Squarespace vs Shopify: Which Is Right For You?
Not all platforms are created equal, and the right choice depends on your business type, goals and how you want to manage your site. Here's a quick overview to help you get a feel for what each platform offers.
Squarespace is ideal for service businesses, content creators, and clients wanting a beautiful, easy-to-manage platform.
Shopify is perfect for product-based businesses needing eCommerce features, payment integration, and scalability.
No matter what platform we work with, we always base it in strategy, your brand goals, and your particular brand aesthetic.

Here’s a peek at two recent website projects, complete with thoughtful words from our lovely clients. Each project is custom, strategy-led and designed to reflect the heart of the business.
“I engaged Tanya to refresh my agency's Squarespace website and couldn't be more pleased with the result!
Tanya collaborated closely with me to understand goals and objectives and created a site that I LOVE. It now accurately represents our business and aligns with our future direction. Tanya, your dedication and expertise made this process truly exceptional. Thank you for your outstanding work.”
