some people have the money to just buy everything in their cart (I wish- one day), but most are just window shopper you hope to convert with your nice styles, images, and prices. Don’t make it harder for people to give you their money.

I have more but I’m tired of writing so I’ll update yall tmrw.

hellooo!!! i was wondering a few things regarding your upcoming pre-orders/shop release:

- will a mailing list be available? (to notify us for the drop)

- how much will bundles be? i’m interested in getting your art book plus some other goodies :-)

- are there any current updates on the production process?

thank you for your time!!!

Thanks for the interest!!! : D

Prefacing saying store website is NOT up yet since ive recieved so many asks about the url! thank u also to those ppl.

-I haven't planned for a mailing list since we’re going with an unlimited run of preorders thru some weeks so im confident ppl will have time to get if they need, I can set it up!

-I'd like to have bundles, maybe by fandom or item. We're still setting stuff up. The store is run thru shopify, and it’s a bit tricky to set up item bundles but we’re finding ways we like. maybe in a separate listing… The movie stickers will be sold separetely and the saw+ds9+brba ones will be on a sheet, so I was thinking of group deals for individual stickers too. I plan to offer discount codes to my patreons.

Rn in production we decided to go with another manufacturer for the artbook after some more reviewing and being unhappy with the quality. The glue is cracking up a bit at the last page, so the last few pages have a slight buckling and wobbling to them. (Looks like a moisture issue) Print quality isn't affected, but I'd really like it to be as close to perfect as can get! so we've sent them away again to see how we like it this time. we've picked printing place, and we're waiting for the sticker sheet proofs to come in next week ^_^ !

Hello there!

Around a year ago, I came up with some designs for clone booty shorts because they were haunting me and I wanted them. Turns out other people wanted some too!

Someone then reached out to me with a company that could print out the designs and I spent so much time connecting that with Shopify and PayPal and doing a bunch of shit to pull it all together and for a bit it was successful!

However, to keep the shop up it costed like,, $34-$39 a month and after a bit there were no sales and that wasn't something I could sustain/continue to pay for. So I put the store on hold because I didn't want to take it all down since I spent so much time on putting it together 🙃.

BUT!!

I want to bring it back :D

However, that's only if there's enough interest in the shorts! Of course, I do have other products and am planning on making others as well! (Some examples of what is up on the site are under the cut!)

I want to see how many people might be interested in actually getting something from the shop, should it go back online to see if it's worth bringing back. Though, if there are a good handful I might just have it up for the summer and then put it back on hiatus then rinse and repeat. But we shall see!

That being said...

Please reblog!!

That way it can reach as much people as possible :) Thank y'all so much 🩵💫

Some product images under the cut!

Keep in mind all the shorts have a little logo pertaining to the clone on the front of them! (as seen with the clone force 99 ones with the skull and 99 logo)

Here is a link to the store to see more!

Shopify has a blog problem, this creates a really simple and straightforward opportunity for freelance designers/programmers

Earlier this year I settled the editorial decisions I needed for a lot of blogging going forward, and recently I've experimented (repeatedly) with the idea of having a blog on a separate platform, or using Shopify's system.

Having two sites would allow me to blog on a WordPress site, but creates... two sites, therefore complicates everything more. More maintenance, design, etc. etc.

I am actively seeking to make my life easier so I am foregoing two sites and learning to live with the limitations.

A personal struggle to the surprise of no one.

You can use WordPress and thread Shopify through it via the "buy" button, which is a shortcut for small stores and/or larger stores where you are very comfortable in WordPress.

You cannot use Shopify and thread WordPress through it.

Which is a shame.

Because Shopify's native blog platform is fucking horrible.

An independent graphic designer who can program, or a programmer who can design, cannot solve Shopify's problems.

They are inherent to the system and likely built on legacy code Shopify doesn't want to update because it'll cost a fortune.

I'll just be mad about this until the market forces them to address this opportunity and they revamp their blogging platform. That's fine.

Or maybe decades will pass and they won't. That's... fine too. I guess.

I am rambling this out because if I were in the business of freelance graphic design and/or programming I would jump on this immediately. I used to be and always shared opportunities with friends and it was fun and I kinda miss that aspect of the life.

I'm not in that business, and I have in-house programming, please don't pitch me, but do consider pitching... pretty much everyone with a Shopify site and a blog as Phase 01 of your plan, and everyone who has a Shopify site and does not have a blog as Phase 02 of your plan.

Here is what I would tackle:

Shopify blogs have two structures: "blog" and "blog post".

A blog in Shopify is essentially a category in WordPress, with more limitations, such as, a blog post can only be in a single "blog". That sucks but it means your life as a designer/developer gets more interesting.

Most Shopify themes come out of the box with 1 "blog" and 1 "blog post" template. They are exceptionally simple, usually. I would build a few test templates and offer them to clients "these will be modified to fit your direct style."

For some reason -- I'm guessing focus -- most blogs in Shopify have the image on top. If you structure "image on the left, image on the right" as options you can offer clients, you've just tripled their layout capabilities.

For another reason, I don't know why, but almost all shopify blog post templates I've seen do not have sidebars. Which is insane?! You can control that from the fucking "blog post" template so it would be an easy win.

You could work around the "a post can only be in one blog on Shopify" issue by having a sidebar that pulls the latest 3 (or 5 or whatever) posts as links for other blogs on the site: TEST SITE has 3 blogs. When you're looking at a post on BLOG 01, in the sidebar, you see a link to the latest post on BLOG 02 and BLOG 03. Similarly, when you're looking at a post on BLOG 02, the sidebar has the latest post from BLOG 01 and BLOG 03 (and so on)

The template I use, off the shelf, uses the Shopify's user name and details for the author of the blog. Once a blog post is created, in Shopify, you cannot alter the author. This is dumb as fucking rock salt on slug popcorn. But, again, systematic, I'm pitching ideas on ways around it -- exclude this and just use a CUSTOM DATA field to allow the Shopify owner to pick the relevant author. This cuts down on the need for extra Shopify users, tremendously, and builds in the opportunity for WordPress-style author footers on blog posts.

Emulate the very common filtering on products -- dropdowns, sorting mechanisms -- with tags on a sidebar on BLOG templates. This will be tricky because you cannot hook into the Search & Discovery function, but it's absolutely no where near impossible. And would be amazingly useful.

Overall Shopify is a decent platform with significant advantages.

There blogger apps but holy shit that is so unnecessary. If they were a one-time-fee, it would be fine, but they aren't, they're generally $20+/month.

I'm not interested in paying for a service that ties me into another tech system that I am fucked if they go out of business, jack up their prices, introduce a feature I don't like, or remove a feature I do like.

For something like a blog system.

Which relies HEAVILY on very structured, single-built, near-infinitely-reused templates.

A low effort, high yield opportunity exists for independent designer/programmers to come up with a suite of designs and say "hey with some very simple modifications, we can take 1 of the following, apply it to your store, and dramatically increase your in-site blogging opportunities."

You start with a base "blog post" template and a base "blog" template and then every time someone hires you to add a feature to theirs, using Shopify's core tech -- you're just applying paint -- you now have a second set of templates.

Recycle forward.

One time fee per client -- likely low, but again effort is low since 90% of the code is re-used -- and each time you secure a client, you have opened a networking door.

Just make sure you include instructions and/or a premium service for when the customer upgrades their theme version -- "occasionally your theme author will upgrade, and this may get lost... so do the following to bring it back and/or we'll handle it for you for $X and Y-days notice."

Business opportunities are everywhere.

Good luck!

I repeat don't add me to your pitch list, I have a programmer in-house, but use this idea to make a business or extend yours!

This isn't financial advice, it is annoyed rambling!

The website run by Ye, which had been selling shirts featuring a swastika, was offline Tuesday morning after the ecommerce platform it uses said the site had violated its rules.

Shopify said in a statement to NBC News: "All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform. This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms so we removed them from Shopify."

The site redirected to a notice that said "this store is not available" Tuesday morning.

Shopify is a widely used ecommerce platform that a range of websites and businesses use to sell goods. The company did not say which of its rules the site had violated, but its terms of service state that it will act "to restrict products or activities that we deem unsafe, inappropriate, or offensive."

Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, used a Super Bowl commercial Sunday night to boost traffic to his website, which over the weekend began selling white T-shirts featuring a black swastika, the symbol of Nazi Germany and a widely recognized symbol of antisemitic hatred.

Ye has in recent days been posting antisemitic message on X, including claims that he is a Nazi, although his account was deactivated Monday.

NBC News asked Ye's spokesperson for reaction to the decision by Shopify, but had not received a response at the time of publication.

In a statement Monday, spokesperson Milo Yiannopoulos said: "Ye is an intergenerational artist and icon who continues to redefine the limits of creativity and free expression. He has deactivated his X account for the time being."

One of the most feted and successful figures in hop-hip, Ye had built up a fashion brand, Yeezy, which began as a collaboration with Adidas — but the German sportswear giant cut ties with him in 2022 over his antisemitic remarks.

Cloudflare, the company that provides hosting for the website, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Store Update/Grand Opening!

Previously ClaustrophobicDesigns!

So despite all of my good reviews and sales, Etsy is taking their sweet time in dealing with the appeal for my shop, ClaustrophobicDesign. It's.. very frustrating and upsetting because that was my whole income and they haven't even given me a reason. My store might come back one day, but they're very vague and I'm not holding my breath. Anyway..

In the meantime, I've opened a Shopify store where I don't have to deal with any of that!

I'm putting back my most popular stickers (Dandadan, Life is Strange, Tomodachi Life) and a bunch of new ones that I'm working on now. So check it out if you can! Anyone who checks it out, thank you so much. I'm really gonna try and rebuild all the stuff I lost, so if you're interested, here's the link!

>>> (AquaticaRain) <<<

Photos of my most popular products are under the cut!!

All of my stickers are laminated, waterproof and pretty big! (3-6 inches!) Like on Etsy, they come with extra stickers and sometimes even pins, and they're all only $2!

Life Is Strange:

Life is Strange 2:

Before the Storm:

Animal Crossing:

Arcane:

Cult of the Lamb:

Dandadan, easily my most popular stickers!!

And a couple of honorable mentions!:

How to Migrate a Store from Shopify to Magento?

Migration from Shopify to Magento is a huge leap for your business, offering it more flexibility, scalability, and advanced features. Though this might seem daunting, having a clear roadmap for making this transition will ease the process. The following is a step-by-step guide to help in successfully migrating:

1. Understand Why You’re Migrating

First of all, before one dives in, understand why Magento is a destination point. Yes, Shopify was perfect for simplicity and ease, but Magento means advanced personalization, better scalability, and robust features. If your current platform starts to limit growth, your Magento 2 Migration will be the cool thing to do.

2. Plan and Prepare Your Data

Start by auditing your Shopify store. After auditing is completed, the Shopify merchant may need to make a note of data to migrate, which would involve details related to a product, customers, orders, and the site's content. Clean up your data-remove all outdated and duplicate entries, to keep data from becoming a disaster later on. In that way, everything will go just smoothly when migrated, and the shop could be arranged more organizedly at Magento.

3. Set Up Your Magento Store

Install Magento on a decent hosting platform or take the help of a hosting service dedicated to Magento. After that, configure some basic settings such as tax rules, currencies, and store language. Choose a theme for Magento that will represent your brand identity and customize it for seamless user experience.

4. Export Data from Shopify

Shopify provides an export facility of data into CSV format. In your Shopify admin, go to the export section and download all the required files: products, orders, customer records, etc. Back up your Shopify store to ensure you will not lose any data while migrating.

5. Data Import via Migration Tools

Magento also allows for imports with some tools, which ease the migration of data. You can use extensions for such migrations, like Cart2Cart or LitExtension, which allow automated transfers. This is because the tools will map data fields between Shopify and Magento to reduce human-induced errors.

6. Test Your Magento Store

Perform a full test of your fresh Magento store before going to production. Verify that every piece of data has migrated correctly and all product descriptions, image captions, and customer details are correct. Ensure your payment gateways, shipping methods, and checkouts work flawlessly.

7. Optimize for Performance

Magento offers advanced caching, scalability, and mobile-friendly features. Set these up to enhance the speed of your site and the users' experience. Install SEO extensions to maintain or improve your search rankings post-migration.

8. Launch Your Store

When everything is tested and optimized, switch your domain to Magento. Keep your customers informed about the migration process, emphasizing the benefits of the new platform, whether it be a better shopping experience or exclusive features.

9. Monitor and Improve

After going live, monitor your store's performance and user feedback. Address any issues quickly and continue optimizing your Magento store to align with your business goals.

Migration to Magento can be rather labor-intensive and take a long time, but the payoff in terms of customization, performance, and scalability is there. If you plan properly, this transition will lay a foundation for your business's success in the long run.

The Ultimate Guide to Growing Your Shopify Store in 2025

Running a Shopify store in 2025 is more competitive than ever, but with the right strategies, you can stand out and build a thriving eCommerce business. Whether you're just starting or looking to scale, here’s a complete guide to optimizing your Shopify store for success.

1. Perfect Your Store’s Design & User Experience

Your store’s design plays a huge role in conversions. Here’s how to make it visually appealing and user-friendly:

✔ Choose a Clean, Mobile-Optimized Theme – 70%+ of online shopping happens on mobile devices, so a responsive theme is a must.

✔ Simplify Navigation – Make it easy for visitors to find what they need with clear menus and search functionality.

✔ Use High-Quality Images & Videos – Professional product photography builds trust and increases conversions.

✔ Speed Up Your Site – Slow-loading pages lead to lost sales. Use compressed images and Shopify speed optimization apps.

2. SEO: Get Found on Google
