And here is @ElL3Na_ 's top FAV question to answer at the Live Shopify App Show podcast panel presented by @TSupportHeroes & @martincox100 at #DOTDEV this year 🙌 When asked what her best marketing tip is, which channels work best and where she takes inspo for her posts, this is what @ElL3Na_ said -> video below 🎥 (thanks @j_mersinllari for capturing it 🫶 ) And since this is not her full answer, here is a summary of it: • 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗸𝗲𝘆 - if you are not doing something that comes naturally to you - it shows. Find your own way and be consistent. Don't be afraid to experiment - most people don't event try.. • 𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 as what worked for them won't necessarily work for you - find what makes you YOU, mix it up with your product and let it shine through you ☀️ • 𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 - AI can be amazing but only when used right. People are very good at noticing patterns and when they can smell event a hint of AI in your post, they've already scrolled away.. • 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 - if you don't, who will? Features, updates, recaps, case studies, and interesting demo. There is always something worth sharing! • 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 - don't do series, just make sure every piece of content you produce is a stand alone messenger of what you do! Do you agree with @ElL3Na_ ? Share your tips and thoughts in the comments 👀

3 mins before the @consentmo Girls ✨ need to check out from the hotel in Toronto and head to the airport.. The #DOTDEV week, full of events, is behind them and they are making a recap of highlights, favourite moments and the key takeaways they’ll carry into their work ahead. @j_mersinllari and @ElL3Na_ - raw, sleep deprived but full of light, laughter and excitement for what's to come.

#DotDev Insight 5 (no particular order) Ideas are NOTHING… and EVERYTHING I know how it goes. Ideas are trash, a dime a dozen, worthless and execution is everything (though I’m sure a lot of us have executed perfectly on bad ideas with the scars to prove it). This is the accepted wisdom and yet I never bought into it. Maybe it’s my nature but I LOVE ideas! You know that moment when you’re in the thick of 10 different problems, highly stressed, feeling like there’s no way out? And then you take a short walk and it hits you. A new approach that reconciles and simplifies everything and suddenly the path is clear. Magic, right? Let me go further and say it’s divine. I am not a formally religious person but I believe our best ideas are proof that God exists. Others include my daughter’s smile and the beauty of certain landscapes (like the Amalfi Coast). It also explains why we seek ideas in other people. We are looking for the same transcendent spark. Think about when you meet a new person, especially someone in your field. What are you most excited to discover? It’s their ideas. Or how about when you are at a table with your peers and suddenly someone says something that makes everybody who was leaning in pull out their phones. Not to go on social media, but to write down what the person said. After the last day at DotDev I was walking with my co-founder Robert through downtown Toronto. It was chaos because some very high people were acting crazy, tearing down street signs in front of other pedestrians. And yet I’m sure people were more mindful of Robert and me locked into a fiery debate about our roadmap than the vandals. 20k steps later and neither of us knew where we were or how far from home. 6+ years of building together and this can still happen, easily. That is the power of ideas! Here is a pic taken right before the walk started. I’ll never tire of talking to this man. And wouldn’t you know it, it’s also his birthday today. So happy birthday my dear Robert! 🤗 Building @timesact together with you was one of the best ideas I ever had.

Picking another favourite moment from #DOTDEV week 😁 The Live Shopify App Show podcast panel presented by @TSupportHeroes & @martincox100 🙌 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁: @j_mersinllari was late as she went to the 'Ladies who lunch' event so she missed @ElL3Na_ 's part in the panel, BUT managed to get her part in the Q&A 🥳 ..and it was worth it 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗮𝘀: "With all the available tools out there, why should we use your apps when every agency or store owner out there can build their own version that will suit their needs?" 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱: "I see every 3rd post on LinkedIn saying: 'SaaS is dead - everyone can code their own thing.' Well, all adults are expected to cook for themselves, yet we still go to restaurants and order delivery." 🍝 Elena hit the nail on the head: just because you can build something doesn't mean you should. Here is why offloading tech and compliance to specialized apps still wins: • 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 ≠ 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: Creating a tool is easy. Taking responsibility for updates, troubleshooting, and constantly shifting compliance regulations is the hard part. • 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗱𝘁𝗵: As a merchant, your focus should be on product design, branding, and sales - not burning energy on technical maintenance. At the end of the day, it’s about energy distribution. Outsourcing complex tasks like compliance frees you up to focus on what actually grows your business. ✨

A quick glimpse of #DOTDEV week - the morning before DOTDEV day one. @j_mersinllari and @ElL3Na_ were sending little updates like this one to the team. 😄 Since Elena already was at DOTDEV alone last year she wanted Jonida to give the team an honest review of how crazy it is especially with making it to all side events, being jet lagged and this year on top of everything, the airlines lost Elena's luggage, hence she is just wearing gifted merch on this video. 🙈 What you will witness is the dynamic of the @consentmo girls and the result of working 10 years together. Plus the reality of waking up around 5 AM and posting about everything that happened the day before 😅

After the Toronto mornings around #DotDev, back to a Bengaluru morning (sans coffee though). Consider this a nudge to make that India/BLR visit happen this year 😊 #touchgrass

#DotDev 2026 Insight 3 (not in a particular order): The Shopify Catalog API unlock Tobi made it clear in his call to action that partners building on top of the Shopify Catalog API will be the winners going forward. That is because nonlinear growth opportunities are found by reimagining the solution to a problem, not just adjusting the status quo. Shopify knows that, in the era of agentic commerce, new retail surfaces will appear that could become bigger than anything we currently know and use. Only, instead of making all these bets themselves and potentially getting distracted, they have decided to bet on their partners and provide them with the tools to succeed. Because when a partner succeeds, the entire platform succeeds. Just imagine a simple example: An integration into community WhatsApp groups (we have one where we live) where all sorts of activities get planned, many of which involve buying different things. People could simply have their regular discussion and prompt the bot whenever an initiative arises. It could offer suggestions for what to purchase, from where and under what conditions, divide up the payments, place the orders and track them. This was just something that came off the top of my head while writing this, and I’m sure every partner can come up with 10 ideas of their own, probably much better ones. The point is to try, build, be bold and have fun. Not everything is going to make sense or succeed. Just look at the store in this picture. I might not get it, but it’s something new to me. And if it’s something new, you better believe it will one day be powered by @Shopify 😎

すっごく丁寧なレポートが読めて嬉しいです!!知りたかったことがたくさん。特にAIが得意なのは属性が標準化されたカテゴリで、アパレルは今まさに投資している課題という話。 UCPは既定で有効で特別な設定は不要。 #DotDev #shopify https://t.co/Mm9HJcnC2m

A bit of jetlag and social battery charging, getting back to the #DotDev follow-ups from BLR. A non-AI sidekick from BT to get me going. Hope everyone is back home safely post events 🙌

All my memories of #Shopify #DotDev 2026 Toronto 🇨🇦in one video. Loved pre-parties, post-parties, events, talks, and sessions. I am thankful to all Shopify friends I met in-person and exchanged Shopify & AI thoughts.
