To continue your search and find your Shopify agency or Shopify Plus agency in Marseille, we recommend consulting the official Shopify agency directory.

Before making your choice, here are some important criteria to consider during your search:

• The agency's areas of expertise (e.g., e-commerce, UI/UX design, growth hacking, acquisition, social media, branding, etc.);
• Sectoral specialization (each sector and industry has its own codes and specificities). For example: beauty, fashion, pet food, etc.
• The agency's skill sets: front-end development, back-end development, UX, web design, integration. Whether it's a redesign, migration, or creation of an e-commerce site: each project has its technical and creative needs;
• The portfolio, i.e., e-commerce references and Shopify projects completed;
• The design of a back-end adapted to your needs: The design of a store concerns both the aesthetic and visible part of a site (front), but also the back-office, i.e., the part you will manage and administer daily. It is essential to have a simple and well-thought-out back-office for you. This point will be crucial for your technical autonomy once the site is launched.
• The size of the agency: It is important to find an agency that is well-sized for your project. While a freelancer is inexpensive but works alone, an SME with 100 employees has significant structural costs... So it's up to you to find the right balance for maximum peace of mind and success.
• Your contact person for the project: your contact throughout the project must be involved, reliable, and available;
• The quality of the recommendation and the quote: don't limit yourself to the total cost shown in a quote and ask yourself the right questions: does the budget envelope meet 100% of my needs? Are all the components well integrated? What about after-sales service after launch? Once all competing quotes have been received, make sure you compare apples to apples and take the time to analyze everything in detail, item by item.

When searching for the best Shopify or Shopify Plus agency in Marseille, also consider the following points:

• Recurring fees ("Running fees"): The Shopify model includes subscriptions (Shopify plan, app costs, sales commissions) to be paid each month. Take this into account when developing your overall budget and technical choices (Apps vs. custom developments);
• Shopify helps avoid traditional maintenance fees: the reliability and constant evolution (SaaS) of the Shopify ecosystem guarantee top performance (servers, speed, conversion funnel, etc.). This budget can now be converted into marketing and media expenses;
• Iteration in e-commerce: do things well and at the right time! There's no need to overload your site with every imaginable feature and third-party service from its launch. Give yourself time to test and learn before deploying certain costly and demanding features. With the help of your agency, prioritize a phased plan. This will also allow you to better manage and distribute your budget.
