How to find clients for E-commerce & online stores
Shops that only sell in person, or only through social media, cap their sales at their opening hours and their street.
For shopify and e-commerce agencies, online store builders. Six steps, from the first search to the last follow-up.
- 1
Search Google Maps for these businesses
Run each search in the city you sell to. These are the trades that buy this most.

Keep the ones that are ready to buy
- No Website
- No website anywhere on its listing: a search finds a map pin and a phone number.
- Social Only
- Its only home online is a social profile, such as a Facebook page.
- Outdated Design
- The site still runs Flash or jQuery 1, or its footer year is four or more years old.
- Outdated CMS
- It runs an old major version of its CMS, such as WordPress 5.7 or earlier.
Leave out: Stores whose site already has a working checkout.
- 3
Open on the right channel
Instagram-only shops answer a DM or WhatsApp; email when the site lists one.
- 4
Lead with one thing you noticed
- Sell after closing time and beyond the neighbourhood.
- Local delivery and click-and-collect from one store.
- Turn Instagram followers into orders, not DMs.

Send an opener like this one

We set up simple online stores for independent shops in city, with local delivery and click-and-collect. Would a free mockup of your store be useful? Best, sender name

- Day 7: the first-month sales a similar shop made online.
