Congrats on getting started, few people actually do. It's a celebration regardless of what happens. Now onto your questions.
1) I used the products myself and had friends asking me lots of questions. Dogfooding at it's best.
2) 3 days after going live I got my first sale.
3) No, except when it came to free shipping.
4) No, all SEO and intentful Facebook Ads
5) No, I used Hubba for pictures and product descriptions. And Unsplash for backgrounds. I am a software engineer that has been on the marketing side for 8+ years, so I know how to write good copy. But it's really not that important. Your products, pictures, and prices do 90% of the selling.
6) If you have a product that people want, and can target them with SEO + ads, you don't need content. I have two blog posts and definitely would love to do more social + content but I limit myself to spending 2 / hour a day on this per night. I am sure that if I invested in content, it would be a good investment. Just need to prioritize based on my self-imposed restrictions at the moment.
7) No hacks. Great products, hassle-free returns, fair prices and fast shipping :)
