Shopify brands hate the idea of replatforming. But in the pursuit of growth, it can be necessary to try new tactics. 

Replatforming isn’t easy - the logistics, timing, and potential disruption to business operations can make even the most eager brands drag their feet. But the reality for many Shopify brands and agencies is that in order to really scale, they need to use a platform designed for meaningful growth. That’s where we come in. 

Introducing Shop Sync – a conduit between Shopify and 29 Next that lets you maximize the benefits of both platforms – without the complexity of a migration. 

While Shopify excels at many things, such as product management and storefront operations, it can be restricting for brands that use high-converting marketing funnels and customized checkout experiences. Shopify’s lack of support for that type of performance marketing shows that it's not always the “one size fits all” solution for fast-growing DTC brands. 

Shop Sync overcomes this hurdle by allowing you to keep your existing Shopify setup while tapping into 29 Next's advanced performance marketing functionalities. Let’s explore further.

‍How Does Shop Sync Work?

Merchants with both Shopify and 29 Next accounts can install the Shop Sync app on the 29 Next store to get started. After following the prompts in 29 Next to link your Shopify account, Shop Sync will automatically sync your Shopify product catalogue over to 29 Next. You can then start wiring in your payment gateways and funnels and get sales rolling. 

When a customer completes a purchase through one of those funnels, 29 Next handles the entire payment processing and checkout experience. Behind the scenes, Shop Sync instantly sends this order data to your Shopify store. Your team can continue using Shopify for customer communication, order management, inventory tracking, and shipping. It’s that simple. 

Shop Sync can be a particularly powerful for brands that:

• Want to experiment with custom marketing funnels without disrupting their existing operations
• Need more flexibility with payment processing solutions including recurring billing
• Run complex campaigns that require sophisticated funnel logic like post-checkout upsells and subscriptions

‍Make an Easy Transition to 29 Next

‍The beauty of Shop Sync is that it won’t disrupt your current operations or require extensive training in a new platform. You can start small by creating a single funnel for a specific product or campaign, then scale up as you see results. Meanwhile, your core Shopify operations continue running smoothly, giving you the confidence to grow on 29 Next at your own pace.Brands currently using Shop Sync are seeing the following benefits to their brand and marketing ROI:

• Adding instant MRR via subscription offers (and recurring upsells)
• Boosted conversion rate with totally customized checkout paths
• Increased average order value (AOV) by up to 40%

These improvements aren’t just nice-to-haves; they are the key metrics that drive growth. For brands eager to expand beyond Shopify's limitations and really grow, without the headache of a full migration, Shop Sync is the ideal solution.
