At various stages of your e-commerce journey, you might encounter uncertainties about the best path forward.
Particularly for small businesses with limited in-house digital expertise, seeking guidance becomes crucial but, when asking to a potential partner or supplier, there is often a lingering fear of being “sold” a biased answer.
This is where an e-commerce consultation steps in to provide unbiased insights and recommendations.
An e-commerce consultation with Netsu offers assistance with a wide range of e-commerce topics, from strategies and platforms to partner selection and technology evaluation.
Planning an e-commerce project when there is not in-house specialist expertise poses a significant risk.
Consulting with an independent e-commerce expert helps mitigate the risk of investing in unsuitable technologies or partnering with incompatible vendors.

It’s crucial to understand what will not be included in a consultation. Please be aware that anything that is not explicitly included must be considered as excluded.

We typically work with small businesses that are already established and trading offline.
Our ideal client might be at the beginning of their e-commerce adventure or be already selling online.
B2B companies, often family-owned, are the ones we have worked with the most. Some of them also operated a B2C website/channel.
In terms of working style, at Netsu, we embrace an informal, hands-on approach.
We prioritize practical solutions over theoretical or “jargon-rich” discussions, and if anyone makes a mistake we focus on finding a solution rather than a culprit.
We strive to be part of your team.
We value open and friendly communication, avoiding politics or grandstanding, to foster a collaborative environment focused on achieving results.
At Netsu, we are platform-agnostic.
We are more experienced in Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce, but we have helped clients with WordPress / WooCommerce and Shopify as well.
As we tent to work on the smaller end of the SMB scale, we typically don’t work with entry-level platforms like Wix or with complex enterprise solutions.
Netsu operates as a fully remote company, with team members located in the UK (Edinburgh), Italy (Milan), and Poland (Poznan).
While we value occasional in-person meetings, we understand the importance of minimizing travel costs.
If circumstances permit or if you’re willing to cover travel expenses, we’re open to arranging in-person meetings.
In terms of communication, we’re flexible and adaptable to your existing communication tools.
Typically, we use project management platforms such as Jira or Monday.com for task coordination and tracking. While instant messaging tools like Slack are useful for quick communication, we find that they’re not always sufficient for managing complex projects.
Additionally, we’ll schedule regular catch-up calls to ensure that we’re aligned and progressing smoothly with your project.
