No one knows you exist.

First, get the traffic. Here’s how I do it.

The breakdown

Four ways customers find a store.

If no one knows you exist, how can they buy from you? How would they know you sell the exact product they’re looking for? This is the first thing to fix, and here’s what I do that still works for me today.

01 Get found. A Shopify sales dashboard at $0 with zero orders and zero sessions, and the four channels: Social, Ads, SEO, Agents.

01.1

Social media

Organic content, like this video. It’s free.

It lets potential buyers see your product in action, along with all the other benefits of building an online audience.

Social media. The Handsome Calavera profile and a post for newly stocked Mexican silver. Organic content, like this video. Free.

Ads

Ads are pay to win.

It’s basically a cheat code because it’s highly effective. You get to show your product to the people that billion-dollar algorithms think are most likely to give you their money.

A huge portion of their business model is putting your product in front of their users, but it does cost money. If you have the budget to spend, there’s really no reason not to run ads.

Ads are pay to win. A grid of likely buyers picked by the algorithm, a sponsored Handsome Calavera ad, and a budget slider.

SEO

Two kinds of free traffic.

There are two types that matter. Organic search: when someone searches on Google and gets a list of websites. And organic shopping: Google’s ecommerce product listings.

How you get on each channel differs, but both bring in free traffic from Google without spending money on ads.

Two kinds of free traffic. A Google search for real Mexican silver chains with an organic search result and organic shopping listings. $0 ad spend.

Agents

As easy as hitting publish.

People are increasingly consulting AI before making a purchase. Only a few things separate your products surfacing instead of your competitors’.

Shopify makes getting in front of agents as easy as hitting publish.

Agents. An AI chat answering “find me real mexican silver chains” with a Handsome Calavera chain, next to a Shopify product with a Publish button.
