Shopify today published the latest version of Edition, its regular overview of the new product features it has made available to its merchants. As part of this release, I had the exclusive opportunity to speak with Andrius Baranauskas, Shopify's Director of Advertising Products, about Shopify's advertising products and strategy.

Among other things, we discuss:

Why Shopify is building marketing tools for merchants;
What makes Shopify's data relevant for ads targeting;
How Shopify's ad products are structured and how advertisers interface with them;
Shopify's ad products roadmap;
How Shopify's advertising products fit into the broader eCommerce advertising ecosystem.
