Have you heard? After 12 years, Shopify will be r Have you heard? After 12 years, Shopify will be raising the price on their merchant plans. Shopify has changed & improved so much over the years (hellllo Shopify 2.0!!) so I guess this is expected, but still, no fun to have your biz platform raise their rates, so I empathize if you feel frustrated by this! Swipe through for all the details, and how to save 25%! What do you think about the new pricing?
Happy New Year! It’s ok if you haven’t set an Happy New Year! It’s ok if you haven’t set any 2023 resolutions yet, astrologically it’s not a great time for that anyways with Mercury and Mars in retrograde. I’m using these next few weeks to review and reflect on 2022. I’m going to be pondering and journaling responses to the prompts I share in this post and then looking for patterns and themes. It’s really important to look back before moving forward. Even though our society tells us to go,go,go full speed ahead. Once I can distill my reflections down into one sentence to sum up the year, I’ll start setting my 2023 business goals, using my 2022 reflections as my guide. Do you practice reflection? How does it help you? I’d love to hear the questions you use for reflection or if you tried some of mine. 🤍 Cheers to a joyful and prosperous 2023 for all of us!!
Lots and lots of gratitude to the incredible, pass Lots and lots of gratitude to the incredible, passionate & endlessly creative business owners who I had the pleasure of working with this year. Whether we built a new website for your business, collaborated behind the scenes to improve your existing business practices, or we worked together to craft the perfect brand identity, I loved it all and it was truly my pleasure to play a small part in your success! Also, a warm hug of thanks to my fellow web designers who brought me on to their own projects for white label Shopify development - thank you for trusting me with a piece of your own projects! Wishing everyone a very happy holiday and a peace and joy filled new year! 🤍
Bring an retail entrepreneur is not for the faint Bring an retail entrepreneur is not for the faint of heart, especially this time of year 🤍. Emotions are running high - this time between tgiving and Xmas is often crucial to ending the year with a profit and it’s much anticipated all year long with lots of hopeful expectations. Whether you are invigorated by the frenetic pace of another busy holiday season, or ready to ship that last order and head into a well deserved hibernation, I’m here to say that this is all normal! Wishing my e-commerce & retail entrepreneurs many, many “Cha-Ching!’s” smooth shipping, and lots of delighted customers as you get those final orders out the door this weekend. You got this 🤍
Introducing Cirque Candles! This warm and bright Introducing Cirque Candles! This warm and bright candle brand focuses on all natural ingredients and making sure their candle scents will fill up your room while helping you Find Your Calm. This power packed site was created via my Lightning Launch Shopify offering, which is an intensive service that has you ready to launch in 3 steps and 2 weeks. It’s ideal for new brands, businesses looking to expand into their own website from Etsy or other platforms, or businesses needing a quick turnaround. I’ll be sharing more about my new Lightning Launch service in the new year, but if you like what you see here and want to know more, send me a message and let’s talk!

It’s a gloomy and dark December day here in Mass It’s a gloomy and dark December day here in Massachusetts! I’ll be honest that I don’t do well during these dark, cold months when the sun sets at 4:30 and my fingers and toes are always freezing. Although it’s dark and dreary, this project I’m working on is warm, sunny, and cozy. Rich purples, oranges and reds are perfectly balanced between playful and elegant. I can’t wait to share the finished Shopify site for Cirque Candles 😍. In the meantime, I’ll be making the best of the 197 days left until summer returns 😜. Do you like the winter months? Have any good tips for keeping warm? I’m all ears🤍. Brand Design: @lunatemplates
