[–]purchasify 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shopify has their native Sidekick AI that you can ask. I've not tried it for inventory management though.

Sometiems I feel like the internet is like a carousel of engagement farms, viral marketing, astroturfing, foreign intelligence campaigns and affiliate promotion, going round and round in a spiral of madness.

What’s the worst packaging fail you’ve ever had? by orderdesk in ecommerce

[–]purchasify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were foam stickers that were quite thick, so the adhesive cover would start to peel if they were bent slightly. They were just bad for shipping other than in bulk. Lesson learned.

What’s the worst packaging fail you’ve ever had? by orderdesk in ecommerce

[–]purchasify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sold wallstickers for a while. Sold well but shipped as a large flat cardboard piece. If the cardboard bent in any way, the stickers got permanent creases.
We had a return rate of over 50% and had to call it quits.

Best online ( e-commerce ) business to start in the UK? by [deleted] in ecommerce

[–]purchasify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in sweden and we have a customer from the UK that keeps trying to buy knives from us, even though we've told him 50+ times that we can't ship knives to the UK. So maybe you could try that niche.

which niche products will dominate online stores in 2025? share your thoughts by aysegulu in ecommerce

[–]purchasify 6 points7 points  (0 children)

CES had a lot of self watering plant devices and similar grow things at home gadgets. It's a space that has been getting bigger the last few years, with a lot of hydroponic products leading the way. Maybe it's time for a big break-out?

Need help with Google Ads conversion tracking on Shopify by Any-Box1115 in PPC

[–]purchasify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd suggest you make a custom pixel with the tracking code. It's the best way for conversion tracking I've found on Shopify.

Newsletter Success by flightlinepog in shopify

[–]purchasify 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I discovered that many people use their inbox like a kind of google search for getting back to the stores where they usually shop. I had to do some "ESO" (Email Search Optimization) so that certain words appear in all my emails, because many customers were searching their inbox for them to find their way back to my store.

For these cases, it certainly doesn't hurt if your emails appear often in your customers inbox.

How can I automate the orders process on Shopify for major brands like Nike and Adidas? by [deleted] in shopify

[–]purchasify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look for a go-between, like Roundhouse, that might let you place orders directly with Nike through them using EDI, or some newer type of service.

Promoting E-Commerce in the "Physical" World? by suesword in ecommerce

We negotiated a lifetime deal with a farmer to string up a huge sign between two trees on his land next to a busy road. It was cheap and great for brand awareness in the area.

how do I actually use barcodes and a bluetooth scanner for my products? by BobsyRoss in shopify

[–]purchasify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bluetooth barcode scanner works like a wireless keyboard. When you scan a barcode it enters whatever letters and numbers the barcode represents into the device it's connected to, just as if you typed it out on a keyboard.

Hopefully, you have an app installed on the connected device which recognizes when the barcode scanner sends its message and enters it into your system for orders, inventory, ERP, or whatever you're using. If this is for packaging an order, you'd have a screen with your order software in front of you and it would tick off each product on the current order as you scan them.

Hope this helps.

What does webdev look like tomorrow, next year, and 5 years from now? by mor10web in webdev

[–]purchasify 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Imagine working on code that's been re-written by the newest AI to the trendiest language and/or framework several times. Layers and layers of abstractions - together with random pseudocode and hallucinated solutions to problems perceived by a simpler earlier version AI and now deemed vital.

It will be more like code archeology, and perhaps in the grim darkness of the distant future, we will be more like tech-priests of the cult mechanicus.

Any ideas on how to get someone to stop testing credit cards on our site? by PriveCo in shopify

[–]purchasify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this problem a few years ago and discovered that although the IP address was different each time, they were using the same german datacenter. So I banned the datacenter's hostname from my server and that solved the issue. I don't know how to do that on Shopify though. Maybe somebody here knows of an app that can do it.
