One picture or clip beside the argument for buying: a headline, a paragraph, a numbered checklist of reasons and two buttons. External video opens in a popup that loads nothing until it is clicked. This guide shows how to add the Selling Points section to the Dawn theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Dawn's code. Dawn is a free theme by Shopify, known for speed, minimalism, being the Online Store 2.0 reference — and image with text like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Selling Points fits Dawn

Story-telling layouts pairing visuals with copy — splits, overlays, zigzags and card grids for brand and product stories. On Dawn, Selling Points slots in like any built-in section: it inherits the theme's fonts by default, picks up your color choices in the editor, and lives alongside Dawn's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Dawn setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Selling Points” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Image with Text category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Dawn theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Dawn uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Dawn theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Selling Points” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Dawn font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Selling Points work with the Dawn theme?

Yes. Dawn is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Selling Points installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Dawn's theme editor as “SShop:Selling Points”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Selling Points match Dawn's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Dawn's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Selling Points free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Selling Points is free, like every section in the 164-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Dawn theme and keeps working.
