Description

Ever dreamed of turning your creative ideas into products that people actually buy? In this episode of The Talk, we dive deep into the world of independent designers who’ve done exactly that—using Shopify as their launchpad.

From illustrators and font designers to artists and lifestyle brand founders, we unpack real success stories of creatives who built thriving businesses from scratch. Discover how names like Jeff Sheldon (Ugmonk), Tré Seals (Vocal Type Co.), and Lisa Congdon used Shopify to bring their visions to life—on their own terms.

We explore:

  • Why Shopify resonates with the creative community

  • How visual thinkers build unique, professional shops without coding

  • Smart ways to start selling—physical or digital—without big upfront costs

  • The creative-business balance (yes, it’s possible!)

Whether you're toying with a product idea or ready to launch your collection, this episode is full of insights, motivation, and practical tips. Tune in and get inspired to take your creative career to the next level!

You can try Shopify for free.
