How to sell services on Shopify. Hey guys, welcome back to the YouTube channel. Today we'll be taking
0:08
a look at how you can sell services on Shopify. So let's get into it. Now there are a lot of people
0:16
that are looking to create their Shopify stores and you don't understand how are you supposed to
0:23
sell services. Well I'm gonna go through this step by step, it's very easy and very simple
0:29
So first off there is no default way to add services. You are supposed to add services as
0:36
products on Shopify. So this is the first step, don't worry about it, I'm going to show you guys
0:42
exactly how to set it up. But just go ahead and log onto your Shopify account. Once you've logged
0:49
onto your Shopify account, click on products and you can even build collections. Now I won't do
0:56
this, I will be removing any pre-existing ones because for me I'm trying to build a online
1:01
fitness center website and I'm providing online coaching, so I have to sell my services online
1:08
So I don't want to, you know, add any collections on that. But once you have, you know, your product
1:14
section open, you're going to click on add your products and you're going to copy and paste exactly
1:21
what service you're selling. So for me, I'm selling online fitness training or just fitness
1:28
training, you don't even have to, maybe you're providing fitness training, so whatever it is
1:32
I have fitness training, then I have my description and I'm just going to copy and paste it. You're
1:38
going to add it as you normally would for any kind of service. So whatever your service is, just
1:43
normally add all the information. Once you have that, you're going to scroll down. You can choose
1:48
to add media files. So if it's a service where you have some reference images, you can choose to add
1:54
that. If you don't, that's totally up to you as well. Then you're going to add your pricing. Now
1:59
before I get into pricing, I'm going to just customize a little section on my website because
2:07
I want to change the pricing to US dollars and I'm just going to refresh my product page. I'm just
2:15
normally adding it as I would. Copy and paste your description. Now once you've added that, you can
2:22
add your price. So let's say I do this for a $20 for a regular session and maybe I do a cardio plus
2:30
fitness training session, which is $40. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to scroll down. Once
2:35
you've added your price, you can choose to charge tax or not. Then you have your shop location. So
2:41
you have your track quantity. I'm not going to track quantity and below that you have physical
2:47
product. So you can click on digital product or service just like that and you don't have to worry
2:53
about shipping details at checkout. Nothing of that sort will appear to your customers. Now once you do
2:59
that, you can still add multiple variants. So you can click on add options like this and you can
3:06
choose a specific option. Now although the option name is going to look very weird, so you can add
3:12
style and in that you can add things like a cardio plus fitness session as one variant or just fitness
3:18
session and maybe for cardio plus fitness session I sell it at $25 just like that and now I've just
3:28
saved my product and just like that I have created my service. Now if I click on my online store over
3:34
here, go into my product section or my section over here, I have fitness training and this is like my
3:40
service. Our online store is offering you an exciting way of reaching your exercise goals, all of that
3:47
stuff and then I can click on the second variant to get you know the second item like that. I can
3:53
click on buy it now over here and you know you can set up your entire checkout. Now in your page over
4:00
here, if you want to add more information, more details about your service, which I'm pretty sure a
4:05
lot of people try to add but you don't understand how you're supposed to you know fit all of that in
4:11
well if you want to fit all of that in, so if you want to fit more information about your service
4:18
which you definitely might want to do, you guys are going to use Metafield. So I'm going to click
4:24
on show all on the Metafield section and we have multiple different Metafields. I am going to
4:30
remove these pre-existing ones and add new ones and related to services. So to do that, all you
4:36
have to do is click on settings on the bottom left, scroll down, click on custom data and then you have
4:43
your settings. Now in your settings, you're going to go into products and then you have your multiple
4:48
different definitions. So I added these previously but I'm going to remove these because I no longer
4:54
need them and let's say that you want to add your variants or you want to add you know anything that
5:02
you might want to add like your custom field. So maybe you want to add you know a section where
5:09
your customers or your clients are able to add their custom requests to their services to your
5:17
Shopify store. They can directly add it over there and they don't have to you know contact you by
5:22
email and then wait for that entire communication process. Instead directly when they're placing
5:27
their order, they can have this section where they can add you know any customizations they want to
5:32
their service. So you're going to click on add definition, add a name. So you can click on customization
5:39
to service then you're going to select the type. Now this is totally up to you. You can add like a
5:47
page and in that page you can enter like a open field text for people to be able to easily
5:55
enter the text that they want. You can use a pop-up widget as well do this entire thing
6:02
You can also you know refer people to another page where they can you know take a look at the
6:07
variable customizations you do offer. So it's totally up to you. I would usually use like a
6:15
single line text and then I have you know my value of the text that I can add as well. I'm going to
6:21
just click on save and now if I go back onto my page over here, once I've added like my meta field
6:29
I can go onto my online store, click on themes. I'm going to click on customize, click on my products
6:35
page which is actually my service page and go to my default product. I'm going to remove any of the
6:41
pre-existing sections that I don't need anymore and you can click on add block over here and you
6:49
can add you know any kind of block you want like text and when you add text you can click on that
6:54
block on the left side of your screen and you can input more information about your product and then
6:59
you can click on insert dynamic source and you can add any kind of meta field you want. So let's say
7:05
I want to add a specific meta field I can choose to add that over here. You can just overall choose
7:11
to enter more information about your service directly from the website editor and in this way
7:19
you can sell your services on Shopify. So I hope you guys found this video helpful and you are now
