What we build

Six kinds of Shopify project we build in Austin.

Most Austin brands come to us for one of these. If your situation is a mix, we scope it as one project rather than splitting it into retainers.

New build

Store from scratch

A brand new Shopify store for a launching Austin D2C brand. Structure, design, build, apps and a launch checklist.

Redesign

Existing store rebuild

Keep the catalogue and history, replace the theme and page structure with a Shopify store built to convert.

Migration

Move to Shopify

Shopify migration from WooCommerce, Wix, GoDaddy, Magento or BigCommerce. Products, customers, orders and redirects.

B2B

Wholesale & B2B

Company accounts, price lists, quantity rules and gated catalogues on Shopify B2B or Shopify Plus.

Custom

Sections & features

Custom Shopify theme sections, metaobject-driven content, bundles, configurators and swatch systems.

Speed

Performance work

App cleanup, image and script work, and theme surgery to pull Core Web Vitals back into green.

Why Austin brands work with us

Built for the way Austin brands actually sell.

Austin runs on food and drink, outdoor, apparel and wellness brands, many of them still early. Here is what that means for how we build.

We work your morning

Reviews, approvals and launch-day fixes land inside Central hours rather than turning up the next day. You are not waiting overnight for an answer on a decision you raised at 10am.

We have already built in Texas

We built and launched the Shopify store for the Duke & Oliver Foundation in Dallas, on a fixed nonprofit budget. Ask and we will put you in touch with them directly.

Set up for a first launch

A lot of Austin brands come to us before the first order, not after the thousandth. We build the structure, the apps and the tracking so the store is ready to be advertised on day one.

Speed for paid-heavy stores

Austin brands spend hard on Meta and Google. We ship green Core Web Vitals so you are not losing the conversion rate you are already paying for.

Process

Six stages from kickoff to launch.

Client reviews

What clients say after launch.

The first one is a Texas client. Ask and we will connect you with any of them directly.

★★★★★

As a nonprofit our budget was fixed and we said so. They scoped to it instead of quoting up, and the donation flow works on a phone, which was the whole point.

We came from GoDaddy with a messy catalog and were dreading the move. Everything came across, the redirects held, and we did not lose a single wholesale account in the switch.

B2B on Shopify is not simple and most agencies we spoke to did not really understand price lists or company accounts. This team did, and they said upfront what they would not attempt.

The redesign and the brand identity came out of the same team, so nothing felt bolted on. Ads started a month later and we were already set up to measure them properly.

Klaviyo flows we had ignored for a year got rebuilt in a fortnight. Repeat orders are now a line on the report we actually look at.

I was learning ecommerce from a course and had no idea what to ask for. They walked me through each decision rather than just building what I said, which saved me from a few bad calls.

Questions

Shopify development in Austin, answered.

Do you work with Shopify brands based in Austin?

Yes. We work with D2C brands across Austin and Central Texas, and remotely across the US. Our nearest Texas build is the Duke & Oliver Foundation in Dallas. Our offices are in Los Angeles and New Delhi rather than Austin, so there is no walk-in address here, but we hold Central hours for calls, reviews and launch days.

How long does a Shopify build take?

Two to three weeks for most stores, from kickoff to launch. Large catalogues, B2B setups and multi-market stores take longer, and we say so in the scope before you sign.

How much does a Shopify build cost?

Every quote is flat and fixed to the scope, so there is no hourly billing to watch. Share your store or brief and we send one number with the scope attached before anything starts.

Can you migrate my store to Shopify?

Yes. We handle Shopify migrations from WooCommerce, Wix, GoDaddy, Magento and BigCommerce, including products, customers, order history and a full 301 redirect map so your Austin search rankings hold through the move.

Do you work with Shopify Plus?

Yes, including B2B on Plus, Markets for multi-currency selling and Shopify Flow for automation. Those projects are quoted per scope rather than from a starting price.

Do I own the theme afterwards?

Yes. The theme, the code and the store are yours. We hand over full admin access and a walkthrough so your team can edit sections without coming back to us.

Which Austin areas do you serve?

Downtown Austin, South Congress, East Austin, Zilker, The Domain, Round Rock, Cedar Park and Westlake, plus Georgetown, San Marcos and remote clients across Texas and the rest of the US.
