LIVE REPLAY: How To Bulletproof Your Store For Black Friday.

This is a special one: the full recording of our live webinar with Dan Laframboise from Rewind, in the feed now because the clock matters. Black Friday really starts November 1, when your store goes into a change freeze. Shopify backs up its platform, not your store’s data, and there’s no undo button. Dan deletes products live, brings them back, and walks through the 10-question Store Resilience Scorecard. Listen before your freeze.

💡 KEY TAKE-AWAYS:

• Does Shopify actually back up your store? We asked the live audience, and the real answer surprises a lot of merchants
• Why a CSV export isn’t a backup (and what that means for your product photos)
• Who’s most likely to break your Shopify store before Black Friday? Rewind says human error is behind 85% of data loss
• Dan deletes a product on a live stream and brings it back in seconds, then wipes all 39 and runs a bulk restore
• Should you restore one item or roll the whole store back to a date? When you’d use each, and how far back your versions go
• How 11,000 mistakenly edited products came back in 30 minutes
• The 10-question Store Resilience Scorecard, from bulk pricing apps and CSV imports to AI tools, and what your score out of 10 says about your risk
• How a staging store with one-way sync (up to 10 stores) lets you test changes before they touch your live store
• Monitoring that runs your key flows up to checkout every 24 hours, or whenever your theme changes
• Why Black Friday really starts November 1, and what your change freeze should lock down
• Is it too late to add a backup app this close to Black Friday? Dan explains why it isn’t
