Why it matters
A cheap theme install is not a store that sells
Most Shopify stores that struggle were not built badly on purpose. Someone installed a theme, uploaded products and switched on payments. The store works, but it does not sell, because nobody planned how a visitor gets from the first screen to the checkout.
The common gaps are always the same: product pages that do not answer the questions buyers ask, collections that are hard to browse on a phone, shipping rates that surprise people at checkout, missing returns and privacy pages, and no tracking, so you never find out what is going wrong.
We build the store the other way round. We start with your products, your customers and how you plan to get traffic (social media, ads, marketplaces or Google), then design every page to move that visitor towards an order.

Handover
A recorded walkthrough of your admin, plus support after launch if you want us to keep running it.
Timeline: A typical store with up to 50 products takes 2 to 4 weeks from the approved plan. Larger catalogues, custom features or migrations from another platform take longer, and you get the exact timeline in your plan before you pay anything.

FAQ
Questions we hear often
How much does a Shopify store cost in the UK?
It depends on the number of products, the design work and any custom features. You get a fixed price in your plan after a free call. Separately, you pay Shopify for your plan and any paid apps, directly to Shopify.
Can you build my Shopify store if I already have products and a logo?
Yes, that is the most common starting point. If you do not have a logo or product photos yet, we can tell you what you need and point you to options that fit your budget.
Do I need a UK company to open a Shopify store?
No. You can start as a sole trader. Many sellers form a limited company later for tax and payment reasons, and we can help with that through our UK company formation service.
Can you move my store from WooCommerce, Wix or another platform?
Yes. We move products, customers and order history where the platform allows it, and set up redirects so your existing Google rankings are not lost.
Will my store work on mobile?
Yes. We design for mobile first, because that is where most social and ad traffic comes from, then check every page on desktop too.
What happens after launch?
You get a recorded walkthrough of your Shopify admin. If you would rather not run it yourself, we can manage products, offers and ads for you on a monthly basis.
