Hi James,

Great question! If you’re just getting started there are a lot of different things you can learn. I’d start with the Shopify courses at Shopify Learn. You can learn about topics ranging from the design of your online store to how to market your products!

Do you already run a business that you’re looking to take online or are you starting a new business from scratch?
