Job Description

What Do We Do

ShopDeck helps e-commerce merchants set up and manage their D2C storefront profitably.

Proposition For Merchants

D2C selling made as easy as selling on marketplaces like Amazon, Flipkart or Myntra

Why Build This

  • India's D2C wave has been limited to venture-funded D2C brands today
  • The art of selling on your own website is not democratised. There are 500k-1M sellers who can sell D2C but can at best sell on marketplaces
  • Philosophically - we feel brand owners should spend most of their time on the product and not on channel optimization
  • Shopify / Status-quo software solve for work-flow management of storefront but don't do enough on helping merchants sell well!

Team And Scale

We're at $8M ARR and had hit profitability earlier in the year. We've recently raised series-B from led by Bessemer Venture Partners (who had famously led Series A for Shopify in 2010) with participation from Elevation Capital, General Catalyst (fka Venture Highway) and Chiratae Ventures.
