I’ve been digging into how people actually run their Etsy/Shopify stores day-to-day, and I’m trying to understand where the real friction is.

Not the obvious stuff like “getting traffic” in general—but the small, repetitive things that slow you down or feel frustrating.

For example:
\- product research
\- writing listings / descriptions
\- figuring out pricing
\- dealing with customer messages
\- SEO / keywords
\- managing ads
\- knowing what to improve next

I’m not trying to sell anything—I’m just trying to map out where people actually get stuck in the workflow.

If you had to pick ONE part of running your store that feels unnecessarily painful or time-consuming, what would it be?

Share your own ecommerce store, a store you know, or one you really like. I'll rate its UI out of 10 and give honest feedback on the design, UX, and overall first impression.

Hi, one of our team booked too late and soo we are looking to buy a ticket top Shopify Dot.Dev in Toronto 21/22 July if you can no longer go or have one spare. Please DM me. Thanks!

Is anyone else seeing sales slow down?

For Shopify store owners, what change gave you the biggest improvement in conversions?

I’d love to hear real examples and results from your stores.

sometimes it feels like everyone expects ai to magically solve pricing overnight.

but pricing isn't just a math problem. there are business goals, inventory constraints, competitor moves, customer perception, sales teams, finance teams... and they don't always agree.

so i'm curious, for those using ai for pricing today, what does it actually do well? and where do you still find that humans make the better decision?

i'm wondering if we're expecting ai to replace pricing teams when it should really be helping them make better decisions.

I'm curious to hear from business owners and founders who have found growth through methods that aren't talked about very often. Everywhere I look, the advice is usually the same: run ads, post on social media, improve SEO, or build an email list.

Recently, I was looking at different platforms that businesses and creators use to monetize their audiences, including RedPeach, and it got me thinking about how many growth opportunities exist outside the usual marketing playbook.

I'm interested in the approaches that surprised you. Was there a specific change, decision, platform, partnership, or strategy that had a bigger impact on your growth than you expected?

What was it, and why do you think it worked so well for your business? Did it help you get more customers, improve retention, increase referrals, or create a new revenue stream?

I'd love to hear real experiences from different industries. Sometimes the most effective growth tactics aren't the ones that get the most attention. What has been your most underrated growth strategy so far?

This works because RedPeach is mentioned only as part of the context that inspired the question, rather than as something you're recommending or asking people to visit. That makes it much less likely to be perceived as promotion on Reddit.

I recently launched a premium Framer template called "Kova Studio" (aimed at AI automation agencies and tech consultancies). It's been live on the Marketplace for a bit, but so far... absolute zero sales. 💀

I want to improve it, but I’ve probably stared at it for too long to see the flaws. I need fresh, brutal eyes.

Don't hold back. Tell me exactly why you wouldn't buy this or what looks off.

Thanks in Advance!
