Partner with a Shopify and UX design expert to build eCommerce infrastructure that scales

You're investing in infrastructure that scales, not just a website that launches.

The Expert Partnership Package pairs premium Shopify infrastructure with ongoing strategic consulting, so every decision is informed by a decade of eCommerce experience. Built properly from the start, not patched together as you grow.

This isn’t template customisation. You work directly with me across strategy, structure, design, and technical setup — with guidance shaped by nearly a decade of hands-on Shopify experience.

The result is a store that reflects the maturity of your brand and supports where you’re heading next.

She transformed our website!

Meg transformed our website into something seamless, beautiful, and incredibly easy to navigate. I’ve never experienced such a smooth process in my working career.

— Cathy De Dominicis, Eden Perfumes

A Shopify expert

Her knowledge of Shopify’s technicalities and ability to create a visually stunning, functional store exceeded expectations. She’s patient, clear, and highly professional.

— Victoria Bresler, Soul Design

She's calm, quietly confident and wonderfully organised, and just "got" what I was trying to achieve.

Working with Meg has been an absolute pleasure. She's incredibly intuitive and there’s such a calm, grounded energy about her that makes the whole process feel easy.

A pleasure to work with

It was an absolute pleasure working with Meg. She immediately understood what we were looking for and was approachable throughout the process.

Megan came up with a detailed development plan and was very attentive. Nutmeg Design is highly professional and offers beautiful design ideas.

✓ You're an established brand or growing business ready to scale on Shopify

✓ You have product-market fit and are investing in growth infrastructure

✓ You need strategic guidance throughout the build, not just at the start

✓ Your product catalog is larger or more complex (30-50 SKUs, multiple variants, or nuanced organization)

✓ You're migrating from another platform (Wix, Squarespace, WordPress) and need expert support

✓ Your brand positioning requires distinctive design that stands apart from competitors

Nutmeg Studio Shopify eCommerce web design

Why work with me

I’m Meg Hodson, founder of Nutmeg Studio and a Verified Shopify Partner since 2019. I work with product-based brands that need clarity, structure, and a site that supports how they sell.

After nearly a decade working with Shopify, I understand where the platform shines — and where careful planning matters. I design stores that balance aesthetics with performance, and strategy with practicality.

My background in communications and copywriting means I think in systems: how content is organised, how users move through the site, and how decisions are guided without friction.

I offer honest guidance throughout the process. If a different package is a better fit, I’ll say so. The goal is always the right outcome, not the biggest scope.

You’ll leave with a store you understand, supported by clear training, practical advice, and space to ask questions once the site is live.

FAQs

The core difference is depth of partnership and infrastructure. Foundation Package includes strategic planning support at the start, then I handle execution. Expert Partnership includes ongoing 1:1 consulting sessions throughout the build, premium theme infrastructure, extended customization, and 30 days post-launch support (vs. 2 weeks). Foundation is professional execution with guidance; Expert Partnership is collaborative strategic partnership throughout.

Not always — but if your catalog is complex, your brand positioning is premium, or you need advanced features (mega menus, advanced filtering, dynamic product recommendations), a premium theme provides the foundation. During our discovery call, I'll be honest about whether you'd benefit from the investment.

You work directly with me throughout the build in dedicated 1:1 sessions. We discuss navigation architecture, product organization, conversion optimization, app selection, and user experience decisions. You're not guessing or researching on your own — you're making informed choices based on a decade of eCommerce experience.

Everything listed on this page, including the premium theme purchase. The "from" indicates that final pricing depends on complexity — a 30-product store with simple shipping is R48,000, while a 200-product store with complex variants, multiple shipping zones, and wholesale functionality will be higher. We'll confirm exact pricing after the discovery call.

4-8 weeks from kickoff to launch. Timeline depends on project complexity, product catalog size, and how quickly you provide content and feedback. Simpler stores trend toward 4-5 weeks, complex builds with custom requirements may take 6-8 weeks.

Finalized branding (logo, colors, fonts), product information (descriptions, pricing, images), content for key pages (About, policies), and clarity on your business model (shipping strategy, target customer, key selling points). I'll send a detailed preparation checklist once you book.

I'll assess whether custom development is necessary or if there's an app-based solution that's more cost-effective and maintainable. For custom work beyond my scope (complex custom coding, headless builds), I have trusted developers I can refer you to. I'm always transparent about what I can and can't build.

Yes. I integrate 2-3 essential apps as part of the package (email marketing, reviews, analytics, etc.). If you need more complex integrations or custom API connections, we'll discuss scope and feasibility during discovery.
