In order to bring Steep Hill Tea Company to life online, Dino signed up for the ShopHERE powered by Google program.
“The program helped maneuver through the mounds of information required to start up an eCommerce site.”
Dino was able to design a website for his tea business that was easy to use with the knowledge and guidance from his eCommerce Coordinator. His Coordinator helped with the initial site setup, allowing Dino to save time for other priorities and accelerate how fast he was able to hit the market.
“It is a very helpful program in providing guidance and support in getting stores to the digital world.”
Dino was grateful for the resources provided to lean on during uncertain times and the incentives that may not have been available if he had just created the website himself, such as the Facebook Ads credit and free support from his eCommerce Coordinator.
While it was challenging and a big learning curve for Dino to set up his eCommerce store, he found leveraging Square Up made the setup easier and saved a lot of time and expenses compared to hiring a professional website developer.
“ShopHERE provides a support structure to ease the challenges of launching an online business.”
