Earlier this year, I was fortunate to meet Chris at the WooCommerce brand research conference call.

Chris University graduates to attack academic and art. He first thought he would become a science fiction/fantasy illustrator, but soon he knew that he was better than painting than painting. When he leaves artAt school, the network development industry was taking off; he taught himself
encoding, dividing Photoshop documents, and turning them into a website.
In 2003, when he and his wife’s family members died one after another, they turned to art. Why do people create art when sadness?
\”This is the middle finger of death, also a way of life, response and help family response \”He explained.

In the process, he found great comfort, and he turned to help others commemorate the people they loved, mainly through commission and ashes.

Why choose woocommerce?
\”Hello. I will add some plug -in to WordPress, now I have an e -commerce store.\”
This is how Chris describes WoOOCOMMERCE. He listed the most assets of ease of use, flexibility, and various types. The burden ability is another key factor in his decision. From the start of the solution to all the work of ETSY, he believes that \”the cost you obtained from WordPress and Woocommerce, in most cases, you cannot do better. If needed, you can customize in it. \”
Some examples of commemorative art: Portrait portrait and antiques
It can hang your registration without having to use ETSY, and sell things online, which is really great. Woocommerce is affordable, updated regularly, and keeps with what happened on the Internet.
\”Shopify tries to make things super simple. ETSY is very easy to use. How to combine the WordPress website is technical. Make WooCommerce work require more technical skills, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading,. Research and understanding. Woocommerce is like Robin Han: it provides a competitive way for small companies, \”he said.
