Hi everyone, I'm Eric Shoup. I've been part of eBay's Product Management team for over 3.5 years, and I'm excited to now lead our ProStores team. ProStores was created to take the hassle out of the often-complex task of creating a full ecommerce online store. It's a great option for eBay sellers who want to expand their presence on the web.
I’m pleased to introduce the new ProStores (formally known as Release 8.0). This version features a revamped user interface and a completely redesigned Store Design module to make building a store even easier. You can view a complete rundown of all the changes on our New Features page, but here are a few highlights:
- New centralized location for all of your store design settings and options.
- Design recommendations to help you get the most out of your store.
- Easier editing of your store templates.
- Customizable Store Settings view.
- A redesigned Help module with a new search feature to make it easier to find relevant topics quickly.
For more details, and to learn how ProStores can help you complement your business on eBay with your own web store at your own web address, check out ProStores.com.
Sincerely,
Eric Shoup
Director, ProStores
