ShaneWebGuy provides remote Shopify development for new and existing online stores. Start with the store URL or new-store brief, the product catalog, the theme you use or are considering, and the changes you want customers or staff to be able to make.

For a new Shopify store, outline the products, variants, collections, navigation and content that need to be prepared. Identify the intended selling markets and the payment, shipping and tax requirements that need review before agreeing the build scope.

For an existing store, describe the current theme, installed apps and the specific problems you want to address. A design refresh, catalog reorganization, migration and integration project involve different work, so distinguish the requested changes from features that must remain.

Theme work should be scoped around the page templates, content sections and shopping tasks the store needs. Review the available theme features before deciding which changes require customization, and identify how staff will maintain the content after handoff.

List the apps and external systems involved in orders, inventory, customer records, email and reporting. Clarify which system owns each type of data and what should happen when an order or customer record changes. App subscriptions and third-party services should be considered when reviewing the project requirements.

Product information affects both the storefront and day-to-day administration. Share the approximate catalog size, product options, collection structure and any data that needs to be imported or retained. Include existing URLs and content that matter to a redesign or migration.

Payment and shipping integrations need review in the context of the store, provider and intended markets. Agree which configurations and shopping flows will be checked, which accounts or approvals the store owner supplies, and what remains outside the project before release.
