lizardbot offers a done-for-you Shopify store setup service for businesses in the US and the Dominican Republic: design, product catalog, payments, shipping, your domain, legal pages, mobile and SEO groundwork, plus training. The Shopify account, domain and customer data stay in your name. If you would rather build it yourself, we sell one-time-payment Shopify themes at lizardassets.com.
A Shopify store for people who want to sell, not configure
Opening a Shopify account takes minutes. Launching a store that earns trust, loads fast on a phone and takes payments without hiccups takes a lot more. That part is our job: you focus on your products, we handle the store.
This service is a good fit if:
- You sell through Instagram, WhatsApp or marketplaces and want a store of your own with a cart and checkout.
- You are launching a brand and need the store ready on day one.
- You already have a store, on Shopify or another platform, and want a redesign or a move to Shopify.
What our Shopify store setup service includes
- Design: one of our themes tailored to your brand, or a custom design.
- Catalog: products, photos, prices, variants and collections.
- Payments and shipping: we set up how you get paid and how you deliver.
- Your domain: connected to the store.
- Legal pages: privacy, terms, shipping and returns.
- Mobile and SEO: the store looks right on phones and has solid technical SEO groundwork.
- Training: we show you how to change products, prices and photos on your own.
How it works: four steps
- Tell us what you sell. A short conversation about your brand, your products and who you sell to.
- Pick your style. Choose one of our Shopify themes or ask for a design made just for your brand.
- We build it for you. We set up the store and test it before handover.
- Get the keys. We launch your store, show you how to run it and stay close if you need us.
To get started we only need your logo and brand colors (or we define them with you), your product list with photos and prices, and how you want to get paid and ship.
What you get: a store in your name
The Shopify account, the domain and your customer data stay in your name. You pay the Shopify subscription directly to Shopify; our job is to design, build and leave your store running. You pay for our work in milestones, and revisions are included.
Why Shopify for your online store?
Hosting, security and updates are included, so there is no server to maintain. Products, inventory, orders and shipping live in one admin. And it grows with you: from ten products to thousands without rebuilding the store. Our themes are built for Online Store 2.0, so you edit them in Shopify's own theme editor, no code required.
Common mistakes when setting up a Shopify store
- Mismatched product photos. Different sizes and backgrounds make the catalog look messy and cost you trust.
- Skipping legal and shipping pages. They are the first thing a new buyer checks.
- Designing for desktop only. Most shopping sessions tend to start on a phone.
- Installing too many apps. Each one adds weight and can slow the store down.
- Leaving the account in someone else's name. Your store and your customers should belong to you.
Live Shopify stores and themes you can buy

Frequently asked questions
How much does Shopify store setup cost with lizardbot?
Each store is scoped to your catalog and the design you choose. Tell us what you sell and within 24 hours we send a no-commitment estimate, paid in milestones. If you would rather do it yourself, our themes at lizardassets.com are a one-time payment.
Do I pay Shopify separately?
Yes. You pay the Shopify subscription directly to Shopify, in your name. Our job is to design, build and leave your store running, and to show you how to manage it.
Is the store mine, and can I run it myself?
Yes. The account, the domain and your customer data stay in your name. At handover we show you how to change products, prices and photos, so you do not depend on us for day-to-day updates.
Can you migrate my existing store to Shopify?
Yes. If you already have a store, we can redesign it or move your catalog to Shopify. We review your products, collections and pages, then plan the move so your store keeps running with as little disruption as possible.
What do you need from me to get started?
Your logo and brand colors, or we define them with you; your product list with photos and prices; and how you want to get paid and how you will ship. That is enough for our first conversation.
Should I hire you or just buy a Shopify theme?
With the done-for-you service we design, load your catalog, set up payments and shipping and train you. If you buy a theme at lizardassets.com, you get a ready-to-install design and build the store at your own pace.
