Ecommerce customer experience agency

We design the whole customer journey for Shopify and Shopify Plus brands: what customers need before they buy, the store that answers it, and the service that looks after them afterwards.

Customer experience

Start with what customers tell you, then fix every step from first visit to repeat order.

Most improvements come from answering the questions customers have before they buy, and making service easy after they do. That means research, a store designed around what it finds, and support tools that resolve problems quickly.

We are a Gorgias partner, and most of our projects start with a customer experience strategy workshop.

The customer journey we design

01 Understand

A customer experience strategy: workshop, research, personas, an experience map and a ranked roadmap. See the customer experience strategy page for how it works.

02 Design and build

A store that answers buyers’ questions before they ask: product pages, navigation, sizing and fit, samples and comparisons.

03 After the order

Self-service order tracking, returns and exchanges, and subscription management, so customers do not need to contact you.

04 Service

Gorgias set up with Shopify, so agents see orders, refunds and subscriptions next to each ticket, with automation for everyday questions.

05 Retain and improve

Email, loyalty and conversion testing on a growth retainer, measured against the roadmap.
