The daily friction we hear about.

01

Your online shop looks outdated and customers leave

First impressions matter. If your site looks like it was built ten years ago, shoppers won't trust it with their card details, they'll head straight to a competitor.

02

You're losing sales to Amazon and bigger competitors

You can't beat Amazon on everything, but you can beat them on service, expertise, and niche products. A well-built website helps you play to your strengths.

03

Mobile checkout is costing you sales

Over half of online shopping happens on phones. If your checkout is clunky on mobile, customers abandon their basket and buy elsewhere.

04

Managing stock across channels is a headache

Selling in-store, online, and on marketplaces? Without proper integration, you're overselling stock and disappointing customers.

Things people in this sector ask us.

01How much does an e-commerce website cost?

It depends on the size and complexity. A straightforward online shop with up to 100 products typically starts from around three to four thousand pounds. Larger catalogues with custom features cost more. We will give you a clear quote upfront.

02How long does it take to build an online shop?

Most e-commerce websites take 4-6 weeks from kickoff to launch. Larger shops with hundreds of products or complex integrations may take 8-10 weeks.

03Can AI help with inventory forecasting and customer service?

Yes, our AI tools analyse your sales data to predict demand and optimise stock levels, and AI-powered chatbots can handle common customer queries like order status, returns, and product questions instantly.

04How quickly can we see results from AI automation?

Most retailers see measurable improvements within weeks. AI customer service tools work from day one, and inventory forecasting improves continuously as it learns your sales patterns.

05Which e-commerce platform do you recommend?

It depends on your needs. We work with Shopify, WooCommerce, and headless e-commerce solutions. We will recommend the best fit based on your product range, budget, and growth plans.

06Can you help manage stock across online and in-store?

Yes, we can integrate your online shop with EPOS and inventory management systems so stock levels stay accurate across all your sales channels.
