Shopify

You’re an innovative e-commerce business owner with a vision for your brand, yet you find yourself bogged down by the technical complexities of running an online store.

To stay competitive and meet customer expectations, you’ve had to master every aspect—product curation, web design, marketing, and customer service. Your customers crave a seamless and engaging shopping experience, where their journey from discovery to purchase is smooth and satisfying. But as you juggle multiple roles and platforms, you're left yearning to focus on what you do best—growing and nurturing your business.

Imagine having a website that is more than just a sales platform, but an extension of your brand that drives conversions and fosters loyalty. This is for e-commerce entrepreneurs who dream of creating a dynamic, user-friendly ecosystem that truly reflects their brand’s ethos and keeps their customers coming back. Together, we can transform your online store into a thriving, seamless experience that supports your business goals and delights your customers.

4 Week Shopify Intensive

This is perfect for businesses early in their e-commerce journey who need a solid root system that can support their business as they grow without needing to excavate and start over.

Inspired by the natural world, our approach to web design mirrors nature’s balance and beauty. Just as nature thrives through intentional growth and steady progress, your Shopify site will be crafted with sustainability and ease in mind. My mission is to simplify Shopify, designing and developing websites that foster sustainable growth and natural, intuitive human experiences—both for your customers and for you as a business owner — not just algorithms.

GOSSACK CREATIVE

Kristi Took my vision to create a website experience and ACED it on all levels of execution. My new website has given me a beautiful landing place for all things related to my brand and it has already been wildly valuable. My page visits have already increased 500% percent compared to my last site. So I know people are now more engaged and are informed about what I offer, which makes me so excited. Kristi made all the complicated coding and workarounds for my design possible and easy as ever to replicate, making managing my website so doable and even dare I say FUN??

Kristi is incredibly knowledgable, detailed oriented, and is determined to always find ways to make my design become reality in code no matter how challenging the process was. I really appreciate how Kristi notices and takes care of small things before I even notice them and is always communicating how things work and presenting solutions to move forward with. Kristi is easy, flexible and fun to work with and everything seems possible and light weight when you work with her. So thankful to have Kristi as part of my essential team.

I used to be you—a brand and web designer convinced that success meant being a one-stop creative ecosystem, but by myself without support. Diving headfirst into the backend before the brand felt backwards, yet it was in this reverse journey that i recognized my passion: development.

I also found that small business owners were constantly overwhelmed by updating their websites or the number of brand touchpoints they thought were required to run their business. Their websites weren’t converting or seeing the traffic they desired.

I quickly realized that I could foster the same beauty, flow and function found in nature - but at home - through web design and a real garden!  

Now I’m pulling weeds, planting seeds, and watching them bloom - metaphorically and literally.

Balancing the creative and analytical facets of coding, I found my calling in offering white-label development services. With each line of code, I aim to cultivate websites that not only bloom with beauty but also drive conversions and attract the desired traffic.

Balancing the creative and analytical sides of coding, I've found joy in crafting digital experiences that marry aesthetics with functionality. It's this blend of artistry and precision that fuels my passion for coding and drives me to offer white label development services, helping businesses flourish in the digital landscape.

GET GROWIN’

  • I primarily develop on Shopify and Squarespace, but it ultimately depends on the client, their technical skills, and their business goals. I’ve worked in them all!

    • Squarespace is an affordable and user-friendly website platform that allows you to scale your business without sacrificing aesthetics or the user experience. Squarespace offers business owners a single platform that can manage the website, blogging, analytics, e-commerce, email marketing, scheduling, membership portals, forms, and courses. Squarespace websites are perfect for solopreneurs or small teams that either don’t want to spend the time to learn complicated platforms or don’t have the budget to hire a full web developer to develop their site from scratch.

    • Shopify is a user-friendly and secure e-commerce platform that makes it simple for business owners to manage their inventory, orders, and customers. It integrates with hundreds of third-party apps. I’m currently testing out shopify for service providers as well. Stay tuned!

  • To get started, we will need copy, professional photography, and your brand assets.

  • We start each intensive with the Experience Ecosystem Audit. The first week will be dedicated to mapping out your digital ecosystem to understand how to support the traffic coming to your site.

    There is an option to upgrade your Experience Ecosystem audit to receive a marketing blueprint.

    Weeks 2 and 3 are dedicated to design and development.

    We'll wrap up week 4 connecting your systems.
