Ecommerce/Shopify projects can get quite complex, so sometimes it's nice to start off by sitting round a table in-person with your agency, so you can explain how you need your store to work. Imaginaire HQ is just a few minutes from Nottingham City Centre and has plenty of meeting space for in-person collaboration.

Approach

How our ecommerce agency in Nottingham works with local online retailers

Approach

We're one of the UK's leading Shopify/Shopify Plus agencies, but we still love working with businesses based locally to us in Nottingham.

You'll benefit from working with a local agency because you'll be able to meet us in person, making explaining what makes your ecommerce business tick much easier. We can even come to your warehouse/factory if you'd like to show us your product range.

Locality isn't the only reason you'd choose Imaginaire as your Shopify agency though.

The main reason retailers choose us is that we have an acute commercial understanding and we know the importance of getting your project right from a design and brand perspective, as well as setting your store up for success from an SEO/AI Discoverability angle.

Get in touch with us today to arrange a free initial chat about your Shopify project.

Why Imaginaire

Why do Nottingham brands choose Imaginaire as their Shopify agency?

There are a lot of ecommerce agencies within a few miles of us, so it can be hard to know who to pick. We wanted to give you a quick cheatsheet of the reasons local businesses choose us.

Ecommerce first, since 2014

The bulk of our work is with online retailers, so the advice you get is based on stores like yours. We have over 12 years' experience in knowing what works from a conversions perspective, for a multitude of ecommerce business types.

SEO team involved in every build

Our in-house SEO team plans the structure of a new site before design starts. It's how Alert Electrical kept their rankings through a full platform migration.

Senior people on your project

You'll work with experienced designers, developers and SEO specialists, and our founder stays close to every account. You won't be passed to a junior once the project is signed.

Based in Nottingham

We're on Nottingham Science Park, off University Boulevard and next to the University of Nottingham. Kick-off meetings and quarterly reviews happen face to face.

Our workflow

What happens after you get in touch with our Nottingham agency?

Whether you need a new store, help with marketing or both, the first few weeks look much the same. Here's how we've been running things since 2014.

Discovery call

We'll start with a 30 minute call, usually with Seb, our founder. He'll ask about your turnover, your platform, what's frustrating you and what good looks like in a year's time.

If we don't think we're the right fit, we'll say so and point you towards someone who is.

Discovery call

Audit and plan

We'll review your current website (if you have one) and the features that we think need to stay, the features that we think could improve conversions and customer experience and the SEO value of your website.

If you don't have a website yet, we can create a perfect-picture document from this.

This scope of work is what forms your fixed-price quotation and how long it'll take us.

Audit and plan

Delivery

Hopefully after meeting us and seeing our proposal, you'll want to work with us.

Once you do, you'll be assigned a dedicated project manager and they'll organise our designers, developers and marketing teams across the timeline we've agreed.

Every site passes through our 96-point QA checklist, making sure it works perfectly across devices, browsers and for search.

Delivery

Review and grow

If you choose to go onto monthly marketing services with us, you'll get monthly reporting on traffic, orders and revenue, plus quarterly strategy sessions in person at our office or yours.

After any launch, our team watches rankings daily for four weeks so that you can get on with trading.

Testimonials

Client thoughts

A handful of ambitious brands each year, treated like our own company is on the line. Their words, not ours.

Parkside Architectural Tiles

We’ve worked with Imaginaire on the development of our new website as well as our ongoing web dev and SEO activity, and the team have been brilliant throughout. They take the time to understand our business, objectives and often quite detailed requirements, translating them into practical solutions that work for both our customers and internal teams.

They’re knowledgeable, approachable and always responsive when we need support or advice. We particularly value their collaborative approach, they feel like an extension of our marketing team rather than an external agency.

We’re really pleased with the website and the progress we’ve made together so far, and would happily recommend Imaginaire to any business looking for a reliable web development and SEO partner.

Questions Nottingham businesses ask us

Machine Mart, Wattbike and Nottingham Lighting Centre are all based a few miles from our office. Further afield, we work with retailers across the UK including Alert Electrical, Parkside Tiles and David Morris in London. You can see the detail in our case studies.

Yes. We're a Shopify and Shopify Plus agency based in Nottingham, and we've built and grown Shopify stores for retailers across the UK since 2014. If you're on Magento or WooCommerce and thinking about moving, we handle the migration with the data and SEO taken care of.

Ecommerce is our specialism and the majority of our clients sell online, to consumers or to trade customers. Our web design team also builds brochure websites for Nottingham businesses that win work through enquiries, which you can read about on our Nottingham web design page. We don't do print, social media management or branding on its own.

It varies a great deal between agencies, which is why we publish ours. Brochure websites start from £10k, Shopify stores from £25k and Shopify Plus projects from £30k. SEO retainers start from £1.5k per month for local businesses and £3k per month for online stores, with PPC retainers from £3k per month. Our prices reflect senior people doing the work, and the numbers in our case studies show what that gets you.

Yes, and most of our local clients do. We're on Nottingham Science Park, off University Boulevard and next to the University of Nottingham. Kick-off meetings and quarterly reviews usually happen face to face, here or at your office.

No. Many of the Nottingham businesses we work with are run by an owner or director who handles this themselves. We talk in enquiries, orders and revenue, and we do the day-to-day work so it doesn't land on your desk. Where there is a marketing manager, we work with them directly and keep you in the loop at decision points.

You can, and some of our clients did before coming to us. The feedback we hear most often is that the senior people disappear after the pitch and the rates include London rents. David Morris, a Bond Street jeweller, chose a Nottingham agency over London ones for that reason.

Yes. Our Nottingham SEO and Nottingham web design pages cover each service in more detail, including pricing.

As well as Nottingham itself, we work with businesses across Nottinghamshire and the East Midlands, including Derby, Leicester, Mansfield and Newark. The majority of our clients are elsewhere in the UK. Brands in the UAE can also work with our Dubai office.
