YOUR SHOPIFY STORE

A lot goes into the decision to sell direct to customers.   The same is true for setting up a Shopify store.

When you contact us about a new store, we’ll schedule a time to talk through what you are looking for in a store. We want to understand what you want from a store, your goals, and any special needs you might have for your store.  We’d like to get to know you, your business and how you want your store to work.  If you have clear ideas, or if you “just don’t know”, we’ll work with you to determine what you need, and if we are a good fit.

Once we agree to move forward, we will quote you a “not to exceed” price for the work to build your store.

We ask for 50% of the total up front and the remainder of the cost at the “go live” of the store.
