Attic Womens Wear
Services:
Design, Development, Ecommerce, Shopify POS
After identifying a gap in the market, Attic Womenswear was established in 2007 by Sarah Lyles, whom has an extensive background in design, buying and retail. Attic appeals to women with a sense of style, and a clear mix of prices.
The store is modern and contemporary with brands sourced from far and wide tailored to our customers needs. Attic knows a good sense of design which encapsulates interesting and luxurious pieces for modern women.
The problem
Attic womenswear had an outdated site e-commerce site built on an old, out of date platform. Because the site was difficult to manage, new stock was rarely added to the site and managing customers and orders through the site was getting increasingly difficult as items sold via the site weren't always in stock and available for immediate delivery
What we did
Having tried multiple e-Commerce platforms and a number of designers, Attic Womenswear approached us to help them complete their Shopify set up and make design customisations to enhance their chosen theme and bring their quality brand to live.
One of the main deciding factors for Attic in choosing Shopify was not only how easy the admin system is but the ability to be fully in control of their site for the first time.
Whilst building the site for them we also introduced them to the newly released Shopify POS. They were blown away by how easy it was to do and the ability to keep their stock in sync between their bricks and mortar shop and their online shop as well as now having centralised reporting for the first time made it an easy decision for them.
As well as sourcing the hardware we also ran a full shop install, running cabling and installing new wifi routers and power points where they needed. Following this we provided on site staff training to ensure that the full attic team were fully up to speed.
The outcome
The in Shop POS has not only saved Attic money in comparison to their previous till system rental but has massively improved the speed at which they can now order new stock and have it ready for sale in minimal time. As one of the first installs of the Shopify POS it quickly became a talking point in the local area, inspiring many other local shops to also make the jump to Shopify too.
Sales through the online store massively jumped up with many new customers also becoming in shop customers too.
The site continues to perform well and serves as a great platform to bring to life the ever growing seasonal fashion range.
“I have been seriously impressed with the guys and (girls) at Squashed Pixel. I picked up the phone needing help to get my website off the ground and some programming work, which was all carried out effortlessly and with no problems at all. This has now led to launching an in store epos system which has changed how I can manage and drive my business forward. The team are always on hand and have solutions to any problems I have and usually results are immediate. I must recommend Squashed pixel they are dynamic, skilled, innovative, creative, reliable and caring. A pleasure to work with and they are making my life so much easier.”
