Stores that load fast and reconcile every order.

Custom Shopify themes, Plus and B2B builds, and migrations from WooCommerce, Magento or BigCommerce where the accountant finds nothing to fix. We measure speed in the field and keep the app list short on purpose.

Fit and scope

Is a Shopify build the right project?

Good fit if

  • You want hosted checkout, payments and security without running servers
  • Your team runs the store day to day and edits merchandising without a developer
  • You are moving from WooCommerce, Magento or BigCommerce and need every order accounted for
  • You need Plus features such as checkout extensions, B2B catalogs or expansion stores

Not a fit if

  • You need full control of checkout logic on a standard plan
  • Your data rules require a store on servers you host
  • You want twenty apps installed without a review of what each one costs
  • You need a launch in the six weeks before your peak season
Platform fit

Shopify or WooCommerce? Score it, don't guess.

We build both. The right answer depends on catalog, fulfillment and who runs the store day to day.

  • Subscriptions, memberships, B2B pricing
  • Speed work that survives plugin updates

[04b] Shopify Plus

Plus and B2B, when the catalog gets serious.

Checkout extensibility, Shopify Functions for discounts and shipping, company accounts and price lists for wholesale, multiple storefronts and markets. Scoped as sections of this service until you need a dedicated team.

  • Checkout UI extensions and Functions
  • B2B company accounts, catalogs, net terms
  • Markets, multi-currency, expansion stores
How it works

We never launch on a Friday, before a sale, or during your peak season.

Questions

Store owners ask us these first.

Will we lose rankings or orders when we migrate?

Not if the redirect map and reconciliation are done properly, which is the core of our migration scope. Every legacy URL is mapped and every order, customer and product is matched to the source before DNS changes.

How many apps is too many?

There is no fixed number. Each app can add scripts to every page and another bill to every month. We keep the apps that earn their place, write down why, and measure what each one costs in load time.

Do you build on Dawn or custom themes?

Both. A disciplined Dawn build suits smaller catalogs and budgets. Custom themes pay off when merchandising rules, B2B or brand requirements outgrow it.

Can you launch before Black Friday?

Only if we start by August. We don't launch in the six weeks before your peak, and we will tell you that on the first call.

Do we need Shopify Plus?

Most stores can start on a standard plan. Plus earns its cost when you need checkout extensions, Shopify Functions, B2B company accounts or several expansion stores. Plan features change, so we check the current terms against your scope during discovery.

Can you work on our current theme instead of replacing it?

Yes. Scope A starts with an audit of the theme and the apps around it. If the theme is sound, we fix templates, sections and speed in place. If it fights every change, we show you why a rebuild costs less to run.

How do you test checkout?

On a development store we place test orders for every payment method, discount type, shipping zone and tax case in scope. At launch we run a few real orders on the live store and refund them. Every result goes into the launch checklist.

Can you connect our ERP, 3PL or accounting system?

Usually, through the vendor's app or API. We scope each integration, test it end to end with sample orders, and document what syncs, how often, and what happens when a sync fails.

Who owns the store and the theme?

You do. The store, apps and billing stay in your Shopify account, and the theme code lives in a repository you own. We work through staff access that you control and can remove at any time.

What happens after launch?

Scopes B and C include 14 days of monitoring. After that you can move to a monthly care plan, call us for projects, or run the store with the handoff notes. Ongoing SEO and marketing campaigns are run by our sister agency BizAttic.
