Getting Started Checklist

To get started with your new shop you should first set up the basics. Start by going to your Shop Account in the Seller Dashboard:

> Click on the Shop Settings Tab

Enter Your Shop Name, Email and Address
Make sure to connect your Stripe Account so that you can get paid! (http://help.goimagine.com/articles/51318-connecting-to-stripe)

Shop Tagline: This should be a short line about your shop. Something like "Festive top hats for any occasion!"
Facebook URL: The link to your Facebook page
Instagram URL: The link to your Instagram page
Twitter URL: The link to your Twitter page
Pinterest URL: The link to your Pinterest page
Shop Announcement: This is where you can announce a sale or special deal in your shop. You could also put a short welcome note or say something nice.

If desired, integrate Google Analytics to track visitors to your site. (http://help.goimagine.com/articles/59390-google-analytics-setup)

Meet the Maker - This is where you tell a bit about you and your shop. Introduce yourself to the buyer, let your personality shine and help them get to know you. Remember, people are buying handmade because they are buying a piece of the artist.

Make sure to set the terms for buyers purchasing from your store. Including:
- Processing Time: Make sure to let the buyer know how long it will take for the product to be shipped. For instance, if it takes you 3-5 Days to create the product before it's shipping be sure to let them know.
- Return Policy: Do you accept returns? If so, how long does the buyer have to return the product?
- Care Instructions: If you are selling something that needs to be routinely cleaned or cared for are their instructions the buyer should know?
- FAQ's: Is there any questions your buyers often ask? If so, get ahead of it by answer frequently asked questions in your terms.
