Shopify Physical Goods Store Setup

I need a brand-new Shopify storefront configured from scratch to sell physical products. The domain and brand assets are ready; the missing piece is a fully functional store that can start taking orders right away.

Here’s what I expect to walk away with:
• Theme installed, customised to match my brand colours, fonts, and imagery
• Collections, product pages, and variant options built out (≈50 SKUs to start)
• Secure payment gateways (Shopify Payments, PayPal, plus one local option) activated and tested
• Shipping zones, rates, and label printing set up for both domestic and international fulfilment
• Essential apps configured—reviews, email capture, and basic analytics
• On-page SEO basics: clean URLs, meta titles, alt-tags, sitemap submission
• A short hand-off guide or video so I can add products and run promotions myself

The timeline is tight; I want the store live ASAP, so please outline a realistic schedule with key milestones. I’ll select a freelancer based on the clarity and completeness of the proposal—show me how you’ll tackle each step, any previous Shopify builds you’ve done that are similar, and the specific tools or apps you prefer.

If you can bring solid Shopify expertise, a sharp eye for user experience, and the ability to move fast without cutting corners, your proposal will stand out.
