Do you dream of having your own online shop, but find the technology seems like a mystery? Don’t worry! Setting up an online shop can be easier than you think – especially if you have the right partners to work with. 😉 Here’s a quick step-by-step guide to the process of launching a shop and what you should look out for!

 

1. Where to start? Identify your needs!

Before we move on to the technology, let’s focus on what you actually want to achieve. Are you looking to:
  • Sell a few products quickly?
  • Automating orders and stock levels?
  • Or perhaps you have a vision of a state-of-the-art shop that will serve hundreds of thousands of customers?

It’s important that we fully understand your needs right from the start – then we’ll be able to suggest the best solution. And don’t worry if you don’t know exactly what you need yourself. We’ll help you sort it all out.

2. How do you choose the best platform for managing your shop?

The answer to this question is: it depends  🙂 The choice of platform depends on the size of your business, your budget and the features you need. For the vast majority of shops, the simple and intuitive WooCommerce, which runs on WordPress, will work perfectly. Whatever you choose, we’ll help you tailor the solution and teach you how to use it!

3. How will we take care of the technical side of things?

You’re probably thinking: “What about servers, hosting and all that complicated infrastructure?”. Don’t worry, it’s our job to ensure your shop runs quickly, is secure and is always available.

In short: we choose the best hosting (server), secure your shop with an SSL certificate (that’s the green padlock in the browser) and configure everything so it runs flawlessly. You can focus on what matters most – sales!

4. Your shop, your look!

Your shop’s appearance is the first impression you make on your customers. We design everything so that your shop is clear, modern and tailored to your industry. We work with you at every stage to ensure your shop looks exactly as you’ve always imagined.

5. Integrations and automations – all in one place

Payments? Couriers? Analytics? All of this can be integrated to work automatically:

  • Customers will be able to pay in the way that suits them best (e.g. BLIK, PayPal, card).
  • Orders will be automatically sent to the courier.
  • You’ll gain tools to track sales statistics and customer behaviour.

You don’t need to know anything about technology – we’ll configure it all for you.

6. Testing, testing and more testing

Before the shop goes live, we thoroughly check that everything is working as it should: that payments are processed correctly, that orders are sent to your email, and that the website loads instantly. This ensures that the shop’s launch will go smoothly.

7. Implementation and training – we won’t leave you on your own

It is important to us that you feel confident once the shop is up and running. That is why, when everything is ready, we will organise a training session for you, during which we will show you:

  • How to manage orders?
  • How to add new products?
  • How to use marketing tools?

This will ensure your shop is always under control, and you’ll easily manage day-to-day operations.

8. Ongoing support and development

We don’t disappear once your shop is up and running. 🙂 You can always count on our support – from minor tweaks to the implementation of new features. We’ll help you analyse data, optimise technologies and introduce further innovations so your business keeps growing.

With us, your shop will get off the ground stress-free!

You don’t need to be tech-savvy to have a well-functioning online shop. All you need is an idea – we’ll take care of the rest. If you’re ready to get started or have any questions, get in touch with us, and together we’ll create a shop that’s intuitive for your customers!
