The Ultimate Checklist For Your Shopify Online Store

Why do you need a workbook or checklist to set up your Shopify Store?

You are getting ready to launch your Shopify store, but it is very confusing because there are SO MANY moving parts. It is hard to juggle all the details and remember what you added when and where.

Even reading all the blogs, or listening to webinars just creates more confusing because not one follows and shows you the right steps from beginning to end.

So to be really successful with any project, you have a checklist right? You have a shopping list, a recipe list, an exercise list etc. So if you need to reduce stress and streamline the work that needs to get done, you use a checklist.
