Is anything terribly off?

Thanks in advance for your time! πŸ™Œ

  1. Copy: creating your own online store doesn't cost "thousands of dollars". It costs less than 20 bucks a month on most respectable platforms.

  2. The success of your sale is limited by the number of your social media and Whatsapp contacts. That's not a perticularily large audience. So hownis it better than posting on eBay where hundereds of people will see my ad every day?

I'm not actually asking you to get an answer. These points are just some food for thought.

Hey thanks for the feedback! πŸ™Œ

  1. Not true. That is what most respectable platforms' marketing says, but the truth is to get something complete, ready and functional, you need to either learn it yourself or hire someone to do it for you. That is where the thousands of dollars go.
    All those respectable platforms have a community around them of consultants, designers and bla bla bla... And they are not doing it for free.
  2. You are talking about promotion here. The tool helps you create your store online, somewhere your audience can find your products and buy them, not with promotion.
    Aside from that, the audience is not limited as you describe it at all: wherever you can share a link, you can have an audience.

Thanks for the feedback once again! πŸ™Œ

The landing page is great, but the mockups from the store absolutely suck. Is that what the store really looks like? Because it gives early 2000s Word file vibes, and I would never buy anything from there

Given your overall sense of aesthetic - since the landing is really good - I was shocked to see those mockups

The page is nice looking but those store mockups look awful. It goes from a very generic template to an early 2000s item page. You couldn't pay me to make a store look like that. I think that needs to be like your main thing to improve
