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!

Starting an e-commerce business can be an exciting venture with immense potential. However, with the opportunities come challenges and uncertainties. Before diving into the world of online retail, it’s crucial to plan carefully and set a solid foundation. Here are some essential tips to consider before launching your e-commerce business:

1. Conduct Market Research

Understanding the market is fundamental to any successful business. Start by identifying your target audience and analyzing competitors. Research trends, customer preferences, and potential gaps in the market. Tools like Google Trends, social media analytics, and industry reports can provide valuable insights. This research will help you tailor your products or services to meet market demands and differentiate yourself from competitors.

2. Define Your Business Model

E-commerce offers various business models, such as B2C (Business to Consumer), B2B (Business to Business), C2C (Consumer to Consumer), and subscription-based models. Determine which model aligns with your goals and resources. Each model has its own set of challenges and requirements, so choose one that best fits your product or service and target market.

3. Create a Solid Business Plan

A comprehensive business plan serves as a roadmap for your e-commerce venture. Outline your business goals, strategies, target audience, marketing plan, financial projections, and operational plan. This document will not only guide your efforts but also help secure funding if needed. A clear plan can keep you focused and organized as you navigate the complexities of launching and running an e-commerce business.

4. Choose the Right E-Commerce Platform

Selecting the right e-commerce platform is crucial for the success of your online store. Popular platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, and BigCommerce each offer unique features and capabilities. Consider factors such as ease of use, scalability, customization options, payment gateways, and integration with other tools. The platform should align with your business needs and provide a user-friendly experience for both you and your customers.

5. Develop a User-Friendly Website

Your website is the face of your e-commerce business. Ensure it’s designed to be user-friendly, visually appealing, and optimized for mobile devices. A clean, intuitive layout with easy navigation will enhance the shopping experience and reduce cart abandonment rates. Focus on high-quality images, detailed product descriptions, and a seamless checkout process. Additionally, implement search engine optimization (SEO) strategies to improve your site’s visibility in search engines.

6. Implement Secure Payment Processing

Security is a top priority in e-commerce. Customers need to trust that their payment information is safe. Choose a reputable payment gateway and ensure your website uses SSL certificates to encrypt data. Additionally, offer multiple payment options, including credit/debit cards, digital wallets, and other payment methods that are popular with your target audience.

7. Plan Your Logistics and Supply Chain

Efficient logistics and supply chain management are vital for e-commerce success. Develop a strategy for inventory management, warehousing, and shipping. Decide whether you’ll handle fulfillment in-house or partner with third-party logistics providers. Consider shipping options, delivery times, and costs. A smooth and reliable fulfillment process can significantly impact customer satisfaction and repeat business.

8. Craft a Marketing Strategy

Effective marketing is essential to drive traffic and sales to your e-commerce store. Develop a multi-channel marketing strategy that includes social media, email marketing, content marketing, and paid advertising. Create engaging content, run promotions, and leverage social media platforms to build brand awareness and attract customers. Monitor and analyze the performance of your marketing efforts to refine your strategies over time.

9. Focus on Customer Service

Exceptional customer service can set your e-commerce business apart from competitors. Provide multiple channels for customer support, such as live chat, email, and phone. Ensure timely responses to inquiries and resolve issues promptly. Building strong customer relationships and encouraging feedback can enhance customer loyalty and drive positive reviews.

10. Monitor and Adapt

The e-commerce landscape is constantly evolving. Regularly review your business performance, track key metrics, and gather customer feedback. Stay informed about industry trends and technological advancements. Be prepared to adapt your strategies and operations based on insights and changes in the market.

Elevate Your Business with Expert E-commerce Website Development Services

E-commerce is no longer the future—it’s the present. With online shopping becoming second nature for millions worldwide, businesses must adapt to stay competitive. But creating a thriving e-commerce business takes more than uploading product images and adding a payment option. It demands a carefully crafted platform tailored to customer needs, brand identity, and technological advancements.

This is where an experienced e-commerce website development company like KSoft Technologies can help. We don’t just build websites; we craft experiences that turn casual browsers into loyal customers. In this blog, we’ll explore the importance of e-commerce websites, the role of a development company, and how partnering with KSoft Technologies can help your business thrive.

Why Every Business Needs an E-commerce Website

Let’s start with the basics. Why does your business need an e-commerce platform in the first place?

1. Reach a Global Audience

Your physical store may have geographical limitations, but an online store? The world is your marketplace. With a robust e-commerce website, you can reach customers across continents, breaking barriers like time zones and borders.

2. Operate 24/7

Unlike a traditional brick-and-mortar store, an e-commerce website doesn’t have operating hours. It’s open 24/7, allowing customers to shop anytime, from anywhere.

3. Cost-Effective Expansion

Expanding a physical store involves hefty expenses—rent, staff, utilities. An online store is a fraction of the cost and allows you to scale up without logistical hurdles.

4. Gain Valuable Insights

E-commerce websites are a treasure trove of data. From customer demographics to purchasing trends, analytics tools provide actionable insights to refine your marketing and sales strategies.

What Makes a Great E-commerce Website?

Creating a website is easy; creating an exceptional e-commerce website is not. Here are the must-have features that separate a mediocre website from a great one:

1. Intuitive Navigation

Shoppers shouldn’t need a map to find what they’re looking for. Clear menus, logical product categories, and search filters are non-negotiable.

2. High Performance and Speed

Studies show that a one-second delay in page load time can lead to a 7% drop in conversions. Speed matters, and we optimize every element of your site for peak performance.

3. Responsive E-commerce Website Design

More than half of online shopping happens on mobile devices. Our responsive e-commerce website design ensures your site looks and works beautifully across all devices.

5. Customizable Shopping Carts

The shopping cart is where conversions happen. Our customizable carts simplify adding items, applying coupons, and calculating taxes and shipping.

6. SEO-Friendly E-commerce Websites

Your website’s visibility on search engines directly impacts traffic and sales. We build SEO-friendly e-commerce websites with optimized code, meta tags, and fast loading speeds.

Benefits of E-commerce Website Development

If you’re still wondering whether investing in an e-commerce website is worth it, let’s break down the benefits:

1. Increase Sales

A well-designed e-commerce platform makes it easier for customers to browse, buy, and return for more. From intuitive navigation to smooth checkout processes, every feature is geared toward boosting sales.

2. Lower Costs

Compared to traditional retail, an online store saves you money on overhead costs like rent, utilities, and staffing.

3. Build Brand Loyalty

By offering a seamless shopping experience, loyalty programs, and personalized recommendations, your website becomes a trusted destination for customers.

4. Expand Market Reach

With digital tools like social media integration and multi-vendor e-commerce platforms, you can reach more customers and explore new markets.

5. Gain Customer Insights

Analytics tools integrated into your website help you track customer behavior, identify trends, and make data-driven decisions.

Trends Shaping the Future of E-commerce

The e-commerce landscape is constantly evolving, and staying ahead means adopting emerging trends. Here’s what’s shaping the future:

1. Voice Commerce

With devices like Alexa and Google Home becoming household staples, voice search is transforming the way people shop. Optimizing your website for voice commerce ensures you stay relevant.

2. Augmented Reality (AR)

AR is revolutionizing online shopping by letting customers “try” products before they buy. From virtual fitting rooms to 3D product views, AR enhances the online shopping experience.

3. Blockchain Technology

Secure, transparent, and efficient—blockchain is changing the way payments and supply chains are managed in e-commerce.

4. Headless Commerce

This approach decouples the front-end and back-end of your website, giving you greater flexibility and faster load times.

5. Subscription-Based Models

From beauty boxes to meal kits, subscription models are gaining popularity. Adding a subscription option can create consistent revenue streams for your business.

Shopify Ecommerce & On-Demand Apps: Your Complete Development Solution 

In today’s digital age, having a strong online presence is crucial for business success. Shopify has emerged as one of the leading platforms for eCommerce, offering a robust and flexible environment for businesses of all sizes. Whether you’re just starting or scaling your online store, Shopify eCommerce website development provides the tools and features necessary to build a thriving online business. 

Why Choose Shopify for Ecommerce? 

Shopify offers a user-friendly interface and a wide range of customizable themes, making it an ideal choice for businesses looking to create a professional online store without extensive technical knowledge. The platform’s extensive app ecosystem allows for seamless integration of various functionalities, such as payment gateways, inventory management, and marketing tools, all of which contribute to a smooth shopping experience for customers. 

On-Demand Services Apps: Meeting Modern Consumer Needs 

As consumer demand for convenience continues to grow, on-demand services apps have become increasingly popular. These apps allow users to access services such as food delivery, ride-sharing, and home maintenance with just a few taps on their smartphone. For businesses, developing an on-demand services app can open up new revenue streams and provide a competitive edge in a crowded market. 

Combining Shopify with On-Demand Services 

By integrating Shopify with an on-demand services app, businesses can offer a seamless shopping and service experience to their customers. For example, a business could use Shopify to manage product sales while also offering on-demand delivery services through a custom app. This approach not only enhances customer satisfaction but also streamlines operations by centralizing sales and service management within one platform. 

The Development Process 

Developing a Shopify eCommerce website or an on-demand services app requires a clear understanding of your business goals and target audience. It’s essential to work with experienced developers who can translate your vision into a functional, user-friendly platform. The development process typically involves several stages, including planning, design, development, testing, and launch, each of which plays a critical role in ensuring the final product meets your expectations. 

Final Thoughts 

Shopify eCommerce website development, combined with on-demand services apps, offers a powerful solution for businesses looking to expand their online presence and meet the needs of today’s consumers. By leveraging the strengths of both platforms, you can create a comprehensive, user-friendly solution that drives growth and enhances customer satisfaction.

thank you for the advice on pins ! i am in the process of researching how to set up my shop and i have a couple more questions if you don't mind- at what stage did you feel it was time to open your shop, follower-wise? did it take a long time to become profitable ? i saw you go through a manufacturer for your prints, is it because making them is too expensive? i see you don't make stickers, is there a reason? is a laser cutting machine worth it when debuting ? or superfluous? what did you use to design your website (it's very pretty btw)? do you have advice on getting people interested in checking it out?

how does one deal with sales being down, mentally, and how to be patient in the beginning?

does managing orders require a lot of organization? is a label maker worth the time it saves? in general, do you recomment buying your own machines (printer, or button maker) or stick with manufacturers? also, do you have advice on reconcialiting it with anticapitalism because im feeling conflicted about outsourcing labor and adding products to this world... is setting up shopify very hard ? are taxes a hassle ? sorry if it's a lot, i have trouble wrapping my head around every step i'll have to do and want to avoid beginner mistakes if i can. if you have any other advice and traps to avoid i'd be very grateful

dude this is SO many questions.

the short answer is: everything is hard and takes work.

there is no “right” time to start a shop or start selling stuff. you just kind of do it and hope. i opened mine in college (around 2012 or 2013) because i had already made some merch for a local convention and i wanted to sell the leftovers. my store didn’t become viable as a full time job until around 2017—it was a means to subsidize the income i had from working as a freelance artist.

also i never went into debt for the store so there was never a moment when my store “became profitable.” unless you’re willing to go into debt for this (not something i’d recommend), it’s a slow slog to get to a point where you can afford to sell items with a higher price point at a high enough volume that it is viable as a full career. inventory costs money and the more profitable items cost more money. it takes a lot of time and work and momentum to make this your whole job.

buying your own equipment is only worth it if you plan to use that equipment for multiple years to get a good return on investment.

however a label printer is almost always worth it, but i wouldn’t buy one until you’re getting at least 20 orders a month.

low price point items like buttons and stickers can be good to start out (i used to sell both) but at a certain point, unless you’re selling a massive amount of them there is a limit to how profitable a $3 item can be.

managing a store takes an amount of work/organization that is proportional to the number of products you have/sell. i will say i was an absolute disaster at this when i handled everything myself, which is why the store only became viable as a full time job once devin joined me.

i use squarespace for my portfolio site and shopify for the store. they’re relatively hassle free.

if you’re making most of your income from store or freelance work, find a local CPA to help you do taxes. also keep a running spreadsheet for all your expenses and income. separate your expenses into groups based on the different types of deductions (i.e. office equipment, travel, etc.) and update that spreadsheet, at minimum, once a month. then taxes are easy.

as far as anticapitalist mindset goes… do your due diligence when it comes to sussing out the manufacturers/companies you work with and try to create thoughtfully.

anyway next time you ask for advice please just pick like 3 questions at a time. this was… a lot.

# atty rambles about wordpress

this is a tag I am creating because I am chewing hard on this bone and it is a weird stress reliever

as is this blog in general

SHOPIFY BLOG VERSUS WORDPRESS STORE

WordPress Store

WordPress can host (reasonably well) an ecommerce store. Via WooCommerce (their main system), Shopify's "here is a button" system, and/or countless other things.

WordPress does blogging very, very, very effectively at a very, very low cost. Pick a host, press a few buttons, you have a wordpress blog. Depending on the host, but for almost all of them, 99.9% of your maintenance will be handled for you.

The issue is less "an issue" and more "reality" in that a WordPress store is not a store, and so between 50% - 95% of the "store mechanics" are not in the box -- they have to be built, designed, written, maintained.

"Thank you for your order!" pages -- etc. there are ten billion tiny gears to a shop -- all have to be built. Maintained. Etc.

Shopify Blog

Shopify can handle the store mechanics very well. If your needs are specific and/or huge, you'll probably struggle, but to be blunt, at that level you are a medium-sized business (my opinion) and should be looking into a more bespoke system anyway. Either using Shopify as a backbone and/or something unique.

I am explicitly talking about thousands of products and hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales.

If you are not at that level, it (probably) can do everything (almost everything) you need it to do for somewhere between a few hundred and several hundred dollars very well-to-extremely-well.

Except. Blogging.

There is a limit of authors to users on your account, you cannot easily access or sort backend metadata (but you can create it, I say, interestingly enough, I say, angerily).

Tags, no categories, also difficult to sort.

Your ability to sort tags is brutally elementary. As is designing specific templates (tags, author, etc.)

It is an extremely weak system.

I think this is one of the reasons why art shops tend to be... difficult... to build and maintain.

Before there was social media (fuck I'm getting gray) there were blogs and webrings -- these still exist of course but not nearly in scope or scale.

Social media is "blog, public, in a forum" -- so it allows art shops etc. to replace / augment (let's be honest... replace) blogging, which has allowed ecommerce platforms the ability to ignore blogging as a platform to construct and flesh out.

My suggestion is WordPress (or someone else) replace Shopify's blogging system with a native structure

I would be willing to pay a huge chunk of cash for this. I hate Shopify's blogging system, it is so weak. I do not want to maintain a billion things on my own, so I am not interested in using blog-shop-structure.

I am fleshing out the Post's blog on Shopify's system anyway because it is the best possible of uncomfortable choices.

I am aware of all of the Shopify blogging apps. They are paint on a house that needs to be rebuilt.
