I'm back and today's episode is a solo show. I give updates on what I was up to over the summer break and how I intend spending the next quarter. There are going to be some changes in the format of the show - I shed some more light on these changes. --- Back to Shopify...as may already know, I come from a marketing consulting background and initially thought that only serious businesses use Magento for ecommerce. God was I wrong and I take my words back. I am a converted Shopify user now and see why and how it is the fastest growing ecommerce platform today. Here is a summary list of why I was wrong and how Shopify really leads the pack (especially in the startup to growth phase of ecommerce): - It is agile - it is fast - reminds me of wordpress but a whole lot better user experience - it is modular - integration is a breeze - you get shit loads out of the box The LOW DOWN is that you do a lot less technical tinkering and get on with marketing and selling products ---
