WHO THIS SERVICE IS FOR:

→ You have an existing design to work from, but need people who know the platform at an expert level to do it on an ASAP timeline

→ Your app integrations are minimal, or fairly simple and straightforward

→ You are ok with doing some aspects of your website yourself to become autonomous in your day-to-day with some general guidance

→ Your brand is doing less than $30k/mo online so you can't invest 5-figures into a long project right now

→ You are in a pivoting season right now and need some foundations to start as your systems will likely evolve within the next year

FAQs

WHAT DO I NEED TO PROVIDE?

For web design: To start the web designs, we’ll need high-resolution professional brand or product photography selected to begin. We can, if you choose, provide copywriting services for all of our website clients. Here's some truth for you: professional brand and product photography is an absolute game-changer for your brand and website.

It's not just a trend, it's become the industry standard. Your audience can instantly sense when you've skimped on your visuals, so if you're ready to take your brand to the next level, investing in top-notch photography is a no-brainer. Ask us how we can help you with your brand photography in preparation for your website.

CAN'T WE USE A TEMPLATE TO SAVE ON COSTS?

Shopify templates also come in varying degrees of flexibility, speed, well-engineered sections, and documentation for upkeep.

I only use templates I would recommend, trust and have used in the past. If you wanted to just use a template you still won’t be much closer to that design, aesthetic and usable quality you’re after.

All templates need some level of customization to achieve what you want without extra apps slowing you down. Semi-custom helps bridge the gap between faster and cheaper but still on-brand and beautiful, where with custom we are achieving speed, functionality, and bleeding-edge performance goals that templates tend to box us out of.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FULLY CUSTOM DESIGN AND THE ACCELERATOR?

Our Spruce Up Shopify websites do not allow for fully custom functionality - like a "whatever you want" - we mostly have to work with what comes in the box, with a few exceptions. During the theme selection process, we will walk you through the capabilities and limitations of each Shopify theme. Additional features and functionality can always be requested but will require a re-scope of the project and its pricing.

DAY-TO-DAY

Project communication will be completed via ClickUp to provide regular updates on the progress of the project. Outside of the meetings in-scope (i.e. discovery call, design review), an ad-hoc touch base to reconnect with our team will be determined upon request.

For these intensive projects, we need a 1 to 2-business day feedback and approval. If that won't work for you we may suggest a different package.

Formal written sign-off of the final designs will be required prior to proceeding with the development stage. Delays or withholding of approval will result in delays in your project and we may need to rebook to our next available slot (4-6+ weeks delay).

FEEDBACK

We need 2-business day turnaround on feedback and requirement asks from us, via email, our project management system or our instant message system.

Pre-Work

We have a few intake forms for each of our services that we will need filled out prior to service.You will also need to provide us with product knowledge, brand assets, photography and more so we can action your creative.

A full list of your materials we need will be outlined in your project Scope of Work after signing.

WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING BREAKS AFTER LAUNCH?

Anything we build for you has a 15 to 30-day post launch guarantee on, if it breaks we will fix it! However, there are 2 caveats. Shopify being a SaaS provider is constantly iterating and improving their software for merchants on an ongoing basis. Any updates to the Shopify template language, API and more are not covered if changes were not documented or released at kickoff. Third party app integrations can’t be guaranteed as we have no control over their code base. Understand that Shopify does software version changes over time, so changes to the software requirements is not covered.

HOW DO REVISIONS WORK? DO I HAVE INPUT ON THE DESIGN?

We work in strict revision cycles which you will see as we move through your project in our per-delivery presentation of how many rounds of revisions are left in the process plus a very guided and direct way to understand the goals of feedback in each phase. We use the one concept method approach which rarely has significant revisions based on our in-depth strategy and alignment before design. We believe your design is tailored to your goals, and we design for the “wow” factor. Our one-concept method funnels us into the strongest design based on our developed style, your needs, and a professionally informed opinion.
