Online store creation for independent retailers

We build your Shopify store, ready to sell: payments, GST/QST/HST, shipping, and compliance with Quebec's Bill 96 and Law 25. Your store is live in 10 to 15 business days, and we keep an eye on it after launch.

Online store creation FAQ

How long does it take to launch an online store?

Usually 10 to 15 business days after we receive your material: account access, logo, product information and photos. Approval times at Google, Meta and TikTok sometimes add to that and are outside our control.

How much does a Shopify store cost?

With Impact Online, the smallest launch costs $1,650, and a store that's ready to sell with 25 product listings costs $2,775. A full launch costs $5,005. The Shopify subscription is paid directly to Shopify. Prices in Canadian dollars, taxes extra.

What happens to my current inventory? Do I have to re-enter everything?

No. You can import your products yourself, or hand your product listings to our team, from $1,125 for 25 listings. They're delivered as drafts in your store, ready to publish.

Can I sell in my shop and online at the same time?

Yes. With Shopify POS (point of sale), your shop and your online store share the same inventory, products and customers. An in-store sale updates your online stock automatically, and vice versa. The POS subscription and hardware (terminal, card reader) are paid directly to Shopify.

Why Shopify rather than WooCommerce or Wix?

Shopify is hosted, secured and updated for you: no plugins to maintain and no server to manage, unlike WooCommerce. It's more complete than Wix for selling: payments, Canadian taxes, shipping, inventory and in-store point of sale are built in. Your store can grow without switching platforms.

How are GST, QST or HST handled?

They're configured as part of Store setup, based on your location. Shopify automatically calculates GST, QST or HST on every order.

Will my store show up on Google?

Yes, with a little help. The Google ecosystem block connects your store to Google Merchant Center, Google Analytics and your Google Business Profile. Product listings with SEO titles and descriptions also help your ranking.

Do I need technical skills to run my Shopify store?

No. We set everything up for you. The Training block gives you videos on day-to-day management, a 60-minute live Q&A session and 14 days of email support.
