B2C: What It Means and How to Sell Direct (2026) - Shopify

Shopify published a 2026 guide on B2C direct-to-consumer selling strategies and implementation. The article covers general B2C concepts and Shopify's platform capabilities for direct sales.
This appears to be evergreen educational content rather than breaking news or policy changes. Sellers already on marketplaces should focus on platform-specific updates rather than general B2C theory.
Educational content proliferation continues as platforms compete for seller attention, but operational value remains in platform-specific updates.
Skip general B2C guides -- focus on marketplace-specific seller resources and policy updates instead.
Prioritize platform announcements from Amazon, Walmart, Target over third-party educational content.
