What's next for Shopify App
Nowadays everyone is So busy and all of them always try to save some time from least important works like marketing and all. Most of them go for online marketing from amazon gaffers. But It takes a lot of time like 4 to 7 days. Our app will provide the customer with a facility for checking needs to their nearest stores. And can choose a preferable time to collect the goods. Everyone will get particular 5 mins to collect so we don’t have to go to each and every store to check availability and line up at the same store for a long. Thus we can avoid gathering and stop spreading of covid-19. We can charge .5 rupees per item as service charge and earn money from it and after growing we can make startup with it and give jobs to many people like for developing, updating goods and shifting we can also add home delivery facility on the same day.
