Everything a Shopify store needs, from one person.
Shopify is a good platform for a lot of stores. The work is the same as any store: products people can find, a checkout that converts, and numbers you can trust.
New Shopify stores
Store setup from an empty account: theme, product catalog, collections, shipping, tax, payments, policies and the pages that build trust. Launched with your domain, analytics and Search Console connected.
Theme customization
Changes the theme editor will not make: custom sections, product page layouts, filters, size guides and brand details, written in Liquid so they survive theme updates.
Apps and integrations
Fewer apps, chosen for a reason. Reviews, subscriptions, wholesale, bookings, inventory and accounting connected so orders do not get typed twice.
Fixes and speed
Checkout problems, broken apps, slow pages, missing tracking and products that will not show. Found, fixed and explained in plain English.
Moving to Shopify
Products, customers, orders and every old address carried over from Wix, Squarespace, WooCommerce or an old platform, with redirects so rankings are not lost.
Moving off Shopify
When monthly fees and app costs outgrow the store, I move it to WooCommerce you own outright, product by product, address by address.
Same craft, different platform.
Most stores I build and run today are on WooCommerce. Catalogs, checkout, shipping rules, tax, product photography, payment setup, migrations and search work the same way on Shopify. The platform changes the tools, not the job.
I will tell you plainly which one fits your store, even when the answer means less work for me. If Shopify is the right call, I build it on Shopify. My honest WooCommerce vs Shopify comparison lays out where each one wins.

The work behind the store.
Real stores, live today. They run on WooCommerce, and the same product, checkout and shipping work goes into a Shopify build.
Four steps to an open store.
A 20-minute call
What you sell, how you ship, what you have now and what is not working. You leave with a straight answer on Shopify or WooCommerce.
A written scope
A flat quote with every page, app and integration listed, plus the monthly Shopify and app costs you will pay so nothing surprises you.
Build on a preview
You watch the store come together on a private preview with your real products, and test checkout before anyone else sees it.
Launch and after
Domain, redirects, tracking and payments switched on together. Then a walkthrough, and the same person on the phone when you need a change.
Before you hire a Shopify developer.
Have you built Shopify stores before?
My store work so far has been on WooCommerce, including a 1,374-product rebuild and a 160-year-old Louisville retailer. Shopify uses the same store skills with different tools, and I take Shopify projects now. You will see exactly what I am building on a preview before it launches.
Should my store be on Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify suits stores that want hosting, security and checkout handled for a monthly fee. WooCommerce suits stores that want to own everything and avoid per-sale and app fees. Tell me what you sell and I will recommend one, with the costs of each.
Can you fix my existing Shopify store?
Yes. Theme problems, app conflicts, slow pages, broken tracking and checkout issues. I start by finding the cause and tell you what it takes before any billed work.
Do you only work with Louisville businesses?
Most clients are in Louisville, Southern Indiana and across Kentucky, but a store sells everywhere and so does the support.
Tell me about your store.
What you sell, what platform you are on now and what is not working. You hear back from the person who will build it.
