Can Shopify handle wholesale orders for Chicago brands?
+
Yes. Shopify B2B supports company accounts with multiple buyers, custom price lists, volume pricing, payment terms and quick reorder. Retailers order online at any hour, your team stops retyping emails into spreadsheets, and inventory stays accurate across consumer and wholesale channels.
Do you integrate Shopify with ERP systems?
+
We connect Shopify to common ERPs, accounting tools and 3PLs using native connectors or custom middleware. Orders, inventory, customers and pricing sync automatically, which matters for Chicago manufacturers and distributors who already run their operations on an ERP. Every integration is tested with real orders before launch.
Can you redesign our Shopify store before the holiday season?
+
Yes, if we start early enough. We plan holiday ready redesigns to launch well before peak traffic, with load testing, checkout checks and gifting features in place. If time is tight, we prioritize speed and conversion fixes on the current store instead.
How much does a Shopify build cost for a Chicago brand?
+
It depends on catalog size, B2B needs, integrations and custom features. We quote after a scoping call with a fixed scope and timeline in writing. Senior Shopify developers in Mumbai cost far less than Chicago studios, and the work meets Shopify Partner standards.
Do we need Shopify Plus?
+
Plus makes sense for high order volumes, complex B2B, checkout customization or multiple storefronts. Many Chicago brands do well on standard plans first, and Shopify B2B features are now broader than they were. We recommend after looking at your volume and wholesale needs.
Can you migrate us from Magento or WooCommerce?
+
Yes. We move products, variants, customers, order history and B2B accounts, rebuild the catalog in Shopify and redirect every old URL so search rankings carry over. Migrations are planned around your selling calendar, never in the middle of peak season.
Where is Baclinc based, and does that matter for Chicago clients?
+
Baclinc is headquartered in Mumbai, India, and we work with clients across the United States and worldwide. It matters in your favor. You get a senior in-house team at a price no comparable US agency can offer, working while you sleep, with a fixed daily overlap window for live calls. Digital work has not required a shared zip code for a decade. What it requires is people who are genuinely excellent at it.
How do you handle the time difference with Chicago?
+
It is an advantage, not a problem. We run about half a day ahead of US time, so work you brief at the end of your day is finished when you start the next one. You effectively get an extra working day every night. We hold a fixed daily overlap window for calls, and we are reachable on Slack, email or WhatsApp through your working day.
How much does it cost to work with Baclinc from the US?
+
Engagements start at $2,000 per month, and most sit meaningfully above that depending on scope and speed. That buys you senior specialists and a standard of work that US agencies charge several times more for. We are not the cheapest option and we are not trying to be. We are the best value at this level of quality anywhere in the world.
Do you work with US companies already?
+
Yes. We work with brands across the United States and internationally, and we have run US ecommerce accounts including a dropshipping store that did $10,000+ in sales in 20 days at 5.5x ROAS on TikTok Ads. Our team works to a global standard because our clients compete globally.
Who actually does the work?
+
Senior in-house specialists. 25+ people across SEO, engineering, content, paid media and creative, all employed by us, all in one office. The people who win the pitch are the people who run your account. We do not outsource, we do not hand you to a junior queue, and we do not staff accounts with whoever is free.
How do communication and reporting work?
+
You get a named senior lead, a shared channel on Slack or your tool of choice, live dashboards you can open at any time, a weekly written read on what changed and what we are testing, and a monthly review against the targets we agreed. Everything is in English, everything is documented, and nothing depends on you chasing us.
Who owns the work and the accounts?
+
You do, completely. Your ad accounts, your analytics, your website, your content and your creative assets stay in your ownership throughout and after the engagement. We work inside your accounts, not behind a wall. There is no lock-in, no proprietary platform you have to keep paying for, and no hostage situation if you leave.
How do contracts and payment work for US clients?
+
Straightforward monthly agreements, invoiced in USD, paid by international bank transfer or card. No long lock-ins. We work on rolling terms because we would rather keep clients on results than on contracts. Confidentiality agreements are standard and we sign yours.
