Building Shopify Apps that don't feel like apps. Fish Wishlist. Stork Credit. Omnibus Owl. Product Pelican.

[Native App Co @Native_App_Co]

Why did we built a Wishlist app for @Shopify stores? There's already lots out there. Here's why over 100 stores are using us...

[Native App Co @Native_App_Co]

When we built https://t.co/ZCsCEBwDKA 2.0, we jam packed in everything we could:

- Native accounts tab
- Store credit wallet
- "Buy it again"
- Order History
+ all data lives in Shopify

And it takes 2 minutes to setup on any theme

[Martin Cox @martincox100]

We deliberately held off building too much automation in Product Pelican when we started out. Mainly because we wanted to build trust that our AI content population tools work.

But now, it's time to unleash our Automation library: JOBS

A day in the life of Product Pelican...

- Importing suggested AI search terms from SEMRush to help a merchant generating FAQs that align with the questions people are asking for on ChatGPT

- Setting up a new job template so that Google Merchant Center data gets populated on autopilot

- Testing improvements to our image analysis tools so they run twice as fast and use half the AI credits

There's only a select few who find this sexy, but everything we build into Pelican is aimed at saving Shopify store owners time and making them more money.

As many Fish Wishlist features as we could talk about in 1 minute.

Heading into peak season, a wishlist helps you make customers sticky before, during and after peak trade.

We've also baked in the slickest, easiest customer dashboard for customers.

In a single click, from any page on your site, your customers can view:
- Order History
- "Buy it again"
- Store Credit Balance
- Wishlists
- Saved Collections

It's available on any @Shopify store using https://t.co/ZCsCEBwDKA. And it takes < 5 minutes to set up.

We've decided it's time to make people take our Store Credit app, Stork Credit, seriously.

So we've gotten serious.

New this month:
- Store Credit Email Reminders
- Scheduled Store Credit Drops
- Store Credit Export

[Native App Co @Native_App_Co]

So this video basically says Stork Credit can make any Shopify store as successful as Apple. https://t.co/wWeYaZk2T6

Apple don't throw away their margin on Black Friday, so why should you?

We don't all have the same brand equity as Apple, but we can learn from one simple thing they do on Black Friday every year.

Instead of giving discounts to customers and training them to wait around all year for that discount, they give customers some credit to spend on their NEXT order.

No discount codes. No gift cards. No points.

Real reviews for Product Pelican from retailers all over the world.

[Martin Cox @martincox100]

I think it was worth it?

[Native App Co @Native_App_Co]

That's exactly what Rulesets does. No new platform to log into. No spaghetti workflows to configure. Just the basics, done simply.

If that's you, check out Rulesets in Product Pelican.

When we shipped a merchandising feature for Product Pelican, we proudly built it to NOT be powered by an algorithm.

Why? Most merchants don't actually need one.

Most stores just want simple sorting: new products up top, out of stock at the bottom, favourite brands prioritised.

[Native App Co @Native_App_Co]

One small step for Product Pelican, two giant leaps towards epic product enrichment capabilities.

This is what Product Pelican and Native App Co are all about. Use what works well in Shopify and make it better.

[Martin Cox @martincox100]

If you haven't roadtested Shopify's new collections, you should. It's a massive step in the right direction.

I love almost everything about it. But there is one big gap, the sorting options are still super basic.

But @Native_App_Co had already built a tool that lets you create advanced sorting rules, and it complements the native @Shopify functionality perfectly.

[Martin Cox @martincox100]

I didn't want to create a gimmicky free audit tool for Product Pelican, but I also want @Shopify store owners to be able to see where they can improve their catalogues without having to install an app on their store.

So I built this:
https://t.co/RaIQeiJP4L

It just looks at the publicly available data for your store and shows you where there is room for improvement.

It wont describe your catalogue as "catastrophic" or "totally fucked" just because you have some room for improvement (although if your score is 100 it will set off fireworks and show a family of dancing monkeys).

But it will give you the same measured guidance that we're trying to give people who use Product Pelican.

Good Data = Good Business

The line up for @Shopify DotDev is killer this year, with so much great partner content.

And my little podcast will be part of it too, going live and in person from Toronto.
