There's a creative side too.

I've also worked on how Shopify products are explained, demonstrated and marketed.

SUPPORT FEEDBACK

Don't take my word for it.

Here's what Shopify merchants had to say.

Evolo
@ Themecraft
I'd highly recommend Brian and the team at ThemeCraft. The communication was clear, the process was easy and the result was better than I anticipated. They overdelivered on the brief whilst making it an enjoyable process.
Jayné Cahill Art
@ ThemeCraft
I'm absolutely delighted with my new website. Brian has been so helpful throughout the whole process and really took the time to understand me, my style and my business. He just got it!
OC Hire Rite
@ Themecraft
We recently had our new website developed by Themecraft, and the entire experience has been outstanding from start to finish. From the initial consultation through to launch, Brian M demonstrated exceptional professionalism, creativity, and technical expertise.
Croix Valley Foods
@Safe As Milk
The Venue theme does everything we need and more, but if I had to say one thing, it would be that they offer the best customer service EVER. Brian is incredibly supportive and responsive. These days, it's almost surprising when tech support goes out of their way to help you out, and the folks supporting the Venue theme are nailing it!
Palaudin Consulting
@Safe As Milk
Great online support. Thank you to Brian and James for saving me hours!
The Canny Company
@Safe As Milk
It's not just a great, versatile and continuously improving theme. The support guys at Safe As Milk are second to none. Always patient and helpful (important for non-techy types like me), Brian and the team provide top-notch, detailed support in an easy to understand manner. Whether you're new to Shopify or a seasoned hand, these guys give great support for the look and functionality you want.
East Forged
@Safe As Milk
Brian M, Thanks so much for your detailed instructions. I appreciate your help. Wishing you the best weekend ever!
Wicked Quick
@Safe As Milk
Not only has this theme been easy to work with, it looks great. The support is by far the best compared to others. Their response time was timely. They offered some great suggestions on how to speed up our site, and where and how to get many other various bits of info requested. Thanks Brian M!
Trail Butter Europe
@Safe As Milk
Easy to use and nice layout. Very pleased with the prompt response and solution/s provided by Brian M when I ran into some setup issue. :)
