Description

This mini course features a full module from my highly-rated paid course 'Shopify for Beginners: Build a Shopify E-commerce Store 2025' which has reached students in over 80 countries since launching earlier this year.


When you’re building your first Shopify store, one of the most powerful ways to make it look polished and professional is by creating custom product and collection templates.

In this beginner-friendly course, we’ll explore how to design templates that bring consistency to your store while giving you flexibility to highlight different products and ranges. You’ll learn how to go beyond the default theme pages and create layouts that suit your brand from a basic free theme, whether it’s a simple product page for everyday items or a collection page designed to showcase a seasonal range or bestsellers.

I’ll guide you step by step, showing you how to work with Shopify’s theme editor to build product and collection templates that you can reuse across your store. By the end, you’ll feel confident setting up unique layouts from your theme's available options, that make your products stand out. You’ll learn how to link them directly to your store without touching a line of code.

This course is perfect if you’re starting from scratch and want to feel in control of how your products and collections are presented from day one.

Master Shopify. Build and Launch Your Online Store

Setting up a Shopify store can feel overwhelming - so many settings, so much to figure out, and so little time when you are trying to get your business off the ground. Whether you are launching your first online store, moving from a marketplace like Etsy or eBay, or struggling to make sense of a Shopify store built for you by someone else, my courses give you the confidence to take control.

Designed for small business owners, my courses are perfect for product based businesses who make and sell their own products and my lessons share a shopkeeper's perspective, from building multiple businesses on the Shopify platform.

Who this course is for:

  • E-Commerce Startups selling their own physical products.
  • Marketplace sellers ready to launch their own e-commerce store.
  • Businesses who need a budget-friendly website without hiring a developer.
  • Marketing and Website employees who manage Shopify stores.
  • Learners who prefer a slowly spoken English accent and human audio.
  • Anyone who feels lost in Shopify settings.
