What is eCommerce Fastlane: Shopify Growth Strategies—Where AI Efficiency Meets Human Connection?

Running a Shopify store? Success isn't about finding the right app. It's about knowing which strategies actually work at your stage of growth.

I'm Steve Hutt. I've sold on eBay out of my garage, co-founded and exited VisionPros.com, a DTC contact lens retailer, and spent six years at Shopify as a Senior Merchant Success Manager helping more than 100 brands, including Dr. Squatch, Tentree, Bulletproof Coffee, Salt & Straw, MUD/WTR and Bokksu.

Here's the idea behind the show. Shopify handles roughly 80% of what a store needs really well. The other 20% comes from apps, marketing platforms and agency partners with deep, niche expertise. Every week I sit down with the founders and builders behind those tools to dig into the specific problem they set out to solve and how they solved it, so you can spot your own store's problem and a possible fix.

Since 2018 the show has published nearly 500 episodes and passed 3 million downloads. Whether you're chasing your first sale or scaling past eight figures, you'll get stage-aware strategies on retention, AI tools, digital marketing and the operational work that cuts overwhelm.

eCommerce Fastlane is an independent show from Fastlane Media Inc. It is not owned or sponsored by Shopify.
