Whether you're already offering Shopify or thinking about adding it, there's a smarter way.

  • Wrestling with theme files and Liquid syntax (we speak fluent Shopify code)
  • Playing app roulette trying to find the right tools (we already know which ones work)
  • Debugging why the cart won't update or the mobile menu looks weird
  • Setting up complex product structures, variants, and inventory rules
  • Configuring all the boring-but-essential backend stuff (payments, shipping, taxes, domains)

Maybe you're currently building Shopify stores yourself and drowning in Liquid code. Or maybe you've been turning down e-commerce projects because you don't know Shopify. Either way, you're leaving money on the table.

Here's what gets to stay off your plate:

By partnering with us for development, you stay in your zone of genius: Designing beautiful websites. From simple theme customizations to fully custom Shopify Plus stores, we've got you covered on projects of any size.

Zero Shopify Experience? Not a Problem.

Your clients don't care that you're a Shopify expert. They care that their store looks incredible and actually works. You can deliver that without ever opening the Shopify builder.

Here's the deal: e-commerce is where the money is right now. Your clients are launching product lines, pivoting to online retail, adding revenue streams. And if you keep saying "I don't do Shopify," you're literally sending money to other designers.

The brilliant part? You already have everything you need to offer Shopify services. You just need us to handle the platform-specific stuff.

Design beautiful stores. Leave the platform expertise to us.

You're a designer, not a developer. Let's keep it that way.

Stop Googling "how to add metafields in Shopify" at 2am or digging through help docs just to figure out basic functionality

Stop turning down e-commerce projects because you don't know Liquid or are worried about the technical learning curve

Skip the tedious backend setup—product uploads, variant structures, app configurations, payment gateways, and all that boring stuff

No more panic when your client asks for subscriptions, wholesale pricing, or custom features you have no idea how to build

Forget about unreliable developers who miss deadlines, ghost during revisions, or don't quite get your vision right

Sleep easy knowing your design is in expert hands and will be delivered on time, exactly as you envisioned

FAQs

How long does the development process take?

This depends on the scope of the site and the development package you choose. Basic sites can take 2-3 weeks, Standard sites 3-4 weeks, and Premium/Complex sites can take 4-6 weeks. 

How should I deliver my mockup files?

We prefer XD or Figma files. We also accept Illustrator and Photoshop files as well. We require the full file, not just the developer link. Our team will provide a shared Google Drive folder for you to place these files in. All pages of your site are due by your start date.

What happens if I book a start date but am not ready in time?

Our process runs on a very strict timeline, so if you are unable to get everything to us on time, we will look at our next available date open for your project. There is also a delay fee that you will incur if this happens.

I'm nervous about outsourcing! How do I know this is the right move?

We totally get it. Outsourcing big pieces of your work is hard and scary, but know that you are in good hands! We are an experienced team of designer/developers that can't wait to take the work off your plate and help you create more time and space in your business.

How often will we communicate during a development project?

We love to communicate throughout the process and are always available for any questions you have! You will hear from us at least 4 times while we are building your amazing site: at the beginning of the project, when we deliver your homepage for review, the final site review, and when we arrange to go live!

What if I've never designed a site for shopify before?

We recommend requesting to set up a call with Katie to go over what functionality in the site you're looking for to make sure that Shopify is the right platform for the site. In addition, we can go over our recommendations for how to design for Shopify based on the development package you choose. We also recommend communicating with us during your web design process to eliminate any hiccups that may pop up during development.

what happens if none of the packages are exactly what i need?

We are happy to custom quote any project for you. These packages are good starting points but we know that all website projects are different. Please contact us with the scope of your project and as much detail as possible and we will put a quote together for you.

Additionally, if a project scope is close to one of the packages but requires deeper customization or additional edits outside of the included scope, additional development hours can be purchased and billed at the standard hourly rate.

What all does 'styling' include for the basic shopify build?

Styling includes adjustments made within the theme’s built-in customization settings and light HTML/CSS edits to visually match the provided mockup. This covers things like colors, typography, spacing, button styles, and basic layout tweaks that stay within the theme’s existing structure.

Styling does not include new Liquid sections, re-coded layouts, or advanced functionality beyond what the theme supports.

If a project requires deeper customization or additional edits outside of the included styling scope, additional development hours can be purchased and billed at the standard hourly rate.

Important for Designers:
When designing mockups for a theme customization, make sure your layout and functionality align with the existing theme structure. Avoid creating new layouts, sections, or interactions that don’t already exist within the theme. If your design includes custom features or layouts that require new Liquid code, that would move the project into a custom development scope instead of standard styling.

what specifically is included in the seo setup?

In the Standard Shopify Build, the SEO setup and launch checklist takes things a step further than the basic package. The basic setup covers meta titles, descriptions, and image alt text, while the Standard build makes sure everything’s truly ready for launch. That means double-checking URL structure, adding redirects if needed, connecting Google Analytics and Search Console, reviewing key pages and collections for SEO best practices, and running a final pre-launch check to make sure the site’s optimized and ready to go live.

Advanced SEO setup goes a bit deeper than the standard version. It focuses more on the technical side, like setting up schema, fine-tuning URL structure, adding redirects for larger product catalogs, and checking that everything is indexed and linked correctly. It also includes things like sitemap setup, performance tweaks that affect search ranking, and a full pre-launch review to catch anything that could slow the site down or hurt visibility once it’s live.


what is not included in the shopify development packages?

  • Copywriting (copy should be approved and in mockups)
  • Photography/product images (approved mockups should include final photos)
  • Domain purchase (client should purchase)
  • Monthly Shopify subscription fees
  • App subscription fees (varies by app)
