Helping Shopify merchants navigate the Shopify ecosystem for winning outcomes

Hey there! πŸ‘‹

Happy International Women's Day! Wishing you all success in everything you do.

This week, we were featured in Ed Code's video, an author of Shopify tutorials and resources with a 17k followers YouTube channel. The video is useful for those hiring a freelance Shopify developer for the first time. Check it out if you struggle to find a reliable (and honest) developer, as some feel they're overcharged due to inflated time estimates.
