Why We Recommend Shopify
Shopify helps over 1 million businesses around the World make sales online, it’s easy to use all in one platform. Let us show you just some of the features that you’ll grow to love.
We’ve used a few different platforms to built eCommerce sites but now we try and steer any new clients to pick Shopify. So far we’ve not heard a bad word said about it, let us show you a few of the reasons why we recommend Shopify.
Looks Good
Having a site that looks go and runs smoothly is key to getting sales. Shopify has a wide range of options with their templates. You can pick one of their free options, purchase one which is listed in the Shopify Marketplace or hire a designer to make something unique to you. As we work with independent retailers we tend to start with one of the free templates and customise it to suit their brand colours.
Using a free theme allows us to offer a lower set-up price and also get the store up and running quicker.
Affordable
This is so important with our clients, they want a solution that does exactly what it’s meant to and at an affordable price. Yes, you can get cheaper, but with e-commerce, you often get what you paid for. Shopify has a few different price points, allowing you to start lower down and build up sap by step with the packages.
Easy Product Management
Something that is a great time-saver is the easy to use product management system. It’s laid out easily for when you need to edit or list a new product. And one thing that we love is you can tick the boxes and it will also add the product to Facebook, Google, eBay and so on. Saving so much time with not having to list on your different marketplaces.
Built-in Tools
Shopify has a wide range of built-in tools to help make your store successful, from the blogging platform to voucher codes. Everything you’d expect is there and easy to set up. If there is something unique that you are wanting then you can add various apps too. These open up different options like customer parcel tracking. For the most part, you’ll find everything you need already at your fingertips.
Various Payment Methods
To stand the best chance of getting a sale you need to offer the right payment option, not everyone has a PayPal account. Ideally, you’d want two different options, on most of the stores we’ve added PayPal and Shopify Payments. Shopify Payments allows a customer to use a credit/debit card or Apple Pay.
These are some of the basic things we LOVE and why we recommend Shopify. If you’d to chat about Shopify and see if it meets your business requirements please get in touch with us now.
