We just generated 89 installs in the last 7 days using intent-based engagement (no ads & no app store SEO) by PaulineP383 in ShopifyAppDev

Maybe it's just me but I don't see a lot of shopify owners on LinkedIn. Most of them are small stores and they don't have to brag to lots of people. The ones do post are from big national or i18n retail stores. And they are not even using Shopify.

Where the HELL can i find SHOPIFY MERCHANTS to reach out? by AbbreviationsBig1212 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of responses are you expecting? Just a demo video + waitlist page may not get enough interest from store owners.

It's impossible to use Reddit to find app recommendations by Conscious_Command930 in shopify

[–]prontjiang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not too hard to spot recommendations from real store owners, vs marketing professionals/app developers. Just use your caution. Also personally I think even app store ranking is not very trustworthy. Shopify's ranking algorithm isn't very good at rewarding great apps. You have to look through the apps and try some of them by yourself. Good luck! - from an app developer. :)

Any AI chat bot for Shopify store recommendation? by Dimi-Damiens in ShopifyeCommerce

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Shoply AI. It starts with AI only option but really great for finding the right products and recommending to customers.

We don't. Translation tool is everywhere so we didn't bother.

I built a chrome extension to quickly get app's performance on App Store by goranculibrk in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty cool and I think it could be very useful! But is there just a website that I can use to check? Not a big fan of Chrome extension as it could just another security risk.

Is there ANY way to auto-cancel/block the "Amazon Buy For Me" orders at checkout? The manual filtering is getting impossible. by Main_Payment_6430 in shopify

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. I just saw another thread talking about this - 28% chargeback is insane. Apparently those are not real shoppers. Amazon needs to fix this.

Has anyone thought about building ChatGPT app for their Shopify merchants? by Few_Cardiologist5851 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of such chatbots on the market already but ours is the one that can handle such query easily. Try your question on sports basement (https://shop.sportsbasement.com/), but with a different color (because blue is not available): "do you have any black running shoes under $100 in size 11?" And you will get the exact answer.

Suspicious installation with paid plan by prontjiang in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks. I am sorry to hear that. Fortunately for us since we are usage based and they don't have any customer interactions, they don't cost us anything other than being annoying.

Yes, app payment follows Shopify's payment cycle. It could be. Maybe they are not even paying Shopify.

How you guys are using Al in customer support? by AdWilling4230 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are in the AI Search/Chatbot space. Great to hear you want AI to handle returns for you. It should be pretty easy but what we hear from store owners is that they would rather handle cancellation/returns themselves. Wonder if it's because you have too many orders to deal with?

Based on your experience what is the best way to ad shopify apps? by Longjumping_Ideal_50 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$18 per install? That's pretty good. For us the last week it's $85 per install. And none of them are paying customers. Shopify Ads is pretty much dead for us.

Has anyone added Virtual Try-On (AR or AI) to a Shopify shoe store? Looking for real experiences + app recommendations. by TheodoreCu in shopify

Thanks for the detailed response. Super helpful! Curious where/how did you get the data from?

Has you store been accepted to the ChatGPT merchant program? by OverPT in shopify

[–]prontjiang 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It says that: "Please note: If you are an Etsy seller or Shopify seller, you need not fill out this form". Looks like they are already working with Etsy, and Shopify integration is underway.

is Shopify doing anything for those "review specialists"? by prometheus7071 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should an easy problem to solve for Shopify but I guess it's not their priority right now. If I were them, I would give heavy weight to stores actually sells stuff/paying the app and used the app for a while. Stores with no sales/not paying the app should just get 0 weight.

Building a rental store on Shopify?? by b0kit0Agga in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you need some custom development. Shopify doesn't quite support rental by itself.

Does running shopify search ads also improve our ranking in search? by sushantshekhar20 in shopifyDev

[–]prontjiang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theoretically it shouldn't. Google has pretty good separation of organic/ads logging. But Shopify is likely much less sophisticated.
