Process
How the work moves from audit to launch and iteration.
We review the current store, commercial goals, pain points, tech stack, and priorities before shaping the roadmap.
The UX, content structure, development, and testing move together so the storefront stays coherent as decisions get made.
After go-live, we stay close to the store through QA, support, optimisation, and whatever the next trading priority requires.
