Shopify agency in Bath

A small Shopify Partner agency for stores that want senior attention and a fixed price. Migrations, custom builds and retained e-commerce management, from Bath to the rest of the UK.

Quick answer: Agora Studio is a Shopify Partner agency based in Bath. We migrate stores to Shopify from Magento, WooCommerce, EKM and OpenCart for a fixed £4,999 with no deposit, build custom Shopify stores, and run ongoing e-commerce operations on retainer. You work directly with the people doing the work, and you see a working build before you pay.

Why a small agency

Most Shopify agencies are structured around account management. You talk to someone who talks to a project manager who briefs a developer. Every layer adds cost and removes accuracy, and it is why a mid-size agency quotes £18,000 for a migration that we do for £4,999.

We do not have layers. Jason Pannell leads all technical work — architecture, development, data, integrations. Vaughn Meyer handles marketing strategy and brand. Ali John runs paid acquisition. That is the team, and it is who you deal with.

What we lose in headcount we make up for in tooling. We have built our own pipelines for catalogue migration, product data processing and image handling, which is how a migration that takes an agency 3–6 months takes us 2–3 weeks.

How an engagement works

Migrations. Send us your current store URL. We build your Shopify store and send you a password-protected link to review. If you want to go live, you pay £4,999. If you do not, you owe nothing. What that price includes and what it doesn't.

Builds and projects. A scoping conversation, then a fixed price and a defined deliverable. No discovery phase billed by the day.

Retainers. A fixed monthly fee against an agreed scope. We review scope quarterly and you can stop at the end of any month.

Who we work with

Stores doing roughly £250k to £10M a year that have outgrown their platform, their theme or their developer. Founders who want to talk to the person building the thing. Businesses that have been quoted agency prices for what should be a productised job. Recent clients include JACK1T, NECES, Scotch & Soda UK and 22 Solutions.

Bath, Bristol and the South West

We are based in Bath. Most of our work is remote and most of our clients are not local, but if you are in Bath, Bristol or anywhere in the South West and would rather have the first conversation across a table, we will come to you.

Questions

How is £4,999 possible when other agencies quote £15,000 or more?

Automation and a fixed scope. We built our own migration pipeline, so the catalogue work that takes a developer 40–80 hours by hand takes us a few hours. We do not run workshops or bill for account management. And because you see the store before you pay, we do not have to price in the cost of quotes that go nowhere.

Do you work with Shopify Plus?

Yes. Multi-market, B2B, checkout customisation and Shopify Functions. If you are deciding whether Plus is worth it, read our Shopify Plus vs Adobe Commerce comparison first — it applies to most enterprise-platform decisions.

Can you take over a store another agency built?

Yes. We will review what is there, tell you what is worth keeping, and quote for the rest. We do not rebuild things for the sake of it.

Do you do marketing as well as development?

Strategy and brand through Vaughn, paid acquisition through Ali. Klaviyo flows and email are scoped separately. We are a development-led studio and we say so.
