I will create an ecommerce store and DTC product brand identity
About this gig
Launch a conversion-ready ecommerce store and a memorable DTC product brand identity built for direct-to-consumer founders who need a real storefront, not a template.
Overview
If you're a DTC founder shipping a physical product, you already know the hard truth: a beautiful logo without a working store sells nothing, and a working store with a forgettable brand gets ignored in a crowded feed. This gig solves both at once. I design and build a complete direct-to-consumer brand identity AND the ecommerce store it lives on, so your launch looks like a funded company instead of a side hustle.
I work specifically with consumer product brands — supplements and wellness, skincare and beauty, food and beverage, coffee, apparel, pet products, home goods, candles, and other shelf-and-cart categories. That focus matters. The buying psychology, the trust signals, the unboxing expectations, and the conversion patterns for a DTC product are not the same as for a SaaS app or a local service business, and the brand and store are designed around how people actually decide to buy consumer goods online.
What you get
- A complete brand identity system: primary logo, secondary/stacked marks, and a submark or favicon for tight spaces
- A defined color palette (primary, secondary, and neutrals) with HEX, RGB, and where relevant Pantone references
- Typography system — display and body pairings chosen for legibility on packaging and on screen
- Brand voice and positioning notes: your one-line value proposition, tagline options, and tone guidance
- A built ecommerce store on Shopify (preferred) — or WooCommerce/another platform on request — fully themed to your new identity
- Product page templates engineered for conversion: hero, benefits, ingredient/spec breakdown, reviews block, FAQ, and sticky add-to-cart
- Home, collection/catalog, about, contact, and cart/checkout styling consistent with the brand
- Mobile-first responsive layouts (the majority of DTC traffic is mobile)
- Core conversion plumbing: clear CTAs, trust badges, shipping/returns messaging, and email capture
- A brand guidelines PDF so every future designer, printer, and freelancer stays on-brand
- Packaged, organized source and export files

How it works
- Discovery — You complete a short brand questionnaire covering your product, target customer, competitors, and category. We align on goals and which plan fits your launch.
- Direction — I research your niche and present a moodboard plus 1–2 brand directions (logo concept, palette, type, and the feel of the store).
- Identity build — Once a direction is approved, I finalize the logo system, colors, typography, and voice, then assemble the guidelines.
- Store build — I set up and theme your ecommerce store, build the product page templates, load your supplied products and copy, and wire up cart, navigation, and email capture.
- Review & revisions — You review on a live preview link. We refine within your plan's revision scope.
- Handoff — You receive store access, all brand files, the guidelines PDF, and a short walkthrough so you can add products and run the store yourself.
Why choose this
Most freelancers do brand OR store. Stitching the two together later means mismatched colors, off-brand templates, and a launch that feels disjointed. Doing both in one engagement keeps the visual identity and the storefront perfectly consistent — the palette on your logo is the palette in your cart, the voice on your packaging is the voice on your product page.
I design for conversion, not just for looks. Every product page is structured around the questions a DTC buyer asks before they trust a new brand with their card: What is it, why is it better, is it safe, who else bought it, and what happens after I order. The store is built clean and fast on platforms you can actually maintain, with no dependency on me to make a routine update.
Who it is for / use cases
This is built for direct-to-consumer product founders, specifically:
- Supplement and wellness brands launching a hero SKU and needing trust-heavy product pages
- Skincare, beauty, and personal care brands that live or die on visual identity and ingredient storytelling
- Food, beverage, and coffee brands needing appetizing pages and subscription-ready layouts
- Apparel and accessories labels wanting a cohesive lookbook-style store
- Pet, home goods, candles, and lifestyle products entering a crowded marketplace
- Founders rebranding an existing store that looks DIY and underconverts
- Crowdfunding creators moving from a campaign to a permanent storefront
FAQ
Q: Which ecommerce platform do you build on? Shopify is my default because it's the most reliable for DTC product brands and easiest for you to manage. I also build on WooCommerce and select other platforms — just tell me before we start.
Q: Do I need to provide product photos and copy? Yes, you provide product images and your product descriptions. I handle layout, design, and the conversion structure. If your photos need light editing or your copy needs polishing, mention it and we'll scope it in.
Q: Can you migrate or redesign my existing store? Absolutely. If you already have a store that looks generic and underperforms, I can rebrand the identity and rebuild the storefront around it while preserving your existing products.
Q: Do you handle apps, payments, shipping, and taxes? I configure the store theme, pages, navigation, and core conversion elements. Payment gateway, shipping rates, and tax settings depend on your account and region — I'll guide you through connecting them, but the financial/legal setup is yours to confirm.
Q: How many product pages or templates are included? It depends on your plan. Basic includes one product template, Standard covers a full store of up to ten products, and Premium covers up to twenty-five with custom layouts per collection. Larger catalogs can be quoted as an add-on.
Q: Will the logo work on packaging and labels? Yes. The mark family is delivered in vector with light/dark variants and a submark for small spaces, so it scales cleanly from a favicon to a box, a label, or a hang tag.
Q: What do I need to provide to get started? Your product details, any existing assets (current logo, photos), your target customer, a few brands you admire, and your platform preference. The discovery questionnaire walks you through all of it.
Q: Can I update the store myself after handoff? Yes — that's the point. The build is clean and uses standard platform features, and I include a short walkthrough so you can add products, edit pages, and run promotions without coming back to me for routine changes.

Solid work overall on my activewear brand. The store build and logo were exactly what I wanted, and they were patient through two rounds of revisions on the typography. Only knocked a star because the initial collection page needed a bit more guidance from me to get the spacing right, but the final result looks professional.

Launched my skincare DTC line with this and the whole Shopify store plus the brand identity came back polished and cohesive. The logo, color palette, and product page layouts all felt like they belonged to one brand, and the packaging mockups made it easy to brief my supplier. Communication was constant and the turnaround was faster than I expected.

Did a fantastic job setting up my coffee subscription store. The storefront was clean and conversion-focused and the brand guide they handed over has saved me so much time on every Instagram post since.
