- Promotions – Thanks to Magento 2’s cool promotional tool that allows you to create your own specific rules, it is possible to let your special customers have some wicked discounts on your own terms. This works on different parts of the site and can be controlled by yours truly.
- Merchandising – Magento 2’s drag and drop interface allows you to choose and display only the categories that you really want to use to draw your customers in. The slick Magento design is so focused that you can organise the products and service effortlessly.
- Updates – These can now be scheduled to be released whenever you feel is the best time for them to be shown to your followers and customers.
- Truly international – These days it is common to have customers all over the globe and Magento 2 allows you to manipulate this huge arena with some ease. With a multi-currency backdrop, you will soon be so much better off than before.
