"Avex understood what we were trying to achieve and worked tirelessly to help us in our (incredibly rapid!) transition. It was clear that the company's expertise and connection with Shopify was remarkably strong, and we appreciated the leadership in guiding the process while also being flexible to suit our unique business needs."
“When we decided to become a real business, we came back to Shopify. The reason that we exist as a business is so that we can execute the mission and have the tech get out of the way. We need it to be easy—I didn’t get into this business because I’ve got a high tech background, I got into it because I come from a sales background and I have a heart. I need to be able to look at conversion rates and reports easily so I can figure out what to do next, and I can do that with Shopify Plus.”
"We needed a platform that wouldn't just support our ambitions—but drive them forward."
"Our move to Shopify Plus opened up more channels and enabled us to shift to a multi-store model to serve different markets. We opened the US store in 2020 to build the brand there. And this has been further entrenched by the opening of the San Diego retail outlet, which runs off the US expansion store."
"The constant feedback from our customers is that they love the simplicity of the Mr Roses website. Shopify Plus is all about quality and being streamlined, and that complements the simplicity and the quality of what we deliver at Mr Roses. Shopify Plus is a trusted and respected platform that delivers on its promises."
"Our website was stopping our growth. We realized we needed to stop, rewind, and get the right infrastructure in place to stabilize us. Then we could focus on growing again."
"The decision to go to Shopify Plus was pretty simple because one of the things we wanted to do was to get to market quickly. The opportunities to customize were endless with Shopify Plus, and we could bring that vision we wanted to all our customers."
"We landed on Shopify Plus as it is a mature platform, simple to use, and there are lots of native integrations already built out. It was quite easy for us to get speed to market and connect all the different pieces we have. Knowing we have big aspirations for the future, we needed a stable and mature platform that can scale with the business."
It took 24 hours to update anything, so you couldn't change anything immediately. And if something went wrong, it took you 24 hours to realize it had gone wrong. So we were just really looking for a much leaner, more agile solution.
"At the time, there was complacency around the business and our technology. At that point, we had to stop and reboot, because we quickly realized what worked for us in those initial phases wouldn’t carry us forward in the exciting direction we had planned."
"Shopify Plus is a specialist and best-of-breed in the ecommerce and retail omnichannel industry. As a direct-to-consumer brand, Shopify Plus empowers us to achieve our ambitions and our vision, as well."
"Shopify made it really easy for us to start with just a single product, £500 and still build a very professional site. Shopify Plus’s integration into third-party apps is amazing – we don’t think we’d have had the same opportunity with other platforms."
"We can take a data-driven approach, view market trends and activate external channels, alongside our own ecommerce, thanks to Shopify. It means we’ve been able to quickly expand in the US, Spain and Sweden – it’s so easy to implement."
Speed Engineering’s switch to Shopify Plus has been essential to unlocking their growth. Our approach to migrating their business helped Speed Engineering enhance their customer experience online while simplifying their workflow and protecting their customers. In addition, the simplification has made their site easier to manage, saving the team valuable time.
"Shopify Plus enables us to focus on telling the brand story instead of tedious technology-related stuff like performance during peak traffic. The intuitive dashboard enables us to manage different storefronts and launch new products in different markets which saves us a lot of overhead and training."
