Working with Rax and the team at The Hope Factory on Jo Mercer, Wittner & Shelly Shen has been a really positive experience. They’ve been responsive, collaborative and consistently supportive across our website development and optimisation projects. I really value their ability to problem solve quickly, communicate clearly and help bring ideas to life in a way that feels aligned to both the brand and customer experience.

Working with The Hope Factory team on Timber Kids was a unique experience. As the agency's owner, I'm obviously close to our work, but this project reminded me how special our team is and why I love what we do. The brief was clear - modernise the design, improve the user experience, and ultimately lift conversions on key pages. Our design team nailed the aesthetic – clean, warm, and perfectly suited to the brand's audience of parents and educators. But the real satisfaction came when development handed over a build that matched the custom design. No compromises, no "we couldn't quite get that to work" conversations. Most importantly, the numbers backed it up. Conversion rates on key pages improved noticeably after launch, which was the key measure of success for this project. It's one thing to deliver a beautiful store; it's another to deliver one that actually performs better. The Timber Kids project achieved both, and I'm super proud of what Rax and the team produced.

Hi Team, From the start to the end, I worked with an amazing team that were helpful, professional and provided guidance and support every step of the way which helped get through what seemed like a daunting process to begin with. The team were very accomodating to any request that I had and I had confidence in their ability to deliver on my goals and objectives. I really enjoying working with Gati who was went above and beyond at all hours of the day to help me Cant say anything but positive praise for the team! Thank you Rax and Gati

The Hope Factory was very helpful and professional with the integration of our old website to our sparkly new Shopify one. There was very little that we had to do once we gave them a brief of what we wanted, we were consistently kept up to date of the development progress. We were delivered a website that exceeded our expectations in a timely manner, that was customized perfectly to our store.

We are so glad that we were recommended to use the Hope Factory to design and implement our new website. From the very start Andrew and Rax provided a clear and precise quote for their services that was suitable for our business requirements. The process to design and develop our Shopify website was a simple process. Our development manager Gati actually made the project enjoyable and neither party had ridiculous deadlines or expectations. All of the milestones were able to be achieved in the given timeframes. What was extremely helpful for us was that no matter what technical question we gave to Gati, she was able to provide an immediate response and ón the rare occassion that she couldn't; a solution was always found very soon after it was requested. Given our inexperience with the Shopify platform Gati was always thinking ahead of us and providing suggestions to further enhance our new website design. The team at The Hope Factory have an extensive knowledge of suitable Shopify apps to suit any business requirements and they were also happy to work with our business partners including our POS and SEO teams. The results have been dramatic and within the first two weeks we have had a 40% increase in our online sales. We highly recommend the Hope Factory team for any Shopify design and integration projects.

Our new Shopify store has been live for 1 month and we are extremely happy with it! The Hope Factory team were able to bring our ideas to fruition in record time, this is largely due to the amazing efforts of Rax. Her communication, knowledge (we call her the Shopify oracle) and dedication to our project has been phenomenal - any issues that occurred were resolved promptly. It has been great working Rax with the Hope Factory team - highly recommend!

Super patient while I got things in line to launch a Shopify store, and did a great job of creating an easy to use and slick online presence. Attention to detail was excellent, great assistance with plug-ins and apps that make the store much more efficient to run than my previous systems. The end result was an online presence that requires less time to achieve the same level of sales.
