Starting an e-commerce store is not difficult. Thanks to e-commerce platforms, individuals have all the tools they need to build a website right at their fingertips, making it easy to get up and running. However, scaling your e-com store is a whole different story. As your business grows, your needs from the platform you use will as well, which is when you might consider shifting your e-commerce store to a bigger platform.
I’m Daniel Budai, the founder of Budai Media and the host of The Ecom Show. I’d like to invite you to join James Gurd, the founder and CEO of Digital Juggler, and me as we discuss everything an e-commerce business owner needs to know about e-commerce re-platforming.
James is an eCommerce strategy and re-platforming consultant with more than 16 years of experience working with B2C and B2B brands, including House of Fraser, Mars, Samsung, The Wine Society, Victoria Beckham, RSPB, and Dr. Barbara Sturm. He helps organizations deliver e-commerce growth based on realistic plans and budgets.
Before we kick off, I’d like to quickly take a moment to introduce the show to any new listeners tuning in. The Ecom Show is a bi-weekly podcast sponsored by Budai Media.
