What we do

Your seamless Shopify migration

Making the move to a new ecommerce platform can be daunting as it requires a lot of work, planning and research. We’ll guide your brand every step of the way; designing your Shopify store, migrating your data and products, and optimising your new site for maximum success. Here’s how we’ll do it.

01. PLAN

Before website migration begins, our team of strategists, UX experts, designers and developers will run an audit of your site to identify what needs to be transferred. This is when we figure out which data must go with you to your new home on Shopify, how we can optimise your theme for go-live, and which third-party apps will drive the growth of your ecommerce business.

02. IMPLEMENT

It’s time to migrate to Shopify. Our migration experts will bring your enhanced site to life, ensuring your refreshed design, payment processing, and any new functionality are running smoothly. Meanwhile, our back-end developers take care of warehouse and point of sale integrations, so sales keep going (and rising) during the migration process.

03. OPTIMISE

Get your new Shopify store noticed. Our SEO team makes sure you retain your existing online presence, while identifying opportunities to elevate your visibility. Creatives level up your copy and content for a market-leading user experience, while our CRM experts transfer your email data, and customise your transactional flows.
