Minimum Theme and eCommerce

[Linda]

Hello, I wrote a very simple website using the Minimum Theme. Now I need a store integrated into my website. It will be a low volume store but I need to have a presence and I would probably get occasional sales. I'd probably should take both credit cards and other forms of payment such as pay pal. What is the easiest way to get this accomplished?

1. If I do it myself? I'd rather use what I already created as a base and just add a shopping page. I managed to create the website myself but I'm not programming every day - I'm actually hoping to focus on making jewelry.

2. What would the cost be to have someone else do it / help me? And would that be a Studio Press employee or someone or a unaffiliated consultant. I would maintain it once it's set up?

Thanks,
Linda

1. Take a look at WooCommerce, and the Genesis Connect for WooCommerce plugin. You can set up your own shopping site on your existing site by adding these two plugins.

2. It depends on the complexity of what you are wanting to do; do you just want someone to set up the shop, without products (and you'll add them in), or do you want someone to do it all for you. It's up to you who you hire - there are a number of people who contribute to this board who do this kind of work. You can also post on Twitter, using the #GenesisWP hashtag. More than likely, it will NOT be a StudioPress employee.
