Reflections

Reflection Questions:

Q: What was the biggest challenge you faced creating your store?
A: I struggled to find some of the navigation items on when following the instructions, but in general it was very easy to set-up.  I wanted more options on the theme to set the size of the images, but didn't find it.  I also wanted to set the store name directly in the theme, but eventually found it in the settings.
Q: What worked really well when using our platform?
A: The process to go from product images to store catalog is very quick.  Setting a collection to a homepage area and watching it populate the image preview was surprising and convenient for this initial test. 

 

Q: What could be improved when using our platform?
A: The only step that I had to do different than the directions was finding the setting buttons.  It is right there for me to see and it is in a standard place, but I still missed it.  More on me than the design.
Q: How did this experience help you build empathy for our merchants?
A: It helped me appreciate the amount of effort goes into making a nice looking site.   More interesting was the product management needed to setup the sale of a product: weight, quantity, tax information, skus, etc.
