Business Automation Using Shopify's API That Can Start Immediately

The scale of e-commerce has been on an upward trend, and since the COVID-19 pandemic, more companies have been compelled to expand their sales channels due to increased demand for home-based shopping and decreased sales in physical stores. Currently, the entry of small and medium-sized enterprises into e-commerce is particularly remarkable.

When operating an e-commerce site, acquiring repeat customers is a crucial challenge. This is true for both original e-commerce sites and storefronts on e-commerce malls like Rakuten and Amazon. Since competitors exist worldwide, customers can easily switch to other stores with just a small trigger. It is necessary to improve the overall quality of operations, not just sell good products.
By responding quickly and accurately to orders and inquiries, thoroughly managing inventory, and adjusting marketing guidelines through sales analysis, you can strengthen your operations and expect customer retention. This is where e-commerce support tools come in handy.

Shopify is a platform that allows you to build and manage e-commerce sites, equipped with features for site creation, sales, inventory management, and customer data analysis. It is widely used worldwide due to its high usability and the ability to choose plans according to store size.

When using Shopify, integrating with other apps can improve convenience through automation of operations and synchronization of information. Integration is especially recommended if managing information related to products and inventory becomes challenging due to the operation of e-commerce sites and physical stores, or multiple e-commerce sites.

By using Yoom to integrate Shopify with other apps, you can easily set up automatic notifications and synchronize information with databases. No specialized knowledge of programming is required.
To enhance customer retention through improved operations and service quality, register with Yoom and try integration and automation.

Automatic Notifications for Orders and Shipments

When orders are placed or products are shipped on Shopify, it is possible to automatically notify the details using chat tools.

By automatically sending notifications, you can share the status of orders and shipments in real-time within the team. When different team members are responsible for order processing, shipping tasks, customer support, and billing, smooth information sharing within the team can improve the overall quality of customer support.

Data Update through Database Integration

By integrating with databases used for managing information such as customer details, order information, and inventory, it is possible to update information during Shopify's order and shipping processes. This can be useful for sales analysis materials and backup data.

With Yoom, it is easy to set up automatic chat notifications after adding a database. It is recommended to configure notifications for important information to prevent any oversights.

Product Information Registration

With Yoom, tasks related to product information registration can be easily automated.

By setting up a form for entering product information, you can automate the registration to Shopify from the form's information. Additionally, if integrated with a database, you can append product information to the database and review it collectively later.

Moreover, it is possible to synchronize product information by integrating with other POS systems.
If you are using different systems for e-commerce and physical stores, you can manage everything centrally by automatically synchronizing product information.

Others

Shopify order information and customer information can also be synchronized with marketing tools and payment systems. This can lead to faster marketing and payment processing operations and centralized information management.

Additionally, by synchronizing with task management tools, order and shipping information can be registered as individual tasks for order processing and post-shipment handling. This is expected to reduce the risk of missed or delayed responses.

Aim to Acquire Repeat Customers on Your E-commerce Site with Automatic Information Synchronization through Shopify Integration

We introduced methods to automate operations by integrating Shopify with other apps, using Yoom's templates. By synchronizing information through integration, you can always share the latest information, providing peace of mind even when operating multiple stores.

There are still many operations on Shopify and workflows integrated with other apps that can be automated with Yoom. To improve customer satisfaction and acquire repeat customers, try to minimize manual tasks and enhance the efficiency of your business processes. Take this opportunity to register with Yoom and challenge yourself with automation settings.

Until now, I have experienced office work at specialized trading companies and in the EC industry. The work I was in charge of covered a wide range of tasks, such as sales office work, accounting, general affairs, human resources, and legal affairs. We worked to improve the efficiency of individual tasks, but I think the work could proceed more conveniently by using various support tools and Yoom... I would be happy if I could send out an introduction article on Yoom that makes use of my work experience and help everyone proceed smoothly with their work.
