Online store design and development
Every minute, 6 million people all around the globe shop online. How many of them visit your online store?
In the digital world, every click can represent a service, or a product being sold. And while you personally can't possibly work all the time, an online store does exactly that, it sells 24/7, non-stop.
Therefore, it must be perfectly made... Perfect from any point of view, visual, content, and technical. Are you ready to get your sales up?
ARE YOUR BUYERS IMPULSIVE OR ARE THEY JUST BROWSING?
To make a decision to buy a more expensive product people usually need more time. On the other hand, an impulse purchase can happen in just a few minutes. The appearance of the online store and the customer's journey (sales funnel) must always differ for the lower and higher price-range products.
1. EMOTIONS HANDLE THE WALLET
People don't buy products, they buy a better version of themselves.
At the beginning of our project, we work out who your typical customers are and what they gain from your offer. Then we tackle other "difficult terms", such as: purchase process, store functions, overall image, plugins, integrations, calls to action, interaction with customers, tone of voice…
2. CARE FOR EDITORS
The same way as the human brain, neatly tucked away in a safe place, operates things that happen in milliseconds, a website must be capable of doing that as well.
We setup a backend for your website, an "editor for dummies", that allows you to easily edit products, categories, review orders, manage stock, set discounts, change pictures, publish blog posts…
3. PROGRAMMING
After a client confirms the roadmap for all the shopping processes, functionalities and design, our programmers make a fresh pot of coffee, roll up their sleeves and put their headphones on.
Handling Magento, WooCommerce, Shopify, CRM, accounting and ERP programs, on-site optimization, CMS, integration of payment systems... there is nothing that a strong cup of coffee cannot solve.
4. IF GOOGLE CAN'T FIND YOU, YOU DON'T EXIST
Before your online store is presented to the whole wide world, we polish it even further.
We make sure that the website works lightning fast, and that the customer's shopping journey is perfect. As per agreement, we also edit keywords and texts.
Then we introduce you to Uncle Google and other browsers.
That's it... you're online now! Let the selling begin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Imagine you're organizing a party for an important anniversary. A lot of people will gather there, relatives, friends, colleagues. You can choose an option with simple snacks and a small selection of beverages. It will be kind to your wallet (but not so much to your guests).
On the other hand, you can hire a catering company, a band for live music to dance to, and make sure that guests don't hydrate only with juices but have a wide range of beverages to choose from. It all depends on how you want people to remember your party.
The same goes for an online store. You'll pay less for a basic WooCommerce online store than if you decide you want a custom one, where you can add all the functionality and personalization you choose – it's great for your visitors, but it will increase the cost.
Therefore, just like the final price for a good celebration reflects the number of guests, selected food, and additional activities, so does the price for an online store. It reflects your wishes for the best possible impression on your online visitors. Every project is a story on its' own ... and every online store is a special “celebration”.

The time needed to create an online store, the same as for websites, depends on several factors. These are, for example, the complexity of the design, the integration with other systems (inventory management, accounting programs...) and the speed with which the client delivers the information necessary for smooth production.
For a simple online store that uses standard platform options (for example Shopify or WooCommerce), it can take anywhere from a few weeks to a month to build. This includes choosing a template, adding products, setting up payment and shipping options, and basic search engine optimization (SEO).
With complex online stores with customized design, advanced functionality (stock management, advanced analytics, customized user interfaces, etc.), production can take from several months to half a year.
The entire process of creating an online store also includes time for research, strategy, design, coding, optimization, and testing. It also includes client’s feedback and revisions.

Of course you can! Creating an online store is not a rocket science. You need way less knowledge. But it's still something that requires a good plan and organizational skills.
So, if you are planning to create an online store by yourself, consider the following:
Platform: Choose a proper platform like Shopify or WooCommerce. This step is like choosing the proper location to build your house on.
Design: Let your store be easy on the eye and the user experience at a high level. No one wants to wander through an online store that resembles a maze.
Payment systems: Provide secure and diverse payment methods so you don't lose your customers at their last step of the purchase. Also, don't add hidden costs at the end of the purchase; customers really don’t like that.
Mobile friendly: Today, when everyone has their smart phone handy, it's necessary for your online store to look great on all the devices.
Search engine optimization (SEO): Without good SEO, no one will find you. Your online store will be hidden, just like a treasure on an island without a map to get to it.
Proposition! Sometimes it is better to rent a boat with a crew on it than to sail the boat yourself. You might not be able to row, fix the sails, and scoop water with a bucket and throw it overboard in case of a leak, all by yourself.

What do buyers expect from an online store?
Well, this is a million-dollar question! But in short – buyers demand VIP treatment.
A few more details:
speed (no one likes to wait),
simple navigation (the buyer needs an easy way to find what they are looking for),
security (their personal data must be more securely guarded than the Fort Knox),
quality photos and descriptions (they must get the feeling that they're already holding the product in their hands),
opinions and reviews (why did the picky neighbor Jane chose your store to buy from),
a seamless purchase process (just like the Walmart’s fast check-out),
various payment methods (the more options, the better),
excellent customer support.
