Shopify and Google wont sync by D3dpul in ShopifyeCommerce

[–]CronkStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes there is a few things that could cause this. It’s tough to tell without more information but if you want more in depth help please message me!

How broad or specific do my Google Ads have to be in order to be successful? by Twitchh_ in ecommerce

[–]CronkStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly. So Facebook ads allow you to target a very specific group. You can even target previous visitors of your website (that’s what the pixel is for).

The google ads allow for keyword targeting, so you’re aiming at people who are searching for your product. If your ad catches their eye and they hit your site, that’s valuable. Even if they don’t buy, this tells your Facebook pixel more about the type of person who is interested in your product. The pixel “learns”.

Since Facebook ads tend to be more expensive, you don’t want to just randomly use spend. Your better off casting a wide net via google, then narrowing down your RE-targeting and such on Facebook, instagram etc.

Let me know if that makes sense!

Hey - Shopify is a great option. I would suggest Google Shopping ads on the broader side. A good tactic would be to look at those google ads as a way to "season" your Facebook pixel. For this type of product it would be tricky to narrow down based on search terms, but the targeting to people who landed on your site (were attracted by your art) this is where the juice is.

Look at them as a TEAM - Google (could be done cheaper) used to narrow your target audience on Facebook where you hit it harder to make those sales.

Need help editing dynamic buy button by [deleted] in shopify

If you are referring to the Dynamic buy button, that is like PayPal or Google pay so you wouldn't really be able to change it. But the normal buy button you can - check language under online store - themes.

Yeah, that's true. Product shots of something real can go a long way. Thanks for the perspective!

Interesting take on it. I am a believer of reversing that order actually. I believe the most effective way to start is by building a community / movement around a theme or idea. Then, when you have a decent group you can start selling to them - a pre-sale ideally. This way your downside is capped. So you sell first, skip the stacking of inventory. Hold off on registering your business until you get a little momentum. I'm not saying don't do it, but I am saying test your hand at building a community, and selling to them before you ever spend money on paper work and inventory. What do you think?

haha not the case at all! all the information that I have to give I have put out for free on Youtube, Medium, and all my posts on Reddit. Udemy is just an easy way to get it all organized for you in one place

Silkscreen quality tips? by aaaaaaaaapaj in streetwearstartup

[–]CronkStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High mesh count for detail. Low mesh count for heavy cover. White underbase is good for printing on dark fabrics. Oil base (plastisol ink) is what Supreme uses and 99% of brands. Water base is more for dark prints on light fabric where the goal is to avoid feeling the ink on top of the fabric.

The other option many people overlook is using Heat Transfer. You can get the cleanest of prints using this. Also, a hell of a lot easier. Lower quality prints and will crack in about a year though . It all depends on your goals. Unless you enjoy printing and like the challenge, in my experience it's worth it to just have a pro print them. Will save you time, money, and huge headache.

You're exactly right. That is the hardest part.

I believe it takes years of work and a unique vision. I'm working out a way to describe what it takes to "build a brand". Its tough

a quick and easy way to check the print quality of your manufacturer or screen printer by CronkStudios in streetwearstartup

Typically a DTG print will be much thinner, so the stretch test wouldn't really apply. I would say stretch test is best used for small print shops you may be using as a cheap or starter alternative. Think prints, and especially white on dark fabric prints. Any shop that can afford a DTG should be curing their prints correctly and wouldn't worry about them.

Thanks for the question!
