What You Actually Learn Here
Online Store Operations
You'll work with actual e-commerce platforms. Set up product listings, manage inventory systems, process orders. Basic stuff, but done right. We use the same tools real businesses use—Shopify, WooCommerce, payment processors.
Customer Experience Design
People buy from stores they trust. We'll show you how to build that trust through smart navigation, clear product information, and checkout processes that don't frustrate people. It's part design thinking, part common sense.
Digital Marketing Basics
Getting traffic to a store requires understanding search engines, email campaigns, and social media. Not the glamorous influencer stuff—the practical mechanics of reaching customers who might actually need what you're selling.
Analytics and Data
Numbers tell you what's working. We teach you to read sales data, understand conversion rates, and spot patterns in customer behavior. Then you adjust accordingly. It's a skill that takes time but pays off.
Your Learning Journey
Foundation Phase
First six weeks cover the fundamentals. How online retail actually functions, what platforms exist, how payments work. You'll build a basic store from scratch—not a polished one, but functional. That's the point.
Technical Development
Weeks seven through twelve get into the deeper mechanics. Product photography basics, writing descriptions that sell, setting up automated emails, understanding SEO principles. More hands-on projects with feedback from instructors.
Strategy and Growth
The final phase focuses on scaling and optimization. You'll analyze real store data, run A/B tests, manage advertising budgets, handle customer service scenarios. Problems get more complex because that mirrors real work.
Portfolio Project
Last few weeks you create something substantial to show employers. Could be a complete store concept, a marketing campaign analysis, or operational improvements for an existing business. Your choice, based on your interests.
Where People Go After
I started with basically zero technical background. By month four, I was managing product uploads and inventory for a small outdoor gear company. Not glamorous work at first, but it led somewhere.
