If you\u2019re an active business on Shopify, you\u2019re going to collect a lot of customer information on your website. There are lots of things that you can do with a list of customers on your website. For one, you can send email marketing content to customers, with permission. This can increase your revenues very quickly. For every $1 that you spend on your email marketing, you will generate $38-$44 in revenue. Profile design apps can also come into play.<\/p>\n

Part of the success of these programs is that you have accurate records. For instance, this will include email and customer names. If you don\u2019t have these details, there are several problems.
