Shopify is the world's most popular eCommerce platform for small businesses, and with that comes an enormous marketplace of apps that make their software even better.
However, with such a large marketplace, there is a lot to sift through. Here are our suggestions on what apps you should take a look at first.
1. Seguno Email Marketing
Everyone needs email marketing, but when you're first starting out it needs to be easy, efficient and effective. Seguno is a great option to consider.

3. PageFly Landing Page Builder

5. CX Video for Thanking Customers (and seeing them come back for more)
Yes, you read it correctly, we believe every Shopify store, particularly new stores, should include CX Video in their plans from day 1, as ensuring every new customer is a loyal one with plenty of repeat purchases greatly helps businesses get up and running.
When you're first starting out, it costs a huge amount to acquire a customer, and initially your sales will be fairly sporadic.
It's also common that stores have a 90% drop-off rate from first to second time purchases... in other words, only 1in 10 shoppers come back - which is crazy when you think about the cost of getting them in the first place.
Key Highlights
Send 1:1 private thank-you videos to your customers that boost their chances of repurchasing by 40%.
Boost your ongoing marketing efforts as customers are more engaged in what you send them.
Includes mobile app and complete integration with Shopify to ensure store owners can quickly and easily send videos to each of their customers
