No upfront option

Marketplaces can bring orders, but they take a slice of every sale. They also keep the customer relationship. You may fulfil the order, but the marketplace controls the buyer, the data and the next purchase.

Your own online shop puts that relationship back in your hands. You keep more of each order, build your own customer list and make it easier for trade buyers to reorder. You can show trade-only prices, minimum order values and bulk options clearly.

The problem

What is costing Wholesale & Trade Sellers work right now

Marketplace fees eat your margin

Amazon, Etsy, eBay and Not On The High Street can take a share of every order. You also compete beside similar sellers and have limited control over the customer relationship.

Repeat buyers reorder by phone

A trade customer may need the same products every month, yet your current site gives them no simple reorder route. Your team spends time finding prices, checking stock and taking details.

Trade pricing stays hidden

Standard retail ecommerce sites rarely handle account approval, minimum orders, bulk prices or credit terms properly. Buyers then ask for information by email before they can place an order.

We use your details only to reply to this enquiry. No lists, no sharing.

The result

What changes once it is live

More margin stays with you

Your own shop reduces dependence on marketplace sales. You keep control of the customer relationship, build your own list and can encourage repeat orders without paying a marketplace fee each time.

Trade orders arrive ready

Customers can choose products, quantities, delivery details and payment online. Quote forms collect the information your team needs, so fewer enquiries require several follow-up messages.

Repeat buying becomes easier

Clear accounts, product ranges and reorder routes make regular purchasing simpler. A trade buyer can return to your shop instead of searching a marketplace or calling for the same information.

01

Your website runs the sales operation while you work

Your online shop becomes the centre of your sales process. Customers can browse product ranges, check pack sizes, choose delivery and pay without waiting for someone to reply. Your team can then focus on picking, packing, sourcing and serving important accounts.

Wholesale buyers often order outside office hours. They may need another box of fixings, a repeat case of products or stock for a morning job. Your shop lets them order when it suits them, while clear product information reduces avoidable calls and emails.

We connect the parts that make the sale work, including product pages, checkout, payment providers, delivery choices, stock and order management. The result is an online shop for wholesale and trade sellers that supports your real working day.

  • Product pages that explain trade value
  • Payments through Stripe and PayPal
  • Shipping and delivery rules
  • Stock and order management
  • Ecommerce tracking and reporting

02

Local trade buyers find you before the marketplace

A strong shop should show up when nearby businesses search for the products you supply. We build useful product and service pages around the areas you cover, so buyers in Newcastle upon Tyne, Gateshead, Sunderland and Durham can find a local supplier.

Your Google Business Profile helps with this. It is the business listing that appears in Google Search and Maps. We keep your details, categories, services, products, opening times and updates clear, so a buyer can call, visit or reach your shop with confidence.

This local search work supports a wider wholesaler ecommerce UK strategy. We can also help you target North Shields, South Shields, Whitley Bay, Wallsend, Jarrow, Washington, Cramlington and Blyth, as well as customers across the UK.

  • Google Business Profile support
  • Local product and service pages
  • Clear delivery area information
  • Google Merchant Centre setup
  • Product listings ready for Google Shopping

More detail

More on websites for wholesale & trade sellers

The rest of what wholesale & trade sellers ask us, tidied away. Open what you need.

A general contact form is rarely enough for wholesale. You need to know what the buyer wants, how much they need, where it must go and when they need it. We build forms that collect the information required to price the job properly.

Forms can ask for product type, quantity, pack size, delivery postcode, trade account status and required date. A buyer can request a quote for a mixed order without sending a vague message that starts another round of questions.

For trade-only sales, we can structure account applications, approval steps and pricing access around your process. The right information reaches your team before you reply, helping you quote faster and protect margins.

  • Quantity and pack size fields
  • Delivery postcode and required date
  • Trade account application forms
  • Quote requests for bulk orders
  • Clear order notes for your team

Trade buyers want to know that you deliver what you promise. Reviews, product feedback and clear proof of service help them choose you over an unknown seller. This matters even more when a buyer is placing a large first order.

We make it easier to ask for a review after an order or delivery. The request can follow the right stage of your process, rather than relying on someone remembering to send it. Positive feedback can then support your website, Google Business Profile and marketing.

Useful proof includes delivery reliability, product quality, helpful advice and how you handled a problem. We help you present this in plain language, alongside accreditations, supplier relationships, case examples and clear returns information where relevant.

  • Review request follow-ups
  • Google Business Profile review support
  • Customer feedback on product pages
  • Accreditation and supplier information
  • Proof placed near buying decisions

A missed call can mean a lost account, especially when a buyer needs stock quickly. Our AI Receptionist answers every call 24/7 in your business name. It takes the caller's details, records what they need and sends you a text straight away.

It can sort urgency, ask about product requirements and collect delivery information. You can then call back with the right answer, instead of starting with, "What was this about?" It does not replace your judgement. It makes sure opportunities do not disappear while you are driving, loading stock or serving another customer.

The AI Receptionist costs £169 a month on its own. Website Care plus Receptionist costs £199 a month, saving £29. That gives you a cared-for shop and a reliable first response to calls.

  • Answers calls around the clock
  • Uses your business name
  • Collects product and delivery details
  • Sorts urgent from routine requests
  • Texts you the caller information

When you want more demand, Google Ads can put your products in front of people already searching. We manage campaigns around your products, locations, trade terms and margins. The aim is not more visits for their own sake. It is better buying opportunities.

Management costs £449 a month. This includes campaign management, bid and budget changes, ad copy testing, negative keyword management, landing page improvements and a monthly reporting call. Your ad spend is billed directly by Google and is never marked up by us.

Tracking shows which adverts and searches produced product views, quote requests, calls and completed orders. You can see more than clicks. You can understand which activity led to real sales, repeat trade and profitable product lines.

  • Campaign and budget management
  • Ad copy testing
  • Negative keyword control
  • Landing page improvements
  • Calls and orders tracked

A new shop needs regular attention after it goes live. SEO and Content costs £249 a month. We create two useful pages or articles each month, support local search, update your Google Business Profile, build trusted business listings and report on progress.

Content can answer the questions trade buyers ask before ordering. It might explain pack sizes, delivery cut-offs, product uses, account terms, buying in bulk or choosing between two grades. Helpful pages can also support product sales and reduce repetitive questions for your team.

You can add Automated Social Media for £99 a month. It plans, writes and posts to Facebook and Instagram for your approval. The Intelligent Marketing Coach costs £49 a month and turns your marketing into weekly tasks you can follow.

  • Two pages or articles each month
  • Local search support
  • Google Business Profile posts
  • Google listing building
  • Rank tracking and monthly reporting

Ecommerce Launch costs £2,495. It gives you everything needed to start selling properly online, including the core shop, products, payments, delivery and order process. It suits a focused range with a clear route to purchase.

Ecommerce Growth costs £3,995 and is the option most businesses should take. It gives you more room for trade pricing, repeat orders, stronger product journeys, marketing links and the tracking needed to grow sales. Ecommerce Pro starts from £5,995 for established sellers with complex stock, pricing, accounts or operations.

Ecommerce Care is required for every shop at £99 a month. It covers hosting, security, daily backups, software updates, monitoring, content changes and support. A shop needs more care than a brochure site because payments, stock and checkout must keep working.

If you want to start without the upfront build cost, the no upfront option is £199 a month on a 24 month term. There is no setup fee. You get a template shop built for your trade, hosting, care and the AI Receptionist included.

  • Ecommerce Launch, £2,495
  • Ecommerce Growth, £3,995
  • Ecommerce Pro, from £5,995
  • Ecommerce Care, £99 a month
  • No upfront option, £199 a month

The honest comparison

Why do some websites cost £199?

It is a fair question, and it deserves a straight answer rather than a sales pitch.

If you simply need a basic online presence, a low-cost website builder may be enough. Somewhere to point people who already know your name. If that is genuinely all you need, do that and spend the money elsewhere. We would rather tell you that than take a fee for something you will not use.

Our websites are designed for established businesses that want Google traffic to turn into calls, enquiries and customers. Copy, tracking, conversion setup and ongoing management are built in. That is a different product solving a different problem, and it is priced accordingly.

Who writes the words

A £199 builder site

You do, usually at 11pm, into a blank box.

A Look North website

We do. Copywriting for every page is included, written around the jobs you actually want.

Whether it shows up on Google

A £199 builder site

It will rank for your business name. Not much else.

A Look North website

A page for every service and every town you cover, structured so each one can rank.

What happens to an enquiry

A £199 builder site

A contact form emails you. If you miss it, you miss it.

A Look North website

Quote forms written for your trade, instant SMS and email alerts, and every enquiry stored so none are lost.

When the phone rings and you are on a job

A £199 builder site

It goes to voicemail. Most callers hang up and ring the next business.

A Look North website

Our AI receptionist answers 24/7 in your business name, takes the details and texts you straight away.

Knowing what is working

A £199 builder site

A visitor counter, if that.

A Look North website

Call tracking, conversion tracking and call attribution, so you know which clicks became real jobs.

Getting reviews

A £199 builder site

You remember to ask, sometimes.

A Look North website

Review generation set up so a request goes out after every job, with the results shown on your site.

What happens after launch

A £199 builder site

Nothing. It sits there until you cancel the subscription.

A Look North website

The Marketing Coach gives you a plan broken into weekly jobs, so the site keeps earning its keep.

Who owns it

A £199 builder site

The platform. Stop paying and it disappears.

A Look North website

You do. The code, the domain, the hosting account and the content are yours.

Speed on a phone

A £199 builder site

Template bloat, often slow, which costs you rankings and visitors.

A Look North website

Built mobile first, because that is where almost every local search happens.

When something breaks

A £199 builder site

A help centre article and a support queue.

A Look North website

Website Care at £59 a month: monitoring, backups, updates, and a person who answers.

We have a £199 a month option too. It is not the same thing.

If the upfront cost is the blocker rather than the quality, we do a no upfront option at £199 a month on a 24 month term. That is not a builder subscription. It is a real site built for your trade, with hosting, Website Care and the AI receptionist included, live in 5 working days. The difference between that and a £199 builder site is the difference between renting a van and renting a parking space.

£199 a month

24 month term, nothing upfront

Start with no upfront cost

What the difference buys

What you actually get for the difference

Not features. The things that change how much work comes in.

01

Every call answered

A missed call is a customer ringing your competitor. The AI receptionist picks up 24/7, qualifies the job and texts you. Most trades win back more than the cost of the whole website in the first few months.

02

Found for the work you want

One page cannot rank for eight services across twelve towns. We build a page for each, so you show up for the specific job someone is searching for right now.

03

Enquiries you can price

Not "how much for a bathroom?" but property type, scale, access, timing and photos. You quote accurately, first, without a site visit.

04

Proof that compounds

A review request after every job. In a year you have the review count competitors cannot catch up with, and reviews are the last thing a customer checks before calling.

05

Words written for you

Copywriting for every page is included. No blank boxes, no writing your own service descriptions at 11pm, no page that sounds like everyone else.

06

Proof of what paid off

Call tracking and conversion tracking show which clicks turned into jobs. You stop guessing which half of the marketing worked.

07

A plan for after launch

The Marketing Coach turns a strategy into weekly jobs small enough to actually finish. That is why our sites are still growing a year later.

08

You own the lot

Code, domain, hosting, content and your Google Business Profile. Nothing switches off if you leave, because nothing was rented to you.

If a basic presence is all you need, a builder is the sensible choice and we will say so. If you want the phone to ring more often, that is what we build. Get a fixed price.

FAQ

Wholesale & Trade Sellers ask us these most

Price, timescales and ownership, answered for a wholesaler.

Ecommerce Launch costs £2,495. Ecommerce Growth costs £3,995 and suits most businesses that want to grow online sales. Ecommerce Pro starts from £5,995 for established sellers with more complex products, stock, pricing or operations. All prices exclude VAT. Build payments are 50% on signature and 50% on launch. Ecommerce Care is required at £99 a month for every shop.
The timescale depends on your product range, content, pricing rules and stock systems. A focused shop can move faster than a large catalogue with trade accounts and complex delivery. We agree the scope before work starts, then give you a clear launch plan. Delays often come from missing product details, images or delivery rules, so we help organise those early.
An online shop needs more attention than a standard brochure website. Payments, stock, checkout software and delivery tools all need to keep working together. Ecommerce Care includes hosting, security, daily backups, software updates, uptime monitoring, security monitoring, up to 30 minutes of content changes each month and email support. It is required for every ecommerce client.
Yes. We can plan approved trade accounts, restricted pricing, minimum order values and different buying routes around your process. The right setup depends on how you currently approve accounts, set prices and manage credit. We will map that before building. If some customers buy on account while others pay online, the shop can support those different journeys.
Yes. We can build bulk order and quote forms that ask for product, quantity, pack size, delivery postcode, required date and account details. This gives your team useful information before replying. Some products may suit direct checkout, while larger or mixed orders may need a quote. The website can support both routes without forcing every buyer through one process.
We will review your current stock and order process before recommending the right setup. A shop can manage stock directly, or connect with suitable systems where the required connection is available. The level of work depends on your software and data. Ecommerce Pro is designed for businesses with greater operational complexity, so we can scope more involved requirements properly.
Yes, your own shop does not stop you using marketplaces. It gives you another sales channel that you control. Marketplaces can help people discover products, while your own website keeps the customer relationship and supports repeat buying. We can discuss product feeds, stock handling and the practical limits of each channel before deciding how they should work together.
Yes. We are familiar with Stripe and PayPal and can set up the payment route around your business needs. You remain responsible for opening and verifying your payment accounts. We make sure the checkout presents payment, delivery and order information clearly. We can also discuss trade buyers who need an account, invoice or quote rather than immediate card payment.
The AI Receptionist answers every call 24/7 in your business name. It takes the caller's details, asks what they need, sorts urgency and texts you the information immediately. It is useful when you are driving, picking orders, loading stock or already on another call. It costs £169 a month, or £199 a month with Website Care, saving £29.
Google Ads Management costs £449 a month. It includes campaign management, bid and budget optimisation, ad copy testing, negative keyword management, landing page improvements and a monthly reporting call. Your advertising budget is billed separately by Google and goes directly to Google. We never mark it up. Tracking shows which clicks became calls, enquiries and orders.
Yes. We can prepare your products for Google Merchant Centre, which is the Google service that holds your product information for Shopping listings. Product names, prices, stock details, delivery information and policies need to be clear. We also support local search and your Google Business Profile, helping nearby trade buyers find your shop and contact you.
Yes, where the buyer has provided an email address and the setup supports it. Abandoned basket recovery reminds people about products they added but did not buy. The message can point them back to checkout or explain the next step. It will not recover every lost order, but it gives interested buyers another chance without your team chasing each one manually.
The website is built for your business, and you own your business content, products and customer data. Payment providers process payments under their own terms. We need suitable access to maintain the shop and provide support, but we do not position your website as a marketplace account that you can lose when another platform changes its rules.
The no upfront option costs £199 a month over a 24 month term. There is no setup fee. It includes a template shop built for your trade, hosting, Ecommerce Care and the AI Receptionist. It is designed for businesses that want to start now without paying the full build cost upfront. Monthly billing starts at launch, and all prices exclude VAT.
Build payments are 50% on signature and 50% on launch. Monthly billing starts when the shop launches. Monthly modules have a 12 month minimum term, then continue monthly thereafter. The no upfront option has a 24 month term because it spreads the website cost across the agreement. Modules can be added later, so you can increase support as your sales grow.
