SHOPIFY DEVELOPMENT
Level Up
Take your e-commerce store to the next level with a full platform migration to Shopify, delivered by an experienced consultant with sales strategy and the bigger picture in mind.
Moving your e-commerce store to a new platform is a significant decision. It's not just about the technical migration – it's about ensuring your new store is strategically positioned for growth while maintaining (or improving) your search rankings, customer experience, and sales momentum.
The Level Up package is designed for brands ready to migrate to Shopify from another platform.
Perhaps you've outgrown Squarespace, WooCommerce, or another platform. Maybe you're frustrated with limitations, slow loading times, or clunky integrations. Or you simply want the robust functionality and scalability that Shopify offers.
Whatever your reason for moving, the Level Up package ensures your migration is smooth, strategic, and sets you up for sustainable growth.
What makes this migration different?
I'm not just a Shopify developer – I'm an e-commerce consultant with two decades of experience in retail trading and strategy. This means your migration isn't just a technical exercise. I'll look at your entire business model, identify opportunities for improvement, and build a store that's optimised for conversions from day one.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Pre-migration Strategy Session
Before we touch any code, we'll discuss your business goals, what's working in your current store, and what needs to change. This strategic foundation ensures we're building the right store for where your business is going, not just replicating what you have.
Comprehensive Data Migration
I'll migrate all your critical data including products, collections, customer information, order history, and content pages. Everything that matters comes across to your new Shopify store, properly structured and optimised.
Improved Site Structure
Migration is the perfect opportunity to reorganise your site for better navigation and customer experience. I'll work with you to create a logical structure that makes it easy for customers to find what they're looking for.
Enhanced Product Presentation
Your products will be set up with Shopify's powerful variant system, improved imagery options, and better organisation. If you're selling complex products with multiple options, I'll configure this properly so it's easy for both you and your customers.
SEO Preservation and Improvement
Maintaining your search rankings during a migration is crucial. I'll implement proper redirects, optimise your new site structure for SEO, and ensure you don't lose the organic traffic you've worked hard to build.
Integration Setup
Your new Shopify store will be connected to all the tools you need – email marketing, accounting software, inventory management, analytics, and more. Everything will work together seamlessly from day one.
Custom Functionality
If your business needs specific features that aren't standard in Shopify, I'll implement these using apps or custom development. This might include advanced product customisation, wholesale functionality, or specialised shipping calculations.
Thorough Testing
Before we go live, I'll test every aspect of your new store – from the checkout process to email notifications to mobile responsiveness. We'll catch and fix any issues before your customers see them.
Strategic Launch Plan
Going live with a new platform requires careful coordination. I'll create a detailed launch plan that minimises downtime and ensures a smooth transition for your customers.
Post-Launch Support
The first few weeks on a new platform can feel uncertain. I'll provide support as you settle into Shopify, helping you navigate any issues and make the most of your new store's capabilities.
Comprehensive Training
You and your team will receive thorough training on managing your new Shopify store, including product management, order processing, and using the various features we've implemented.
Who is this for?
The Level Up package is ideal for established e-commerce brands currently on platforms like Squarespace, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Magento who are ready to move to Shopify. You're typically doing 6-figures or more in annual revenue and need a more robust, scalable platform.
You understand that migration is an investment in your business's future, and you want it done properly by someone who understands both the technical requirements and the strategic implications.
You're a purpose-driven fashion, homeware, lifestyle or beauty brand who values working with a consultant who shares your commitment to building a sustainable, impactful business.
INVESTMENT
Platform migrations are complex projects with many variables. The investment depends on factors like the size of your product catalogue, the complexity of your current setup, custom functionality requirements, and your specific business needs.
Get in touch for a detailed consultation where we'll discuss your current platform, your goals for the migration, and create a tailored proposal that outlines the scope, timeline, and investment required.
