Amazon Launchpad Program:

The Amazon Launchpad program is designed to help vendors get their products noticed on Amazon, especially when competing against larger, well-established brands. The program offers various marketing tools, such as a dedicated storefront, search relevancy, reviews, and extra traffic, to drive visibility and ultimately sales. To be eligible for the program, vendors must meet certain criteria, including having a physical product, being funded by a venture capitalist, incubator, or crowdfunding site, and having their product available or in the manufacturing process.

Vendor vs. Seller:

One of the main questions asked during the webinar was the difference between a vendor and a seller on Amazon. To participate in the Amazon Launchpad program, vendors must have a vendor relationship with Amazon, which means Amazon orders the product directly from the vendor, handles logistics, and takes care of customer service. Sellers, on the other hand, fulfill the orders themselves and are responsible

How to automate a Sale event in Shopify to increase sales

In this video, Edwin Anthony discusses how to create automatic events, specifically for Labor Day, using Launchpad, a software exclusive to Shopify Plus. However, he also provides alternatives for those who do not have Shopify Plus.

Steps:

1. Create an automatic discount code in the discount codes section, using the amount off of the order option, with a minimum order of $1. Set the start date for September 2nd at 12 AM and the end date for September 5th at 11:59 PM.

2. Duplicate your current live theme and work off of the backup theme. Customize the static banner for both desktop and mobile, using high-resolution images and coding the verbiage instead of putting it in the image. Hide the video banner by clicking on the eyeball icon with a strike through it.

3. For those with Shopify Plus, create a Launchpad event, labeling it Labor Day 25% off 2022 and enabling theme switching during the event. Choose the Labor Day sale theme for the event and revert back to the original theme after the event ends. Set the start and end dates and times.

4. For those without Shopify Plus, manually swap the themes at midnight on Friday when the event starts.

5. Use Launchpad or the discount codes section to view the historical data of your event, such as how many people used the discount or how many orders were made.

By following these steps, you can create an automatic event for Labor Day using Launchpad or the discount codes section. This allows for a seamless experience for customers and less stress for you as a seller. Whether you have Shopify Plus or not, there is a way to make this work for you.

Shopify Theme Development EP04 - Staging & Workflow

Hello and welcome to the final video in our series on Shopify theme development. In this video, we will be discussing the importance of workflow and how to make changes to your Shopify store without breaking it.

Workflow:

As a Shopify seller, you may have wanted to integrate a third-party widget that required a small code change in your theme. This is where workflow becomes important. If you are just adding a small snippet of code, duplicating your live theme and making changes to the new dev theme is a basic way of changing your theme code. However, if you are developing a whole new section and including it on a specific page, it is important to stage and work on the new version in private.

Examples of Workflow:

1. Basic Workflow: Simply make the change if it's a snippet of code you're inserting or a new page you're writing, then hit publish when ready.

2. Stage your theme code: Duplicate your live theme and work on the new version in private.

3. Create a whole new store: Duplicate your store data onto the new store, work on all your changes there, and then move the new theme and any store data modifications to your live store when ready to go live.

Version Control:

Version control is important in tracking changes during software development. Using Git and Theme Kit in your workflow is highly recommended, but it requires an understanding of how Git works.

In this series, we have covered what a theme is, where it sits in the Shopify environment, the data contained in your theme, how to navigate your theme structure, and finally, the importance of workflow and version control. As a Shopify seller, it is important to make changes in a routine and structured way so that you do not break your storefront every time you want to make changes to your theme. Thank you for watching, and let us know in the comments below what changes you would like to make to your Shopify store.
