Shopify expertise without the Shopify agency overhead. Founder-led design and development for ecommerce businesses across Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Telford, Staffordshire and Shropshire.
Most Shopify agencies in the West Midlands are built for scale. There's an account manager, a project manager, a designer, a developer and a monthly retainer — and a good chunk of what you pay covers the machinery rather than your store.
We work differently. Digital Marbles is founder-led, so the person you speak to is the person designing and building your store. There's no retainer, no layers to talk through, and no budget quietly disappearing into overhead. You get the standard of work larger agencies charge a fortune for, priced against your actual project.
That's the whole proposition: Shopify expertise without the Shopify agency overhead. If you want a big agency with a big team and a big invoice, there are plenty in Birmingham. If you want someone genuinely good who answers the phone, that's us.
Whether you're launching, rebuilding or trying to fix a store that isn't pulling its weight, it's one of these six.
A brand-led store built to sell from day one — not a lightly restyled theme.
Learn more →Already on Shopify but it looks dated or isn't converting? A rebuild around what actually sells.
Learn more →Move from WooCommerce, Wix, Magento or Squarespace without losing your search rankings.
Learn more →Slow stores leak sales. We strip the weight out and get Core Web Vitals under control.
Learn more →Turn more of the traffic you already pay for into orders — the cheapest growth there is.
Learn more →Changes, fixes and improvements handled by the person who built the store.
Learn more →Real stores for real businesses — and what changed as a result.
Ecommerce businesses across the West Midlands tend to share a problem: they've either outgrown a DIY store, or they've been quoted eye-watering figures by an agency for something that shouldn't cost that much.
A founder-led studio sits in the gap. You get proper conversion-focused design, clean development and someone who understands that a store is a commercial asset, not a design exercise — at a price that reflects the work rather than the office.
And because we're not chasing retainer revenue, we'll tell you honestly when you don't need us. Sometimes the answer is a few focused fixes, not a rebuild.
What you sell, who buys it, and where the current store is losing them. No pitch deck.
Brand-led layouts built around the buying journey, not a theme's default sections.
Fast, clean Shopify development with speed and technical SEO handled as we go.
Careful launch, then measure and refine. Support only if you want it.
Based in Shrewsbury, working with ecommerce businesses right across the region.
We write plainly about the things that actually move the needle on a Shopify store:
Yes. We're based in Shrewsbury and work with ecommerce businesses right across the region — Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Telford, Walsall, Dudley and throughout Staffordshire and Shropshire. Most of the work happens remotely, and we'll travel to meet you where it genuinely helps the project.
Our Shopify Starter build is £1,500 and Shopify Growth is £3,000, with larger or more custom projects priced against the actual scope. There's no retainer — you pay for the build, and ongoing support is optional.
Not in the usual sense. We're a founder-led studio, which means you deal directly with the person designing and building your store rather than an account manager. You get agency-level work without the agency overhead being priced into it.
Yes — redesigns and rescues are a large part of what we do. If your store is live but slow, dated or simply not converting, we'll audit it first and tell you honestly whether it needs a rebuild or just focused fixes.
Yes. Migrations from WooCommerce, Wix, Magento and Squarespace are handled with a full URL map and 301 redirects so the SEO equity you've built carries across. Losing rankings in a migration is avoidable, and it comes down to planning the redirects properly.
A focused Starter build typically runs three to four weeks; a larger Growth project six to eight, depending on product count, content readiness and any custom functionality.
Tell us what you're building and we'll come back with a straight, honest quote — no pitch, no retainer.
