The second-highest priority for Shopify merchants as they prepare for the next selling season? Channel expansion. With 55% of young buyers citing Instagram as their shopping channel of choice, brands with staying power recognize the importance of meeting customers where they are—whether that’s online, on their favorite social platforms, or in-person. Here’s how they’re doing it: 1?? Connecting to new sales channels Shopify merchants can sync their existing product catalogs to top online marketplaces, like Target Plus and eBay, to reach new audiences. The same goes for social platforms, where merchants are using channels like TikTok Shop to sell directly in the app. 2?? Selling internationally If there’s a viable market for a product overseas and a brand isn’t shipping cross-border, someone else will. When merchants leverage our international sales tools, shoppers are automatically redirected to a localized store experience based on their IP address, complete with translations, local currencies and payment methods, even region-specific content and pricing. 3?? Dabbling in physical retail Sixty percent of consumers say they buy small items online but head in-store for larger purchases. Whether or not a permanent retail location is on the roadmap, merchants are dabbling by hosting pop-ups to build community and meet the growing demand for in-person experiences. 4?? Tapping into the creator community Merchants cite influencer marketing as the second-highest priority marketing trend over the next year, and are looking to creator partnerships to build audience trust and increase reach. Shopify Collabs, our in-house influencer marketing tool, connects merchants with creators who can introduce their products to new, highly engaged audiences. Expanding to new channels not only increases reach with target audiences. It can also reduce friction for business owners and their customers. But don’t just take our word for it. Ask merchants, like BK Beauty and Uncle Studios, who scaled their brands with these strategies: https://lnkd.in/gHcwyv9Y

????Shopify team, please pay attention to our situation ???? We have been selling our products on Shopify for more than 6 months! Our products are legitimate and don’t violate any Shopify policy. We don’t have a large number of return requests or chargebacks. We operate as a registered company, have a trademark registration, and many subscribers on our IG account (https://www.instagram.con/dvnt.lingerie) But 2 days ago our website was closed due to a violation we received an email from Shopify ?After reviewing your information and website dvntlingerie.com, we have determined that you are in violation of Section 7 of the Shopify Acceptable Use Policy? ddeacd-2.myshopify.com We conducted our own review of the situation and found that our accounts had been hacked, and someone tried to change our payout bank account to collect our money. We have done extensive work to recover all our accounts that we use for our business. We changed all passwords, set up various security measures for login, and took other steps to make our accounts secure! The problem in this situation is that we can’t speak with a Shopify representative who can help us reactivate our account and Shopify payments, and revert all changes to the way they were before.

Would it be possible for you to provide similar insight reports for Automation, App developers, or other services that Shopify merchants frequently seek out or get the most exposure from? This would be incredibly valuable for us Shopify Partners, as it would help us better understand how to showcase our services/products and potentially tailor our offerings to better meet merchant needs
