When we think of business, we often associate it with its shareholders. Like individuals, businesses exist in an environment and form connections. Some connections directly influence the business, while others, though indirect, are still important. There are a few cases where business founders relied solely on instinct, disregarding environmental factors. Successful entrepreneurs, however, are always mindful of both micro- and macro-environmental factors that impact their success. Next, we’ll present a simplified list of these factors, which we hope you’ll find useful.
Bumper ads give better reach. You can get 2x more impressions and unique users. That's the result we got last year. But don't jump to conclusions. We asked our in-house PPC expert, Vera Ryabinina, which format of advertising to choose.

Adobe urges all customers to upgrade to version 2.4.x to avoid possible security threats and compatibility issues. To ensure that our customers are able to comply with Adobe recommendations, we would like to announce that all technical updates (compatibility with the latest Magento versions and bugfixes) will be provided free of charge as part of the original license agreement.
Customer reviews are the most powerful social proof in online commerce. Products with 1-10 reviews have 52% higher conversions than those without reviews. Should you ask your "silent advocates" to leave reviews? When to ask? How to ask? Answers to these questions along with ready-to-use templates are waiting for you inside.
