An online shop built for growth
A fictional planning scenario to explain the scope and decisions involved. This is not a completed client project or a promise of results.
A retailer wants customers to find products easily, use the store on mobile and complete checkout with less friction.

Scope confirmed after discovery
This example shows how we would plan a storefront rebuild. It is a fictional scenario intended to help you understand the work involved.
Start with the buying journey
Review how shoppers move from a search result to a product, a basket and a completed order. Check mobile navigation, product information, shipping clarity and payment options. Establish a baseline from the store's own analytics before choosing priorities.
A possible scope
- Product discovery: clearer categories, filters and search suited to the size of the catalogue.
- Product pages: useful images, availability, delivery information and accessible controls.
- Checkout: review guest checkout, required fields, payment options and error messages.
- Search foundations: preserve useful URLs, map redirects and check metadata and product markup.
- Handover: document how the team updates products, content and orders.
What to check before launch
Test real purchase paths on a staging store, including discounts, shipping, tax configuration and unsuccessful payments. Check keyboard use, mobile layouts and redirects, then confirm backups and a rollback plan. Product photography, copywriting, payment fees and platform subscriptions should be explicit in the quote.
How success would be measured
Compare checkout completion, qualified organic visits, revenue per visitor and customer support issues against the starting baseline. Separate seasonal changes and campaign traffic from site changes. Set targets after reviewing the actual data; this example makes no forecast of traffic or revenue.
Bring to the first conversation
Your current website, approximate product count, selling regions, payment and fulfilment tools, and the main difficulty your customers report. These details make the proposed scope and price more useful.
