Dear Customer,
we are professional on-line store builder with lots of successful offshore delivery experience,
please have a look in our portfolio for details
Specifically in your case, I know you are looking for a starting point, probably will be start with choosing template,
Our code-base is pure in-house developed, which bring you more performance, security and highly customizability.
we are very new to freelancer so you pay us till you happy with the result, also we always charge the minimum money for building our profiles, in this way we think we can start building trust between each other.
I would suggest 3 phases for the development,
first phase will be UI implementation, for freelancer project we prefer this extreme way, UI first and then back-end, since the communication is over the internet, UI first stage will clarify lots of requirement and avoid big surprise at the end. (10 days, free of charge)
second phase will be function implementation. which will be a tightly working together process to make sure the website fit your needs.(10 days, )
third phase will be after-delivery warranty support. which is after your website go-live.
