Barn2 Plugins

#RoadToCheckoutSummit −84⏳ Excited to announce our second speaker: @KatieKeithBarn2. I’ve known Katie for years, and inviting her to speak at my own conference was a great idea! She’s lovely, shares great case studies, and is an excellent speaker. Plus, we share a similar life path: she moved from a wet barn in the UK to a sunny home in Spain (while I spent 11 years under the Irish rain before moving to Sicily!). Her talk “#ShopifyDiary 365: A Year Building Shopify Apps (And What WooCommerce Can Learn)” is the second Shopify-themed talk after Patrick Rauland’s session I announced the other day (x.com/rmelogli/statu…). At a Woo conference, you must talk about Shopify. But here, the focus is different: Katie’s experience building and marketing Shopify apps over the last 365 days can teach some lessons for... WooCommerce! Katie Keith is the Founder & CEO of @Barn2Plugins, a leading WooCommerce plugin company ($2M/year). She spent the last year expanding into Shopify, sharing lessons publicly under #ShopifyDiary (we are at day #288 if I'm not wrong). She now applies cross-platform insights to help her Woo business get better results, faster. She co-hosts the @WPProductTalk and @DotheWoo podcasts and speaks regularly at WordPress events. This talk promises lots of actionable learnings for WooCommerce—it's only when you see both sides that you can really understand what works, what doesn’t, and why.
