Online Store Setup & Product Branding
In this lesson you will
- Take clear product photos
- Write complete listings
A well-presented product listing does the selling for you when there's no salesperson physically present — photos, descriptions, and pricing need to answer every likely question upfront.
- Product photos: Clear, well-lit, multiple angles — a phone camera in good natural light is often enough.
- Product descriptions: Include size/quantity, materials, price, and what makes it worth buying — avoid leaving buyers to guess.
- Store setup basics (Shopify/WooCommerce): Store name, logo, product categories, and a simple, clear navigation so customers find things quickly.
- Consistent branding: Match your store's look to your WhatsApp/social media presence so customers recognize your business everywhere.
Practical Skill: Write a complete product listing (photo plan, description, price) for one real product, following the checklist below.
