Shopify feedback
Discussion
I'm in the throws of setting up a new business which will be retail of a product (won't say what as its not really relevant) I was just considering options when I thought of Shopify. Well I actually made an order from Huel and noticed they use shopify for their checkout. If its good enough for them etc....
The last ecom website I did was 10 years ago so I'm totally out of the loop!
Do I need a designer to set up a shopify store front? (I'm a total technical luddite)
It's not a product that needs to do anything special on SEO or anything like that its very niche and we have the marketing strategy already sorted.

Huel use shopify for their whole site. Shopify payments is actually stripe.
Shopify are a good option, and no you don’t need a designer - the whole point of shopify is ease so they have loads of templates.
You could also consider squarespace as a shopify alternative.
Also depending on what you are selling consider eBay and amazon. Most likely the best option is both your own site plus stores on eBay and amazon.

No, Shopify is designed to be no-code so it's accessible to non-technical people.
Where will your customers be located? How will their orders be fulfilled? What payments options do you wish to offer? What CRM/ERP do/will you use? Have you already got a website you wish to add a shop to, or do you need website hosting too?
I proposed that a customer use Shopify recently as it met all their requirements. Instead they went in another direction and used Wix e-commerce, realised that it didn't do what they needed (multi currency checkout) and are now using Shopify.
