Tenía ganas de generar un ingreso extra sin dejar mi trabajo y este curso fue justo lo que necesitaba. Explica de forma muy clara cómo montar y manejar una Smart Store en los ratos libres, sin sentir que te ahogas en tareas. Lo que más me ayudó fue la organización del tiempo y cómo optimizar las publicaciones para que aparezcan más. Apliqué los consejos y en menos de un mes ya tenía mis primeras ventas funcionando en paralelo a mi empleo. Todo está pensado para principiantes y se nota que viene de la experiencia real. Lo recomiendo muchísimo a quien quiera empezar poco a poco.

Ich wollte schon länger ein zweites Standbein neben meinem Vollzeitjob aufbauen, wusste aber nie, wo ich anfangen soll. Der Kurs zeigt sehr realistisch, wie man eine Smart Store nebenbei startet, ohne dass alles über den Kopf wächst. Besonders gut fand ich die Tipps zum Zeitmanagement und wie man die Produktpflege in den Feierabend einbaut. Die Abschnitte zur Optimierung der Angebote haben mir direkt geholfen, meine ersten Verkäufe zu machen. Etwas mehr Tiefe beim Thema Werbung hätte ich mir gewünscht, das kam mir etwas knapp vor. Trotzdem eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die berufsbegleitend starten wollen.
