Response .? Clothing Co. is a simple idea… a T-Shirt Dropshipping Website. Design T-shirts using third party software and use a drop-shipping provider to print and deliver these T-shirts as and when they are sold. The design of this website is far from simple. When software from a number of different providers is required, and they all have to work with each other, things are never simple. But the results, I think speak for themselves; A clean easy to navigate website for the user, and a sales funnel that runs itself while the business owner sleeps.
Response .? is an online T-shirt retailer based in Roscommon Ireland. They’re speciality is T-shirts featuring slogans in the Irish language. They also feature music based clothing lines, especially in the rock genre. When I started working with them, to develop the online store, the business was little more than a concept; as the website grew the idea grew with it.
“We needed 3 things; A high impact, user friendly website. Quick turnaround, 6 weeks. A cost effective budget and timescale. We got all of this and more. Adam was more like a member of staff. He understood what we were looking to do, he understood financial constraints and he delivered more than we expected, on time and on budget. I would recommend him to everyone, and I have done. Thanks again Adam we’ll be working together again in the future I’m sure.”
Everything about this website is minimalist, having said that, the homepage header features the most rich content of the entire site. A large image slider featuring highlights from around the website and T-shirt categories. This feature can be updated by the client in the future to display sale items, top sellers or anything that needs extra promotion.
The star of the show at Response .? Clothing Co. is the T-shirts, most notably their Irish language range. The product images are larger than normal to really show off the designs. A T-Shirt Dropshipping Website is often a very busy places, a lot of information packed into a small space. We created a spacious, light environment for Response .?
Most T-Shirt Dropshipping Websites start out life as an Excel spreadsheet, a list of products and all the information about them. This site was very different. The client creates T-shirt designs on a third party platform, these designs are synced with WordPress as products. If this is done right there is no extra work for the client, all the product information; sizes, colours, meta data etc. is generated automatically.
Clean and simple, that was the ethos throughout the whole design process and the payment pages are exactly that. Nothing to distract customers from the checkout, other than to tell them that "Shipping is always free at Response .? Clothing Co." These pages are often pretty complicated, I want to make the text bold and easy to understand, the selling has already been done on previous pages.
The client wanted to include shipping in the cost price, I really like that idea, as well as a bulk buy discount. All this has to happen in the background, free shipping and any relevant discount applied at the checkout. Two forms of payment are offered; PayPal and Stripe card processing these both had to be set up and connected to bank accounts.
The primary page on this, and every T-shirt Dropping website, is the single product page. It's where you really sell your product to your customers. I build these pages as templates, ie. format them once, and then the page is served, with all the information changed, every time a product is viewed. This takes all the work out of adding new products in the future.
If you’re a small business owner, then you know that having a website is essential in today’s world. Not only does it give your customers another way to find out about your business, but it also allows you to reach a larger audience than you would be able to if you were only relying on word-of-mouth advertising. However, just because everyone has a website these days doesn’t mean that yours will be successful. It takes careful planning and execution to create a small business website that will help grow your company.

For a number of years now (and this is only set to continue) two words have come to the forefront of website design; speed and responsiveness. The time it takes for your website to load, especially on mobile because Google measures this first, is vitally important. The search engines measure this time and it influences your website’s rankings. Keeping your customers waiting is bad for business, and not just in your store.
Creating a website that responds to the device it’s being viewed on used to be an optional extra, something that was nice to have but not essential. However, with more and more people using their phones and tablets to access the internet, having a responsive website has become a must. Responsive websites automatically adjust their layout and design depending on the size of the screen they are being displayed on, making them perfect for all devices.
If you want your business to stay ahead of the curve, then you need to make sure your website is responsive. At FutureProof Digital we can help you create a website that looks great no matter what device it’s being viewed on.
As of this year WordPress powers 43.3% of all websites on the internet, and 300 of the top 1000 sites. But that’s not why we use it, we use it because of you. WordPress web design is faster and better than any other platform; Wix, SquareSpace or Shopify are not in the same bracket. Faster means efficiency and value for money. Every client asks, “can I easily update the website myself ?” and the answer, most of the time is YES !! Some websites require a little training but in most cases a WordPress website is as easy to run as a Facebook page.
We are based in Roscommon, so naturally much of our work is here, and we are really proud of that. We like to meet clients in person or visit their business. This personal contact gives your site the design edge it needs. We get a real feel for the needs of the business before we begin.
We also complete contracts at a national and international level. We work with charities, The Irish heart Foundation for example, leading politicians and parties, as well global tour providers. We have fun with every one of our clients, on every website, large or small.
FutureProof Digital takes care of every aspect of the web design process; starting with your domain name. We set everything up, including your SSL security cert. This is included as part of every contract for the first year at no extra cost.
The same goes for web hosting. We set everything up for you, and provide a free year of hosting with every website. At the end of year 1 we transfer your site to your dedicated hosting plan free of charge, just a few clicks.
Clean and simple for the user/a complex combination of software applications and integrations. This was the brief. Drop-shipping is an interesting business model. It saves an enormous amount of money in start up costs because you don’t have to buy large quantities of stock. If you have product ideas this is an excellent way to experiment, with the drop-shipping provider taking care of all the complicated aspects of shipping, packing, fulfilment etc. In the long term, if you have successful products, taking on these jobs yourself is a must. You are paying higher costs in the short term for convenience.
