Nono, I am very grateful for your feedback! If my website is bad it means that it can be improved and then my conversions will go app and that's great news!
I don't define myself by my design skills so you didn't hurt any feelings :D
I am a bit wary of using Shopify for landing pages because I'm worried it will make it feel even more like a dropshipping enterprise...
But maybe that's the smaller problem if at least my website looks good then!
As sibling comment says, use a website builder instead. Something like shopify will have everything you need (though I’m not massively familiar with it myself).
Another suggestion I have is to focus on the target audience. I skimmed the doc you linked to about uploading images (couldn’t find any extra docs on the site at a glance btw) and it felt geek heavy in terminology.
The shots of the device look nice, but there’s an app for managing it? Is it easy to use? If I buy this device would my wife ever use it or is it too complicated?
Are you actually making these devices yourself? If I were hand making these my starting point would be to sell to friends so I could iterate on the whole thing. There are a lot of people on here talking about ads and marketing but honestly, hustle is how you get started.
