There’s a HUGE learning curve when you’re first setting up an online store. From figuring out all the settings and how the technical side works to getting SEO right and optimizing your product pages for higher conversions.

You can spend 38 million hours Googling this stuff, posting questions in forums, contacting help desks, etc. Or you can ask a magical genie to help you get setup and give you all the tips and tricks you need to know.

But where do you find these magical genies? BigCommerce’s one-on-one launch service. Their in-house experts obviously understand the BigCommerce platform, but they’re also trained in ecommerce best practices. So they can give you expert advice on how to optimize your store to get more sales faster.

I know this sounds like an ad for BigCommerce, but I promise they’re not paying me a dime for writing this. I recently got to work with one of their magical genies and was blown away by how helpful he was and how much knowledge he was able to pass on in just one hour.
