Shopify has always stood by the term Direct to Consumer (D2C). Let’s just say it’s in their DNA.
But in today’s day and age, consumers are longing for more than just visiting a store and buying a variety of products. They want to know their merchant better. More than buying a product, they want to be part of a legacy. And this is where Shopify predicts the future of eCommerce to become a more personal ‘Connect to Consumer’ (C2C).
We as ardent followers of Shopify Plus and also being a Shopify Plus Agency in Singapore are bringing you the Highlights of Shopify Editions – Summer ‘22.
The entire concept of C2C comes from the following pointers:
- Finding customers
- Converting shoppers
- Creating your story
- Building relationships
- Handling your business
- Scaling and building
Shopify Summer ‘22 also covers the following highlighted product releases for the best C2C experience:
- Hydrogen + Oxygen
