Why E-commerce MVPs Fail
And How To Avoid It
We've seen dozens of founders in e-commerce make these mistakes.
Shopify plugin hell
Stitching together 47 apps that don't quite work together.
Our SolutionWhen you're paying $500/month in plugins and still hacking around limitations, it's time to build custom. Your workflow is your moat.
Building a generic store when you need a platform
Treating a marketplace or B2B portal like a simple storefront.
Our SolutionMarketplaces, B2B ordering systems, and subscription boxes aren't stores—they're platforms. Build them as platforms from day one.
Inventory complexity from day one
Building for 10,000 SKUs when you have 50.
Our SolutionStart with simple inventory. Add warehouse management, multi-location, and complex fulfillment when your operations demand it.
What Your MVP Actually Needs
Don't waste budget on features you don't need yet. Focus on validation.
Must Haves
- Product catalog (your specific structure)
- Cart and checkout flow
- Payment processing (Stripe)

- Customer accounts
Wait For Later
