Own the storefront. Stop renting the shelf.
I build websites for card shops and independent retailers ready to get off Etsy and eBay. Catalog moved, checkout live, and the keys handed to you: your domain, your code, your customer list.
The marketplace owns the customer. That is the whole problem.
A listing is a shelf you rent. The platform sets the fees, changes the rules, and keeps the buyer data. You do the work; it keeps the relationship.
- Fees on every order, whether it profits or not
- Fee and policy changes announced, not negotiated
- A customer list you cannot see, let alone contact
- Your brand living under someone else's logo
A store you own, built to sell.
Storefront design and build
Product pages, collections, cart, and checkout on a stack your team can run without a developer. Built to load fast on the phones your customers actually use.
Catalog migration
Listings exported from Etsy and eBay, cleaned and re-structured: titles, pricing, variants, and photos brought into one catalog with a single source of truth.
Payments and operations
Checkout, tax, and shipping rules configured, order notifications wired to wherever you already work. The store runs; you watch it.
The selling report
The store comes with a plain one-page report: which products move and which listings stall, checked once a week.
Handover
Domain, code, and customer data in your name, with a runbook short enough to actually read.
At handoff, you own all of it.
No seat licenses. No monthly fee to me. No platform standing between you and your customers.
- Your domain
- Your storefront and its code
- Your product data
- Your customer list
Fixed scope. Priced in writing. Built in weeks.
A storefront is a project, not a subscription. Scope is defined before work starts: catalog, features, design, one written price. The build is sequenced so the shop keeps selling on the marketplace until the new store is ready to take over.

A 20-minute call is enough to sketch the migration and put a scope in writing.
