Tim, Gareth and the team have been exceptional throughout, and the results have already shown the benefit for moving to Shopify Plus. In just 4 weeks since launch we have seen a tremendous increase in revenue.

Mark Till, Ecommerce Manager, Face the Future

Gareth, Tim & the team have been fabulous in setting up a new Shopify website to replace our dated website. We are instantly getting better feedback from customers saying it is a far better user experience. We hope after the global pandemic our sales will be back at full whack! If you are looking for an e-commerce website and a good marketing campaign, I highly recommend Herd. Just make sure you book these guys in early as they are incredibly busy.

Sam Borthwick, Maxxgrab

I had the opportunity to work with Herd on a difficult integration process and can tell that they are very professional, responsive and ... patient. It was a real pleasure to work with them. I can only speak well of the company
