How can a tech newbie start a successful online business?

[Harttodd45]

Hello everybody, my name is Todd and I am brand new to this. I’m not very savvy with computers and technology as I am a 45-year-old caveman apparently. But I would love some guidance, someone that would be willing to put up some of their time to help somebody That has no idea what they’re doing in this type of space maybe put something together that works. I’m just simply asking for help, and I don’t mind opinions or ideas I just need place to start. Thank you so much for reading this and I hope somebody out there  Has the kindness enough to invest some time to help somebody else become successful as well. Again, thank you for your time

Hi Todd

First, to say it is OK to begin something in the e-commerce world and feel overwhelmed.  And you should start slowly discovering Shopify and all its features. But if you dedicate a year and really focus you will improve so much. But it is not going to be easy. You did not say what kind of products you have,  but if you are thinking of dropshipping, is a big work. If you saw videos that say you can easily get 10, 20 50K a month that is a lie. Setting up dropshipping is easy but getting sales and getting sales month after month needs a lot of dedication and work.

But to get back to basics, the official Help center is the first step:

https://help.shopify.com/en/ and their Youtube Chanel

And a word of notice, people will contact you to help you but there are a lot of scams. So do check people out, make quick Zoom calls, and do not rush.

Wish you luck on your journey as a fellow 44-year-old caveman, for a lot of things 🙂
