Which to pick

Go from product research and store setup to paid ads, order fulfilment and customer handling: launch a Shopify store, work with suppliers, run Meta and Google campaigns, and sell on Amazon and Flipkart.

  • Explain the business model and calculate whether a product is worth selling
  • A product research sheet with at least three tested product ideas
  • A supplier comparison sheet and a clear fulfilment process

Pick UI/UX Design if…

Learn to research users, plan journeys, build wireframes, create high-fidelity interfaces in Figma and test prototypes, the same workflow product teams use.

  • Explain design roles and the product lifecycle clearly in an interview
  • Turn user needs into clear design goals
  • Structure an app or website so users find things easily
