Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:00,820 --> 00:00:05,950 OK we're moving along fantastically here and I just want to take this opportunity to make it absolutely 2 00:00:05,950 --> 00:00:12,160 clear that this course is all about building up a fantastic profitable business one that you can be 3 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:18,250 proud of one that could supplement your income or maybe even replace your job all together. 4 00:00:18,250 --> 00:00:23,270 Now what I'm not doing is showing you how to build the most beautiful Shopify store ever. 5 00:00:23,270 --> 00:00:23,800 All right. 6 00:00:23,860 --> 00:00:25,480 And giving you all the tools. 7 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,910 I hope you can see that as this is starting to develop. 8 00:00:27,910 --> 00:00:32,420 Each lecture has great content you can act on right. 9 00:00:32,540 --> 00:00:36,200 I'm leaving a lot of that up to you having given you the tools for the job. 10 00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:37,420 I want you to run with it. 11 00:00:37,420 --> 00:00:43,600 I want you to realize how simple and how powerful this can be and how you can really really use it to 12 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,720 build out something fantastic. 13 00:00:45,730 --> 00:00:48,610 So with that in mind you know we've looked at creating some pages. 14 00:00:48,670 --> 00:00:50,150 We've also looked a logo. 15 00:00:50,170 --> 00:00:51,250 We've looked at some images. 16 00:00:51,250 --> 00:00:56,830 I really hope that you've acted on that and you're starting to feel more and more comfortable and hopefully 17 00:00:57,010 --> 00:01:01,700 getting more and more excited about how this could potentially change your life. 18 00:01:01,750 --> 00:01:05,010 Now the next thing I want to show you on Shopify are the themes. 19 00:01:05,140 --> 00:01:07,370 So let's go down to the online store. 20 00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:11,760 And by default we get the themes page. 21 00:01:11,780 --> 00:01:15,170 Now the themes are the shop window to the store. 22 00:01:15,170 --> 00:01:18,450 They really are the kind of the window dressing that's how I like to look at it. 23 00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:24,710 So if we go back to the site here we see this image with text overlay and this gray thing here which 24 00:01:24,710 --> 00:01:25,810 corresponds with this. 25 00:01:25,820 --> 00:01:26,150 OK. 26 00:01:26,150 --> 00:01:32,490 We're talking about the debut theme and the debut theme is the theme that comes with Shopify by default. 27 00:01:32,510 --> 00:01:32,830 OK. 28 00:01:32,870 --> 00:01:33,950 It's a simple theme. 29 00:01:34,070 --> 00:01:35,480 It's very powerful. 30 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,410 And what it does allow me to do is to demonstrate to you how things work. 31 00:01:39,590 --> 00:01:44,930 Now I'm going to show you how this debut thing works and how you can customize the store as it currently 32 00:01:44,930 --> 00:01:45,660 looks. 33 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:51,260 And with that knowledge the good news is that most themes have a very very similar pattern to the way 34 00:01:51,260 --> 00:01:52,100 they behave. 35 00:01:52,100 --> 00:01:57,950 So once you've got this debut theme idea under your belt you'll be able to run with it and use all kinds 36 00:01:57,950 --> 00:02:02,810 of other cool themes to really really personalize and customize your store. 37 00:02:02,810 --> 00:02:05,580 And I'll talk about that a little bit in the next lecture. 38 00:02:05,780 --> 00:02:09,030 But right now I want to focus on this debut theme. 39 00:02:09,110 --> 00:02:17,040 So in order to make changes to the way this looks all we need to do is click on customize and you see 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,100 straight away the entire presentation has changed. 41 00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:20,560 All right. 42 00:02:20,580 --> 00:02:23,370 What we've got here is a different menu on the left hand side. 43 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,750 And this part over here is actually a live preview of my site. 44 00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:28,920 So this is very very cool. 45 00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:33,330 I can make changes over here which you'll see in a moment and I'll see exactly how they affect the store 46 00:02:33,540 --> 00:02:35,840 over here instantly. 47 00:02:36,510 --> 00:02:39,560 So let's have a bit of fun and play around with this and see what we can actually do. 48 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,970 Again I want you to feel really really comfortable with this. 49 00:02:41,970 --> 00:02:43,880 I don't think we can take that long. 50 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:52,860 So if we go to the header for example and here you will see that we can upload a logo image OK to replace 51 00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:54,080 this thing here. 52 00:02:54,390 --> 00:02:55,760 So very very simple. 53 00:02:55,770 --> 00:02:59,990 All we got to do is select an image basically upload it. 54 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,900 There's nothing there which will be the case take your image. 55 00:03:02,910 --> 00:03:07,170 This is the one I created very very quickly over on camera before. 56 00:03:07,170 --> 00:03:07,610 OK. 57 00:03:07,830 --> 00:03:13,290 I repeat myself is definitely not the best logo of all time but I want to show you how to do this rather 58 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,530 than the most beautiful logo ever. 59 00:03:15,570 --> 00:03:16,080 But there you go. 60 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,120 You can see straightaway that having selected the logo it appears instantly on the right hand side. 61 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,800 OK so Tim's super deals replaces that plain text that I had before. 62 00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:32,740 So if I click on select I can also basically make some changes here I could make this thing a little 63 00:03:32,740 --> 00:03:34,320 bit wider if I wanted to. 64 00:03:34,330 --> 00:03:37,400 So let's say I want to make it bigger up to 200. 65 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,700 I get an instant change maybe that looks a bit better. 66 00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:43,430 Now that is bigger you know and I can align it left of center. 67 00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:47,740 However I wanted but I'm pretty happy with that at the moment. 68 00:03:47,740 --> 00:03:49,630 So having got that right. 69 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:54,910 Let's go back now and show you how easy it is to change this text here. 70 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,200 So here we just go to this but here is his image with text overlay. 71 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:04,730 And as you scroll down you can see that I can select an image which will look at in a moment. 72 00:04:04,830 --> 00:04:08,340 But here we see the actual text itself. 73 00:04:08,350 --> 00:04:10,840 So if I change this to read something like. 74 00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:15,870 Come and visit our store. 75 00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:22,210 OK that's not the greatest headline ever but I can see straight away how simple that was to do and then 76 00:04:22,210 --> 00:04:26,530 maybe what I want to do now is change this subheading here. 77 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,430 Now at this point I want to start introducing something I promised right at the beginning of the Course 78 00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:35,770 where I said I'll show you some of the things that work for me and things that work for me in the past 79 00:04:35,770 --> 00:04:41,770 very well are the dog jewelry business now is not jewelry for dogs it's actually jewelry for people 80 00:04:41,950 --> 00:04:42,850 who own dogs. 81 00:04:42,850 --> 00:04:48,370 OK so just a small Naish you know you might be wanting to build up a general store or unreached or whatever 82 00:04:48,370 --> 00:04:49,040 it might be. 83 00:04:49,150 --> 00:04:54,880 But I'm going to use that as a kind of an ongoing example through this as we build out my particular 84 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:59,480 store and you'll see the products that I use later on will also be in that niche. 85 00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:03,570 But of course entirely up to you how you're going to build out your particular business. 86 00:05:03,850 --> 00:05:05,380 So let me put in some text here. 87 00:05:05,470 --> 00:05:07,620 That would be relevant to the Neech. 88 00:05:07,830 --> 00:05:13,150 So I'm going to take this out and I'm just going to put in this text here explore our fantastic collection 89 00:05:13,210 --> 00:05:15,830 of dark jewelry products. 90 00:05:17,670 --> 00:05:22,190 And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to come down here a little bit and I want to create a pattern. 91 00:05:22,180 --> 00:05:22,530 All right. 92 00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:27,010 So here and this button label I'm going to type in here. 93 00:05:27,690 --> 00:05:32,810 Discover excuse me discover more dot dot dot. 94 00:05:33,180 --> 00:05:34,890 And then the button itself. 95 00:05:34,890 --> 00:05:38,990 I will just link to the products page all products at the moment. 96 00:05:39,060 --> 00:05:39,590 OK. 97 00:05:39,810 --> 00:05:45,580 Something like that so you can see I mean how long was that I spent about a minute if not less where 98 00:05:45,620 --> 00:05:48,130 I've changed the main title to come visit our store. 99 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:53,460 I've now got a nice little subheading here Explora a fantastic collection of dog jewelry products and 100 00:05:53,460 --> 00:05:54,890 they discover more. 101 00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:58,000 But now I went through that fairly quickly will come back to this. 102 00:05:58,110 --> 00:06:05,160 But the idea is that this is in fact a very good design for a store because you're saying exactly what 103 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,510 it's all about in the beginning and you're drawing them in to your collection. 104 00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:09,890 OK. 105 00:06:09,910 --> 00:06:14,530 With discover more button basically pulls somebody into the store. 106 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,340 So I encourage you to use that design. 107 00:06:17,340 --> 00:06:17,600 OK. 108 00:06:17,610 --> 00:06:18,940 That's your takeaway if you like. 109 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,890 Obviously you're going to put your own spin on it depending on exactly how you're building out your 110 00:06:22,890 --> 00:06:26,430 store but try to have that heading that kind of subheading. 111 00:06:26,430 --> 00:06:29,350 And then a button that pulls them into the store. 112 00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:32,010 Now let's not forget to save. 113 00:06:32,030 --> 00:06:32,610 Of course 114 00:06:35,310 --> 00:06:40,350 and just to be absolutely sure that it's actually really happening on our site if we go back here and 115 00:06:40,650 --> 00:06:41,340 refresh 116 00:06:44,090 --> 00:06:47,970 then here you see the logo and all the bits and pieces that we've just been talking about. 117 00:06:48,290 --> 00:06:54,470 So now let's try and put a nice image behind all this to really start to give it a professional feel. 118 00:06:54,470 --> 00:06:57,140 So back to the customized theme page and still in this. 119 00:06:57,140 --> 00:06:59,210 Come and visit our store section. 120 00:06:59,210 --> 00:07:05,600 What I'm going to do here is click on this select image and I'm going to upload an image that I got 121 00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:07,850 from Eisenach photo in fact. 122 00:07:07,850 --> 00:07:09,180 So this one here. 123 00:07:09,370 --> 00:07:12,590 And it's basically just an image of a woman cuddling a dog which I rather like. 124 00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:13,580 Now I've pulled that in. 125 00:07:13,590 --> 00:07:16,730 You can see instantly that it's available on the site. 126 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:24,540 And all I really got to do now is just select that now I can play around again a little bit with these 127 00:07:24,690 --> 00:07:26,480 various options but I'm pretty happy with that. 128 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,070 Now that will do for the time being. 129 00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:34,730 So I'm going to click on Save let's just refresh the site again just to be sure. 130 00:07:36,540 --> 00:07:41,430 So there's the image coming in so you can really see within a few minutes of gone from a completely 131 00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:44,220 blank home page to something that looks really really cool. 132 00:07:44,220 --> 00:07:50,350 And I've used no technical skills at all is all pointing click just as I promised to you. 133 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,700 So I really really hope you get excited here. 134 00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:58,740 Now just to finish up I want to show you where those images are actually stored with in your Shopify 135 00:07:58,740 --> 00:07:59,460 backend. 136 00:07:59,730 --> 00:08:06,690 So back to the code astore section come out of here and then click on this Shopify logo to bring you 137 00:08:06,690 --> 00:08:09,230 back to the original admin. 138 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,440 Now you can see all of this has changed as well. 139 00:08:11,460 --> 00:08:17,330 And if I go down to the settings we have a section here called files. 140 00:08:17,450 --> 00:08:23,630 If I click on files all those files you've uploaded in my case just a couple of images they're held 141 00:08:23,630 --> 00:08:23,900 here. 142 00:08:23,900 --> 00:08:30,140 So if you ever want to delete them modify them or indeed upload files directly to this area you can. 143 00:08:30,140 --> 00:08:35,630 OK so that's just another part of the settings I wanted to make you aware of but otherwise we have made 144 00:08:35,690 --> 00:08:41,630 leaps and bounds in this lecture towards creating a fantastic looking source or really again encourage 145 00:08:41,630 --> 00:08:44,960 you to go back and do all this stuff for yourself build out what I've done. 146 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,440 You've seen how simple and powerful shop for years. 147 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,630 So we've been playing around with the debut theme just one theme but there are hundreds maybe thousands 148 00:08:53,630 --> 00:08:55,580 of themes out there that you can use. 149 00:08:55,610 --> 00:09:00,200 So I just want to make you aware of all that and we're going to talk about that in the next lecture. 15269
