What the plans cover and what they do not
The Launch, Growth and Growth + Voice plans are for websites that tell people who you are, what you do and how to reach you. They do not include a shopping cart, payments, shipping or inventory. Those are an extra project, and we say so up front instead of hiding it in the small print.
If you want one, we quote it separately, in writing, before any work starts.
Do you actually need a store?
It is worth asking before you spend. A store is a second business running next to your first one, and it needs steady attention.
- Do you want to ship, or only sell locally?
- How many products do you have, and how often do they change?
- Who will pack and send orders, and how fast?
- How will you handle returns and questions?
- Are you ready for payment fees and taxes to be part of every sale?
What to do instead, to start
Many small shops get more from a simpler setup. A catalog page with photos and prices lets people see what you have and come in. An "ask us" form lets them check that something is in stock. A florist can take a request with the occasion, the date and the delivery address, and confirm by email. A bakery can take orders for parties through a form. None of that needs a shopping cart, and all of it is cheaper to run.
Selling through tools you already use
If you already sell through a marketplace or a payment link, the site can point to it with a clear button. You keep the setup you have, and customers still reach it from your own page. If you take pre-orders, a form can collect them. These are often a good first step before anything bigger.
When a store does make sense
If you already sell by DM or by phone and cannot keep up, a store can take the load off. If you have products that ship well, a steady supply and time to pack, it can bring in customers outside your neighborhood. If people already ask whether they can buy from you online, that is a good sign.
We will tell you plainly whether it looks like a fit, and plainly if it does not.
What a quote for a store involves
We ask what you sell, how many items, how people pay and how they receive their order. Then we write down what the store includes, what it costs to build, what it costs to run, and which fees come from third-party tools. You decide with the whole picture in front of you.
