1 SINGLE PAYMENT
If you've been thinking about starting an online business, or perhaps you've tried to start your own online store, it can be really frustrating to see people who have come from nowhere to making multiple six figures per year. When you look at some of our students, one of them is just 17 years old and did over $500,000 in sales in a few months while still in high school.
If you're newer to ecommerce, seeing other people’s revenue numbers can be totally intimidating.
You see people with beautiful looking social media feeds and clever products, but you don't even know where to start, let alone really believe that you can do it too.
No, you don’t need to leave your job. In fact, we highly suggest you don’t until you get enough income from your online store so you can make the switch smoothly without putting your family and lifestyle at risk. You can get started with as little as 1 hour a week, and scale up from there as you build confidence.
Note: Gretta worked full time when she was launching her first business. You can, too. There’s no need to take unnecessary risks.
The entire course curriculum is outlined here.
This explains exactly what’s in each section of the program.
There’s no other program that walks you through exactly what you need to know to start an online store fast, written by someone who has built several 7-figure ecommerce businesses from scratch. What’s more, everything has been broken down in step-by-step detail with real action plans including finding your niche, getting customers fast, the mindset required, getting ideas for content, dealing with cashflow in the early stages and how to scale fast.
Let’s face it, creating your own physical product business from scratch can be extremely intimidating. Start & Scale Your Online store walks you through the necessary steps to develop your idea, validate your idea, produce and manufacture your product and make sure it sells to an audience of hungry buyers. Then, it shows you how to scale up your company.
Yes, this is a no-fluff program. You’ll get “the how,” together with real specifics that explain everything in step-by-step detail. What’s more, there are real action plans so you know exactly what to do. Nothing has been left to chance.
YES! YES! YES! That's the beauty of an online store. We have people all of the world from America, to Asia, to Europe to Africa and everywhere in between. If you have an internet connection and a smart device... you are in business!
Then you are in THE RIGHT PLACE! That's why we called this "Start" and Scale. We have a master mentor who will show you how to tap into hot and trending ideas, even if you have NO IDEA. You just bring the attitude, we will bring the skill. If this is you, then it's time to join.
You just join up, and let us know their details. And we will give them full access. Simple. This is an insane offer. Right now you can get two licenses for the price of one - that's just nuts for what you will get.
Yes! Gretta covers off her tips and process for social media and also using Influencers. This has been a key to seeing success in her businesses, so we have made sure that it is thoroughly covered off in the course. We're really excited you will be joining us for the next intake of the Start and Scale Course
In the Start and Scale course we recommend and cover how to set-up an online store using Shopify - this is because it is the platform that Gretta van Riel uses for all her businesses. We think it's powerful, cheap and easy-to-use. If you would like to use another platform, then that is completely OK! It's not about the tool, it's about the process and the strategy.
The main thing is about how you can SCALE your sales. Doesn't matter what platform you do it on.
We understand accountability, encouragement, guidance and validation are all part of the “secret sauce” that help you follow through on the course.
So as soon as you register, you’ll be given BONUS access to a special closed-door Facebook group where you’ll find your tribe who can help you along the journey from where you are now to building a profitable online store. This collaboration is priceless.
