  • We all know what's up: BFCM chaos. You're working all day, every day, and the last thing you need is another sales pitch or whitepaper. Yotpo and Shopify want to give you the help you actually need right now. What does it mean? ✨ They’re offering marketers practical support during the busiest season by giving away credit for services that make life easier. Your calendar is full enough. Let them handle dinner, groceries, or life admin while you handle the holiday rush. Put them to work. https://lnkd.in/gX5wtHB2

    Co-Founder, Mateship | Entrepreneur of the Year

    It’s So Hard to Grow a F#$king Startup in the eCommerce Industry Let me tell you why: 🙅♂️The Small Guys Don’t Get a Shot Look at industry panels. Who’s always on stage? The big players who can afford sponsorships and speaking gigs. Meanwhile, the smaller disruptors who could shake things up—get shut out. It’s a pay-to-play system, and it’s holding the entire industry back. 🗣️ People Want Change, But No One’s Willing to Change Everyone talks about disruption, but when push comes to shove, they stick with the same old strategies (particularly in Australia). It’s comfortable, sure—but discomfort is where true innovation thrives. ☀️ Nothing New Under the Sun We’ve nailed the basics: seamless checkout flows, better UX, faster shipping. But what’s next? How many times can you repackage the same ideas and call it innovation? The industry is stuck recycling incremental updates when what it truly needs is a revolution. —— I get it. Events and conferences need sponsorships to keep the lights on, and I respect that. But what if just one panel slot—or even 1% of the agenda—was dedicated to startups and disruptors? Retail Global is already doing this. We are so grateful to receive their Emerging Tech Fellowship Award, where they practise what they preach by actively supporting the little guy. We've seen epic growth through their support. Shout out to all the little guys disrupting the industry one day at a time! Keep pushing 💪 Mateship, Sami Jarrous, Daniel Menezes #startup #founders #ecommerce

    Tech Partnership lead across ANZ. Former Amazon and Microsoft

    A lot of people believe that Partner Managers just go out and get drunk everyday and that is our life in a nutshell. I can say that there is wining and dining that takes place but the partnership game has evolved a fair bit in the decade plus that I have been doing this. I love seeing the playbook being changed and altered as it becomes more strategic and we have to learn and understand new ways to get business done. Yesterday, Mia Axalan and the Maropost team held a partnership event in collaboration with Retail Global that was one of the best I have attended in quite some time. It was a brilliant mix of tech and agency partners who came together to network and also compete. When I say compete I dont mean the traditional way where we are fighting for business but instead on the pickleball courts. I can’t wait to see how all the new connections and reconnecting with established ones will help all of us as we look to 2025 and beyond. Retail Global: Dylan, Hope, and Courtney Cresco Data: Mark Gray Zellis: Tim Davies Starshipit: Kelynn Renals Triple Whale: Adam Saunders Yotpo: Rad Mitic Catch: Olivia C. Stripe: Remy Jansons Side note: be afraid to face Courtney Byrne in pickleball. She is insanely talented #partnerships

    🎾 Pickleball and Partnerships!   Yesterday, SAAS Integrator had a blast at the APAC Maropost Partner Pickleball Tournament, held at the National Pickleball League in Melbourne! Our very own Michael Luu took to the court, representing SAAS Integrator in a fun-filled arvo of friendly competition, intense rallies, and LOTS of laughter.   A few takeaways from the day: - We played pickleball and networked with Maropost partners, making so many awesome connections! - Turns out pickleball isn’t as easy as it looks...but hey, it’s all about the experience, right? 😅 - Shoutout to Michael for being named Best Networker — he was on fire, both on and off the court! 🔥   And of course, nothing says teamwork like cheering each other on and celebrating everyone’s wins (and epic fails) on the court. From new friendships to some memorable candid moments, this event was a perfect reminder of the power of community.   Big thanks to Maropost and Retail Global for hosting such an epic event! Can’t wait for the next one. Until then, we’ll be practising our pickleball skills (or...maybe just sticking to cheering from the sidelines 😉).   Be sure to check the comments for event photos, including a shot of Michael with his 'Best Networker' award, along with a glimpse of attendees networking and enjoying the vibrant atmosphere! Let’s keep building, connecting, and having fun along the way! 🚀   . . . #saasintegrator #maropost #retailglobal #pickleballparty #communitybuilding #retailtech
