Shopify:

The global commerce platform. Build your business with Shopify to sell online, offline and everywhere in between.

After using for several years with two businesses, I can comfortably say I love using Shopify. It is an e-commerce platform that has solutions for just about everything I can imagine so you likely won't grow out of it. There are currently millions of people with a business on Shopify.

Their customer service is extremely helpful and they have several resources you can troubleshoot on your own as well. Shopify also has a POS or point of sale system and capabilities so you can use your business either in your storefront, spa or salon or take it to events and still have your selling capabilities. If you are looking for a new selling platform, I highly recommend Shopify. Click here to check it out!
