The Insane Origin Story of Shopify

Описание: With over 1 billion orders being processed on Shopify so far, and more than $135+ billion in total sales for merchants on the platform as of 2019, the brand is known to be one of the largest e-commerce platforms that have been powering businesses of all sizes to start, grow, and market their online stores.

Most of us are familiar with Shopify as the e-commerce business platform. But the founding story wasn’t really one of intention, but of pure determination and opportunity. This is the story of an entrepreneur who is worth 6 Billion Dollars as of today, Tobias Lütke.

Today, more than 275,000 businesses located in more than 150 countries around the world live on Shopify. The company, today, has more than 1,000 employees, earning $1 billion in 2018 alone. Over the years they have even partnered with e-commerce titans like Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Uber. Brands like Kylie Cosmetics, Rothy's and Allbirds, all use Shopify for their online stores.

Fun fact - Every 52 seconds on Shopify, someone has the experience of getting their first sale.

Shopify has become the platform where one goes from being a builder to being an entrepreneur. In fact, Tobi has his own side-hustle, selling socks if you could believe that. Unfortunately, he refuses to reveal what its brand name is.

Tobi’s story offers a fascinating perspective on what perseverance and hard work look like in the longer run. So to learn more about his journey and how the brand made it, watch the above video till the end.
