Don’t let the costume distract you from what this @ecommcowboy clip captures: a guiding principle behind how we build at @SegunoSoftware.

We meet Shopify merchants where they already work, and our evolution with Canva is a great example.

First, we brought Canva into the Seguno editor so merchants could create graphics without switching tools.

Then, we built Shopify Connect for Canva, giving merchants direct access to their Shopify product images, names, links, and prices within Canva.

Now, they can design an entire email in Canva and publish it directly to Seguno as a newsletter, template, or automation.

Each of these developments was meant to free up Shopify merchants’ time by integrating with their workflows. We’ll keep building around how merchants work, Canva and beyond.

My co-founder, @marcbaumbach, has a habit of shipping customer requests the same day. Sometimes, even while they're still chatting with support.

It's a pretty magical experience for customers.

It often happens on a Friday, so it became a running joke. We’d ask, “Is this going to be a Free-for-All Friday?” whenever something popped up.

Well, we recently made Free-for-All Friday (FFAF) a real thing for the whole company!

Monday through Thursday, we focus on major initiatives. Fridays are reserved for things that are harder to prioritize, experimenting with new ideas, knocking out customer requests, and unplanned work added to our plate by partners.

As we say, shavings make a pile.

We're only a few weeks in, but it's been awesome to see the team embrace it. My favorite random project was a Mac menu bar app that displays some company metrics, because every founder loves staring at their revenue. :)

FFAF gives us room to build even more momentum without distracting our big initiatives... What's been on your mind for too long? Today's a great day to check it off. 🤘

We always host a Segunoween party with food, games, and a costume contest.

Today's costume was an obvious choice.

I had to dress up as the legend, @chrislukehall.

Right after today's festivities, I rolled into our Camera Eye recording room and joined @ecommcowboy to talk about our recent @canva launch and @Shopify editions.

How'd I do? 🤠 🎃 🤘

We work where you work. Seamlessly.

Shopify? Canva? Claude/ChatGPT?
Checkity check check.

The way you can jump between Seguno and Canva as part of your normal workflow, choose where to publish, and then keep updating the same emails makes this buttery smooth...

And be sure to pair this with our Shopify Connect app in Canva for the full experience! 🤘

Launching Seguno Email’s Sidekick integration was just the start. Sidekick now works with Bulk Discount Code Bot, too. You can create codes or ask about discount sets without leaving Shopify.

Shopify is the operating system. Sidekick is becoming the interface.

Fewer steps. Faster outcomes.
