SHOPIFY
ECOMMERCE WEBSITES

Why Shopify?

In my 10+ years of eCommerce experience, I've worked on many well-known eCommerce platforms like Magento, WooCommerce, Wix and BluCommerce (WordPress). Still, I think none give you as much flexibility, brand ownership and bang for your buck as Shopify does. While I'll work on other platforms to help my clients troubleshoot digital issues, I now only launch NEW eCommerce websites on Shopify. For businesses with no mid- to long-term eCommerce needs, I might also recommend the Wix platform as an alternative option for temporary or marketing-only websites, depending on the business's needs.

I offer a Lite Digital Consultancy Retainer for when your brand needs ad-hoc digital expertise or help with a complex issue your team hasn't tackled.

My Standard and Enterprise-level Digital Consultancy Retainers are great for medium to large businesses with already established eCommerce channels that wish to migrate to Shopify, need a short-term digital leader or have regular content, expertise and digital review needs.

Shopify eCommerce Projects

Generally speaking, I can manage all aspects of a new site/migration of an existing site to Shopify. The below tasks can be actioned as part of the Standard or Enterprise level retainer package or as a one-off project with a single quote and SOW (statement of work). If your existing digital team can manage specific elements, I'll ensure my time is only spent on tasks that add value to ensure maximum cost-effectiveness. 

INTRO & BRAND EXPLORATION

Typically an hour or two exploration call or face to face meeting with key stakeholders to help understand your top level eCommerce requirements.

PROPOSAL
& COSTS

I'll produce a SOW (Statement of Work) document outlining a proposal with costs and timescales of your new Shopify website.

BRAND
DEEPDIVE

Depending on the project and proposal I'll often carry out a brand exploration deepdive. This typically includes reviewing existing site analytics, customer and product databases.

STAKEHOLDER
REQUIREMENTS

Typically a series of calls depending on the number of teams / channels that will be involved to ensure all business needs are understood. The SOW may change at this point depending on what is unearthed.

If needed I can migrate all of your customer, order and marketing data from your old platform to Shopify or an integrated CDP, ESP, CRM etc of your choice.

Once the concept is approved I'll migrate all of your products across to Shopify and implement /create any user journey improvements previously agreed on as part of your new concept.
