Soon you will be able to create a product and save it as a draft. You will be able to return to it and finalize details like a product’s description, preview it on your online store, or have a teammate add important information before the draft goes live.

You can also archive products you’ll no longer sell and more quickly find items you need to access from a prior or seasonal collection.

And we’ve completely revisited how we want to upload products into Shopify and we’ve created a fast add. So what that looks like – let’s pull this up – what that looks like is, particularly on mobile, leaning on the camera to actually make the fast add a lot quicker than it is at the moment.

We’ve stripped down to some really basic fields, just the most essential ones, and we’re using the natural advantage of the camera for things like creating square product shots, something that’s really important in a lot of Shopify themes to save you doing a bunch of re-edits after the fact. You’ll be able to upload products in bulk and manage them. And then excitingly you will also, in the future, be able to work on them in different states.

So instead of just publishing them straight off the bat, which we know a lot of merchants don’t really want to do, you know we see merchants spend anywhere between 2 and 7 goes at actually getting their product information the way they wanted because we all know a really great product page is the difference often between making a sale and not, we’re going to try to make that a lot easier to actually manage those different states along the way.

And so that means creating draft state and in the future also creating an archive state. So that you will be able to manage your business a lot more succinctly, be able to hand those products off to other team members to help them fill in the gaps.

And then when you’re done with those products to be able to actually file them away in a way that allows you to manage your products in a much more organized way. And this will be a godsend, particularly for people who run very large product sets where the product pages can just become totally overwhelming.
