Your shop, online
in an afternoon

The part that sold me was the money. It goes to my own Paystack account the moment somebody pays — there is no payout to wait for and nobody takes a slice of it on the way. I had stopped believing that was on offer anywhere.

Orders arrive on WhatsApp, which is where I already was all day. I stopped checking three places for the same information, and my customers stopped asking me whether their money had landed.

I photograph forty pieces at a time and I hate writing about them. Uploading the photos and getting back a title and a description I only have to tweak took a whole evening off my week, every week.

We changed design twice while we worked out what we wanted to be, and not one word or photograph went missing either time. That sounds like a small thing until you have lost a catalogue to it.

The tracking page ended the messages. Customers check it themselves with their order number, no account and no app, and my phone went quiet for the first time in a year.

I had two hundred customers and no shop — just an album and a notebook I kept losing. I built the whole thing on a Sunday afternoon and took an order before I had finished telling people it existed.
