Shopify app idea validation

Possibly yes. But I would suggest you to quickly run some ads or advertize in some Shopify related newsletters and build your waitlist before building the actual product.

I also wrote more ideas at Micro SaaS Ideas around Shopify niche and covered some pointers on where you can start marketing the Shpoify products. That can be a good starting point.

You can connect with few agencies to validate the idea who are working on specifically ads space. Here is a link to find out agencies which might help you

I would recommend that you figure out how you're going to reach shopify merchants if you don't already have a network in the shopify ecosystem.

I was exploring the space recently, and I had very little luck getting merchants to just talk to me. I've learned that they are inundated with inbound from agencies, and others trying to sell them things, so I found difficult getting them to respond. There could be a million reasons for this which could be my fault, but wanted to share my experience with it as an outsider trying to get in.

Yes, definitely you should

This is amazing idea, Launch this project as soon as possible

Test the idea, then build the product. I talk about marketing here, maybe you'll find something useful for email marketing here: https://medium.com/@marketinflow/10-email-marketing-sequences-every-e-commerce-business-needs-to-boost-sale-c76f5f7e7ee8

Hey @zakariae_2_0 great work on pitching this idea and thinking about working on it. I think it would be best to do some customer interviews before you create anything.

Have you tried to speak to current shopify users or other potential customers?

How would you be able to differentiate yourself from the marketing features native to Shopify? https://www.shopify.com/ca/market

Hi @zakariae_2_0

I ran your idea in a tool I have created Checkmyidea-IA to evaluate the potential of your idea.

Here the report : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wkMkG6xr2V7k82_kadosUWlpwrWk5L1rGC_yTFb_lxU/edit?usp=share_link

I hope it will give you good insights

Yes it should be a beneficial for sellers like me. I have a store https://innowesy.de/ and I'm looking for this type of app. I hope it will be very helpful and beneficial for all sellers.

Check Shopify dashboard before building that, as you can try to build something that Shopify is about to offer itself natively

The idea is interesting, but as many mentioned before, it is better to do a proper research and see how your target audience is feeling about a product like this.

And then there is the quality and flexibility of the ad making itself. After all, they are going to spend a ton of money on ads and I believe they would be inclined to get a quality output compared to getting it much easier. So, if you can ensure the quality of output that matches other platforms they are currently using and the same level of flexibility that you promised above, there is a good chance it will work out.

Definitely worth building! Social media ads are crucial for businesses today, and your app could make it easier and more efficient for vendors.

Nice!

You can find the right audience on facebook groups for this idea? Ask them for the feedback as well.

I like the idea, but just as @upenv said, post it to your target audience, and see if they're interested enough to sign up for the waitlist.

I think your idea is great, but you first need to conduct proper research because your target audience is vast, and they are spending a significant amount of money daily and monthly.

If you develop this, it will be a fantastic product, and your product will be outstanding.

First, try to see how things will work, how it will be executed, and what the pain points will be for Shopify store owners!

Whom do you plan to target: e-commerce agencies or direct store owners?

This is a great idea, some people use agencies for their ads and Shopify allows creating different staff accounts so they don't necessarily have to give full access to their Shopify account to the agency they just need to create an account for them, so you can have this in your knowledgebase as well if you think it's necessary.

you should build it and if it works double down, if it doesn't then kill it.

don't get caught up in the idea, just try it!

Intersting idea. But why do merchants need this ?

how do showing results in your app helps customer?
