Problems when receiving website design orders

I have a few questions to ask everyone

Currently, I have an order to design on the Shopify platform, the customer is required to copy this website and add regular sales functions with full functions such as: selling products, payment, updating shopping cart, … in general, these functions can all be done with Shopify, but I have the following questions:

  • They want me to complete the project in 1 week, is it feasible?
  • To be able to design a website like the given sample, do I need any additional skills or tools?
  • Is the price they paid me $500 for this the right price?

I hope everyone can give me advice on this issue, it is still under negotiation so I still have time to ask everyone’s opinions! Thank you everyone for helping me.

Hi @tomnguyen1

Regarding 3 quesions, here are the answers:

Timeline Feasibility: Completing a Shopify website with standard e-commerce functionalities in one week is possible if you use a pre-made theme and customize it minimally. However, duplicating a website exactly may require additional time depending on its complexity.

Skills and Tools Needed: Familiarity with Shopify’s Liquid coding, basic HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and experience with Shopify apps is essential. Tools like Shopify Theme Editor, Figma (for design), and Canva (for graphics) might also be helpful.

Pricing: $500 is on the lower end for a fully functional Shopify site, especially for a one-week timeline. The price might be reasonable for minimal customization but could undervalue your work if significant effort is needed.

If you have other questions, I am willing to answer them more.

Best regards,
