If you're brand new to the world of Shopify, or
you're finding it tough to get your very first ,sale, you're in for a treat. Because this
video is going to help you get your first ,Shopify sale today and let me tell you when it
rains it pours so let's help you get that very ,first shopify sell let's get into it. Hey friends,
Andrew here hope you're all doing well. Before we ,get into the fresh tips on getting that precious
first shopify sale make sure you've subscribed ,to this channel so you're recommended more useful
tutorials just like this one here we're all about ,e-commerce digital marketing and tech gear here
all right so i know just how hard your first ,shopify sale can be in fact on average only two
percent of your website visitors will become ,a paying customer there's a lot of different
tweaking that's required to get your first ,shopify sale from your store to your marketing
strategy and your product but once everything's ,in the right place it doesn't stop at your first
sale it doesn't stop at your fifth so it doesn't ,even stop at your 100th sale so the point is don't
get disheartened it took me a whole failed shopify ,store until i was able to get most things right
and then within the first few weeks of launching ,that store i was able to make over ten thousand
dollars in a single week the first tip to get ,your first shot by sale is to use exit intent
pop-ups you know those very convenient pop-ups ,that just so happen to come up at the right
time every time you have to quit the tab or ,move on to do something else well they actually
significantly increase the odds of the customer ,making a purchase from your site and if you're
not using it correctly then you should be using ,it right now it's actually activated by a trigger
point and this trigger point is usually at the ,very top of the browser window so when your mouse
scrolls over boom the pop-up comes up you can set ,one of these bad boys up with a small discount
code and personal message and you'll see people ,use this discount code go back into their carts
and then check out you might actually be surprised ,just how many people actually do this it's a great
way to recapture someone's attention and prevent ,people abandoning their online shopping carts
run a giveaway giving out something for free ,how does that make me money i hear you ask well
sometimes you need to spend money to make money ,and in this particular case by running a giveaway
you're promoting your shopify store product and ,brand what i found is if you run a giveaway you'll
get an influx of people to your shopify store who ,are too impatient to wait for the giveaway to
end and will just go ahead and buy that specific ,product especially if it's relatively affordable
best of all they're now exposed to your store and ,brand so you can market to them later on and so
giveaways usually cover the cost itself just make ,sure though that the giveaway is within your
budget use new social media channels so we all ,know that facebook and instagram they're platforms
that are getting harder to use organically without ,spending money on ads but there are still quite
a few or a number i should say that are great ,social media channels to promote your product
for free for example snapchat's new public ,profile lets you literally set up a profile to
share content on and gain snapchat subscribers ,this means a new source of customers for your
ecommerce store and of course speaking of snapchat ,don't forget to claim your free ads credit down
below to grow your business and don't forget to ,use it tick tok is of course another great social
media channel with a big organic reach right now ,so make sure you're building your brand on these
channels as well and you'll definitely see some ,more purchases being made through these platforms
that are free and organic experiment with facebook ,ads this one is a no-brainer if you have some cash
to invest into your new store and business spend ,it on facebook or instagram ads if you haven't
yet tried creating effective facebook ads then you ,need to give it a go asap the ability to put your
business and product in front of the right people ,at the right time at scale is a superpower even
just experimenting with test ads you often see ,a purchase come through but whether or not it's
a profitable purchase is a different question if ,you're finding it difficult to set up effective
facebook ads i'll leave a link down below to a ,free facebook ads crash course that i teach right
here on youtube for you to check out after this ,video use your personal network have you asked
your friends or family to make a purchase from ,your new store it might actually be worth sharing
your new store on your personal socials and asking ,your friends and family to share it with others
heck go ahead and ask them to make a purchase ,from you more often than not your friends are more
than happy to support your new business at least i ,hope you have decent enough friends who have your
back if not that's okay we're here for you on this ,channel and in the comment section too the point
here is to leverage the resources you have to get ,your store rolling until you're ready to start
selling to new customers and cold traffic review ,your sales page everyone sees the sales product
page before they actually commit to purchasing ,that said product so you have to sort of make
sure it's in tip top shape because your sales is ,only as healthy as your sales page do you have
high quality images that means high resolution ,good lighting no bad edits it should all look
professional when it comes to those product images ,do you have great copy describing your product
and is it also enticing just like no one enjoys ,reading a fully written book you're not going
to hook your customers in with bad product ,descriptions and is the page also visually
structured in a way to be appealing if your ,product page is all over the shop with different
fonts font sizes colors it generally looks like ,a left over frat party well let's be honest no
one's going to buy from that store product reviews ,speaking about the sales page do you also have
product reviews on the sales page because 81 ,percent trust the advice of friends and family
over businesses but are we really surprised at ,that fact social proof is so important nowadays
customers are more skeptical than ever and ,rightly so we want to know the product is
something that we really do need and that ,others have had good experiences with not just
the product itself but more importantly your store ,and your brand but what if you haven't even
made a sale how do you get a product review ,well you could import reviews from aliexpress if
you're drop shipping or you could run a giveaway ,like i said earlier and ask for a review in return
heck you could even give a product to a friend ,or family member and ask them for a review
regardless of how you get your product review ,they're extremely important to achieving more
sales and with more sales that comes in comes more ,reviews it's a flywheel effect where the more
you achieve the more you get check your checkout ,have you run a checkout test yourself before even
launching your store you'd honestly be surprised ,just how many people i've seen say why am
i getting so many add to carts but no sales ,so only then realize that customers can't even
check out because something's wrong with the ,checkout process but this is not going to be you
because you're watching this video so with shopify ,you can actually place a test order by simulating
a transaction all you need to do is head over to ,settings then payments and then on third party
provider select bogus gateway and go ahead and ,place that order where this is bogus man i know
bogus gateway sounds hilarious to me also just ,be sure though to switch back to a real payment
gateway once you've finished testing with that ,bogus gateway payment method so besides testing
the actual payment gateway you also have to make ,sure that the checkout process itself is actually
appealing and optimized you want as little steps ,as possible to go from product to purchase the
checkout process is the only thing between you ,and that interested user to a purchased customer
so spend that time to make sure that your checkout ,flow is bang on and most importantly not to do
with your store but to do with your mentality ,be resilient and don't give up initially like
i mentioned it took me a whole failed store ,so that meant months and months of work money
energy and effort until i was able to get a ,profitable sale i remember my first ever shopify
sale i was driving and i heard this cha-ching ,sound for the first time and found out that it was
my first ever sale on shopify and i was literally ,over the moon that feeling of someone purchasing
from your very own online store with all the work ,you've put into it was so overwhelming satisfying
and motivating so hang in there is my point ,implement what you've learned in this video
and i'm very confident you'll get there also ,if you're as confident in yourself as i am about
