NoWave: Embracing Emerging Trends

December 12, 2022

With more than a decade of experience building a brand and creating an online presence within Shopify, it’s no surprise that the team behind NoWave attracted others who wanted to sell online. With so much interest, they quickly realized that they could use their collective expertise in product development to guide other entrepreneurs, and thus, the e-commerce agency, NoWave Consulting, was born!

NoWave’s mission is to guide startup companies through the process of branding and selling their products in a digital market. As e-commerce is the future of retail, at NoWave, they don’t see online selling channels as a business expense, but as an opportunity.

“It’s accessible to anybody, you can basically run a small business from your home,” said NoWave Agency.

“If you have a great product, great pictures, and a presence on social media, there is no reason why you should not give it a try.”

The team attributes much of NoWave’s growing client base to their ability to understand customer needs, while respecting their vision, timeframe and budget.

“It’s not just about making a website, but helping them understand the market really well and the potential growth,” said the agency.

NoWave is a proud Shopify partner, and is passionate about upskilling their employees through Shopify’s training tools, updates, and digital events. As Shopify reaches new heights, NoWave is embracing their 2.0 updates making it easier for clients to build, edit and customize their storefronts.

“I actually wish customers would not be afraid to update to Shopify 2.0,” said the agency. “Doing optimization can only be positive. We always compare it to a garden: You have to maintain and add water, otherwise it will not grow.”

As e-commerce is ever-changing, the team at NoWave ensures its clients know how to integrate emerging trends, not just set up a website. That’s part of what makes NoWave so unique: with their background in the fashion industry and product design, they know that trends come and go, and encourage their clients to embrace it.

“You cannot be afraid to use it! And yes, there are always changes, especially with social media, like Tik Tok, Marketplace, but that can be integrated into your website,” said the agency.

As for what it takes to build a strong e-commerce platform? NoWave suggests testing out digital strategies on a small scale to build the base that’s right for your business.

“I recommend getting an audience first, knowing your customer and how to teach them, the rest will follow,” said NoWave Agency.

“And again, don’t be afraid to give e-commerce a try. It’s a lot more affordable than it used to be, a lot more user-friendly, and it’s fun!”

The team at NoWave is excited to continue focusing on e-commerce solutions while keeping up-to-date with new apps, trends and technology. Interested in pivoting your business to a digital market? Check out NoWave’s website to learn how they can take your startup to the next level!
