Building a successful online store takes so much more than just adding a logo and awesome products to a Shopify site!
You've not only got to stand out from other online stores and catch the attention of potential customers in 5 seconds but...
You've also got to build your site strategically in order to convert buyers and be able to show up on search engines like google.
And we want to be showing up on sites like google!
You probably already know this…but hiring a professional isn’t cheap!
Especially in the beginning when you’re still trying to figure out how all of this E-Commerce biz stuff works.
Not to mention Website Design isn’t your specialty.
No worries though babe…that’s my specialty.
Here's the problem...
If you want to build a successful online shop you've got to have a website that does it's job.
You need more than just a Facebook group these days to attract customers that aren't just friends of friends!!
but
words like SEO, Home Page layout strategy, opt-ins, readability, website accessibility, + alt tags have you ready to call it quits.
In 2022 these things are more important than ever!
And that's on top of learning how things like products, pages, collections, and the settings all work.
Not to mention we can't rely on social media channels we don't own!
Plus, if you don't have a privacy policy Google might skip right over you. You've got to know these things.
That's exactly why I created SIB!
Can you imagine having a gorgeous website that does more than just look pretty?

shows up on search engines
easy to design

+ more!

I think you did absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have asked for better. I’m so excited to share this.
I feel like I have a brand and a business after I worked with Christy. Before I just had a Facebook group.

I love the passion Christy Jo brings to business, and to branding! She is professional, thoughtful and has great attention to detail. She helped us fall in love with the story our brand gets to tell.

Your busy (who isn't these days, right), your time is valuable, and you don't have 6 months to learn the ins and outs of being a web designer.

They are perfect for everyone from beginner to those that already use and love Shopify (but maybe lack the design and strategy part).

The FAQ's
What if I'm not good at design?
You don't have to be a professional designer to go through this course! Not only do I include some templates for those that want to use them but, I also have a few lessons on design. So whether you already have a brand or you're starting from scratch, you'll have the lessons you need.
What if I already have a shop?
This course is specifically for Shopfiy so if you've got a shop with another platform this might not be for you unless you're switching. If you've already got a Shopify shop, this course will go over everything for you to be able to learn the back end of the shop and more about the theme customizer! Plus, I'm dropping all of me SEO tips, along with other helpful tips to grow your shop!
What if a designer created my shop but I still am unfamiliar with Shopifys backend?
Even when a designer creates your shop you can still either 1. Lack the knowledge to make changes to your shop yourself and not have experience on the back end or 2. Sometimes we hire someone that may not be an expert or is just starting out (hey, I was there once too). If you want to be able to gain knowledge on your shop and be able to make changes or completely redesign, this is for you!
