CV19 Special – Quick Start Ecommerce Packages
Many businesses are transforming the way they deliver their products and services since the pandemic has taken hold and lockdown began. We’ve been building ecommerce websites for over ten years and can help your business get online – quickly.
Changing Business
Here are some examples of Nottingham businesses who either moved to ecommerce or increased their ecommerce capacity
- A local cafe had to close, so started doing deliveries of ingredients and prepared meals. They already have the suppliers and delivery platforms in place so switched quickly
- A fruit & veg business started a monthly subscription plan, with fixed price boxes containing various products. This made ordering and fulfilling much more efficient than trying to take orders for individual items.
- A local personal trainer has started selling workout plans and video calls to work out together, instead of meeting people in the gym
Ecommerce Options
To help out in this challenging times, we can offer two ecommerce solutions for your small business to start selling products or services. Both are quick to set up, so if you’ve got all the text, images and a PayPal account we could potentially have you up and running in a few days!
1. Shopify
Shopify is a hosted ecommerce platform with a monthly fee. That mean Shopify host your website for you. A basic shop is quick and cheap to set up, but adding features can often add a lot to the monthly cost. They can take care of payment processing too, if you haven’t got a PayPal account.
Ballpark costs: £500 for setup, adding some products, testing and training, then your monthly fee (around £30) plus any add-ons you need
2. WordPress & WooCommerce
This is our preferred system as you don’t get locked into high monthly fees for what can sometimes be basic functionality. We are also experts at styling WordPress sites so can tailor it to your branding quickly. PayPal and Stripe are supported for free, with other payment systems like Sage and WorldPay available.
Ballpark costs: £600 for install, basic customisation, testing and training, including a year’s green web hosting
