# Actuate Digital > Specialist ecommerce agency in Manchester, working UK-wide. We rebuild and optimise stores on Shopify, Shopify Plus, Magento 2, Adobe Commerce and Hyvä. Our argument is that site speed and frontend architecture are phase one of conversion rate optimisation, not housekeeping to get out of the way before it starts. Most agencies treat speed as maintenance. We treat it as the first conversion win, and the numbers below are what that gets: we rebuilt Helmet City's frontend on Hyvä, took four seconds off the load time, and conversion went up 16% before a single test had run. We work with growing ecommerce brands from around £2m online and upwards, with no upper limit. We work best where someone owns the ecommerce number, whether that's an ecommerce manager, an ecommerce director or a head of digital. Strongest sectors: home and garden, lifestyle, sports and fitness, fashion, and health and beauty. ## Pricing - NNP Workshop, from £3,200. A prioritised ecommerce audit delivered as a video walkthrough rather than a document. If you go on to work with us, 50% comes off the project. - NNP Audit, from £8,800. A full deep-dive across UX, performance, CRO, tech stack, competitor benchmarking and commercial strategy, run as structured sessions with your stakeholders. - Retained CRO and support are quoted per engagement. Fortnightly calls, a full CRO audit every quarter, and a plan for the quarter ahead. ## Results - [Reliant](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/reliant/), Magento 2 Hyvä rebuild: turnover up 141%, conversion up 78%, AOV up 17%. - [Robinsons of Bawtry](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/robinsons-of-bawtry/), Aero Commerce to Shopify with CRO: revenue up 551%, conversion up 109%, visitors up 298%. - [The Skirting Board Shop](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/the-skirting-board-shop/), Hyvä rebuild plus a year of retained CRO: conversion up 51%, new visitors up 670%. - [Helmet City](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/helmet-city/), Magento 2 Hyvä rebuild plus retained CRO: conversion up 16%, engagement up 21%, four seconds off load time, then a further 9% on the retainer. - [Be My Bear](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/be-my-bear/), CS-Cart to Magento 2: conversion up 113%, AOV up 5%. - [AutoID](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/autoid/), retained CRO on Shopify Plus: conversion up 9.92%, AOV up 6%, 38% faster. - [Willow & Hall](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/willow-hall/), Magento 1 to Magento 2 on Hyvä: conversion up 3.6%, sales up 15%, 80% faster. - [Revitalash](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/revitalash/), Shopify Plus UK launch with subscriptions: sales up 15%, 80% faster. - [The Shirt Company](https://www.actuate.agency/case-studies/the-shirt-company/), migration to Magento 2 with persona-led redesign: conversion up 40%, sales up 30%. - [All case studies](https://www.actuate.agency/our-work/) ## Services - [Services overview](https://www.actuate.agency/services/) - [Conversion rate optimisation](https://www.actuate.agency/services/cro/) - [NNP Workshop, our paid audit](https://www.actuate.agency/services/nnp-success-workshop/) - [Free CRO review, self-serve, no signup](https://www.actuate.agency/cro-audit/) - [Ecommerce strategy](https://www.actuate.agency/services/ecommerce-strategy/) - [UX and UI design](https://www.actuate.agency/services/ux-ui-design/) - [Web development](https://www.actuate.agency/services/web-development/) - [Maintenance and support](https://www.actuate.agency/services/maintenance-support/) - [How we work](https://www.actuate.agency/about-us/our-process/) ## Platforms - [Shopify](https://www.actuate.agency/services/shopify/) - [Shopify Plus](https://www.actuate.agency/services/shopify/shopify-plus/) - [Shopify migration](https://www.actuate.agency/services/shopify/migration/) - [Magento and Adobe Commerce](https://www.actuate.agency/services/adobe-commerce-magento/) - [Magento Open Source](https://www.actuate.agency/services/magento-open-source/) - [Magento 2 migration](https://www.actuate.agency/services/magento-open-source/migration/) - [Adobe Commerce](https://www.actuate.agency/services/adobe-commerce-magento/adobe-commerce/) - [Adobe Commerce B2B](https://www.actuate.agency/services/adobe-commerce-magento/b2b/) - [Hyvä](https://www.actuate.agency/services/hyva/) ## Sectors - [Home and garden](https://www.actuate.agency/sectors/home-garden-ecommerce-agency/) - [Lifestyle](https://www.actuate.agency/sectors/lifestyle-ecommerce-agency/) - [Sports and fitness](https://www.actuate.agency/sectors/sports-fitness-ecommerce-agency/) - [Fashion](https://www.actuate.agency/sectors/fashion-ecommerce-agency/) - [Health and beauty](https://www.actuate.agency/sectors/health-beauty-ecommerce-agency/) ## Company - [About Actuate](https://www.actuate.agency/about-us/) - [Contact and booking](https://www.actuate.agency/get-in-touch/) - [News and insights](https://www.actuate.agency/news-insights/) - [Careers](https://www.actuate.agency/careers/) Based in Manchester city centre, five minutes from Piccadilly, at 3b Tariff Street, Manchester M1 2FF.
