From Philip

My mission is to open source eCommerce. I am a WordPress and WooCommerce expert and technologist that aims to change the way online retail works. I empower small-to-medium sized businesses by providing them with the tools they need to be successful in eCommerce; I do this without impeding on our partners' ability to maintain their own identity.

My model uses two different strategies:

First, I create custom tools that solve needs specific to your business. Secondly, I carefully select strategic partnerships and integrations that align with your initiatives; I also fine tune systems that have already been put in place.
