The right conversation

A Trading Business.
A Team To Carry The Work.

For retailers and distributors changing platforms while keeping product records, order handling, search paths and daily work intact.

When this becomes useful

The platform limits catalog or operational requirements.
Maintenance and workarounds are becoming difficult to carry.
You need a clear migration scope and an assessment of the risks.

A Clear Starting Point

Choose The Work.
Understand The Package.

Start with a scope assessment. We confirm whether paid Discovery is needed, then qualify a fixed Standard Migration or agree hourly Custom Migration for more complex work.

When It Helps

01Confirm the records, theme and integrations
02Build and rehearse the agreed move on staging
03Check journeys, redirects and transferred records
04Approve launch and hand over operating notes

These are example stages, not an hours allowance. Paid Discovery may be waived after assessment when existing information is sufficient; your proposal confirms the decision.

Examples illustrate how the package may be used. Work, estimates, priorities and timing are confirmed in your proposal; the example is not a fixed list of promised deliverables.

Full scope, responsibilities & approvals

Our Contribution

Paid Discovery produces a usable plan when needed; the team may waive it after assessing sufficient existing information. Implementation follows an agreed scope and milestones, with changes approved and post-launch care separately defined.

Source and target assessment, data inventory, and migration scope.
Product and record mapping, URL continuity, and integration requirements.
A trial migration, checks that transferred records match, and a client testing plan.
A plan for switching to the new store, restoring the previous version if needed, training and post-launch care.

What We Need From You

Provide export rights, data owners, business rules, vendor contacts, historical requirements, and people who can test and approve the transition.

Outside This Scope

Guaranteed rankings, unrestricted data cleansing, replacement of every business system, and unspecified custom applications are not included. Launch timing is agreed after scope and readiness are assessed.

Checks, Approvals & Timing

Agree how transferred records will be checked, which important URLs and integrations must work, and how checkout, shipping and handover will be approved before launch.

Assess the move early. Choose launch timing from risk, readiness and trading demand, with paid Discovery where needed.

Published package prices and scope form the starting point for your written proposal. We confirm delivery dates, coverage, fees, payment schedule and cancellation arrangements before you commit. Additional work or different terms require your agreement.

Payment: $3,600 after qualification: $1,440 at kickoff, $1,440 at the staging milestone and $720 after acceptance, before launch.
Delivery: One qualified migration against agreed records, theme, integrations and milestones. Data access and client decisions determine the launch schedule.
Acceptance & Changes: Five business days to review each milestone; silence is not acceptance. New requirements need an approved estimate before work starts.

Delivery details & common questions

Capacity & Responsibilities

Define source and target platforms, record types and volumes, storefront templates, integrations, content responsibilities and acceptance scenarios. Existing subscriptions and licenses remain separate costs.

Reviews & Handover

Receive the agreed mapping, test results and checks that transferred records match, operating notes and training. Post-launch care has its own period and scope; ongoing support can follow by agreement.

Is Every Migration $3,600?

Our delivery team confirms eligibility in writing after reviewing the source and destination platforms, data quality, product variants, theme and integrations. The starting scope is one migration with up to 500 parent products (variants assessed separately), an agreed existing theme and named standard integrations. Customer and order history are included only when named. Complex data, bespoke themes, custom integrations or multiple stores may need a separate scope or Custom Migration at an agreed hourly rate.

Is Discovery Required, And Is It Included In The Build Fee?

The team may waive paid Discovery after assessing your existing information, when it is sufficient to qualify and plan the migration. Your proposal confirms that decision before you commit. When required, Migration Discovery is $720 separately from the $3,600 Standard Migration and is not automatically credited. If both packages are agreed, their combined fee is $4,320, before separately agreed third-party or additional work costs. Any alternative fee arrangement must be explicit in your proposal.

How Is Custom Migration Billed?

We agree an hourly rate, estimate and spending cap, then invoice approved logged hours monthly or every two weeks. Each invoice includes a time report. The total varies with the approved work; there is no fixed package price.

Is Client Workspace Access Included?

Access is included while your package is active, for the work agreed with you. The workspace helps keep requests, files, progress updates and review decisions together. Permissions and available features are confirmed at onboarding. It is not a separately delivered CRM or ERP product; custom integrations and extra capabilities need their own scope. Handover and any continued access after the engagement are agreed in your proposal.
