You've built a store people trust in person. An online channel should extend that, not water it down into a clunky template with half your inventory missing. We build ecommerce for brick-and-mortar retailers nationwide, including the first online store for Balliets, a luxury retailer that sold exclusively in person for 90 years.
A weekend on a website builder gets you a store that technically exists and sells nothing. A real online channel has four parts, and we handle all of them as one project:
Checkout, payments, taxes, shipping rules, and the connection to how your floor already operates.
Products structured with variants and collections, tagged so customers can find them, and synced so you never sell what you don't have.
Online, the photo is the merchandise. Products have to look as good on a phone as they do on your shelves.
Picking, packing, shipping, and local pickup designed around your staff and your hours, so the store is a channel, not a burden.
See the whole picture in our guide to taking your retail store online.
Balliets is an Oklahoma City institution, a luxury fashion retailer that built its reputation over 90 years of in-person service without ever selling a product online. The bar for its first online store was simple and brutal: meet the standard customers walk in expecting.
We built it on Shopify: an inventory of designer apparel and accessories structured into collections and variants that make sense to shop, product imports run so the catalog went live clean, and workflows designed so the team that runs the floor can run the store online too. It's live at balliets.com, and the full build is in our Balliets case study.
Shopify is hosted and secure, its POS ties your floor and website into one inventory, and its retail ecosystem is the deepest there is. More on our Shopify development practice.
Focused builds start at $5,000; most full retail stores with meaningful catalogs run $10,000 and up, with Shopify's own plans adding roughly $39/month plus payment processing. Once the store is live, our digital advertising work brings shoppers to it, including in restricted categories like hemp and CBD.
Most retail builds launch in 4-8 weeks. Product data is the biggest variable: if your inventory is already in a POS or spreadsheet, we move fast, and if it needs structuring, that time is in the quote.
Only for the products you sell online, and not all of them on day one. Many retailers launch with their best-selling categories shot well, then expand the catalog.
Your existing team can run it. That's a design requirement. We build workflows around how your store already operates, hand off with a full walkthrough, and stay available for 90 days after launch.
Not if it's built right. Shopify keeps one inventory across your floor and your website, so a sale in either place updates both.
