Ep 133: The Most Boring Product Update of 2024: Shopify Winter Editions Ben Homer, Senior Solutions Engineer

On this episode I’m breaking down the most boring product update of 2024: Shopify’s Winter Editions with Ben Homer Senior Solutions Engineer at Shopify. We touch on Ben’s journey from agency to tech, the pros and cons of RFPs, Black Friday Cyber Monday stats and how Shopify held up over the period, a deep dive on Edition announcements - specifically, customer accounts, checkout, POS, semantic search and Shopify Flow, and why this Editions release was so so boring.
