Fuel Made

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the e-commerce manager of Sunday Afternoons, and I’m in charge of all tech installations within the company. We manufacture and sell outdoor apparel, specifically hats.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Fuel Made?

We had an e-commerce software and we were transitioning it from a custom-built into a Shopify build. As a result, we hired Fuel Made to help with our Shopify build and assist us in working with other third parties to integrate other software that we have.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Fuel Made enabled us to maintain our current design aesthetic on our Shopify-themed platform. In order to achieve the platform’s merchandising capabilities and the client’s requested customizations, many integrations were implemented by the team.

We’re still collaborating on different things within the Shopify space and how it integrates with our company, but some of their ongoing support involves adding more customizations. They’re also building a B2B website, which started this month.

What is the team composition?

Our primary point of contact is their project manager, but whenever we have technical issues to deal with, we can always reach their developer.

How did you come to work with Fuel Made?

I found them through a company that had used them in the past. When they were recommended to me, I already talked to a number of companies. Fuel Made’s founder really sold their company to me, which led me to work with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve probably spent close to $100,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began collaborating together in October 2020, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

They’ve always been able to accomplish all the things they’ve promised. We also appreciate their ability to explain technical terms into layman’s terms.

How did Fuel Made perform from a project management standpoint?

They have a structured process, which allows them to gather all of the project’s requirements before we sign anything. On top of that, they complete our projects in a timely manner while staying on budget. They’re very responsive, and they communicate clearly and effectively. We use email, phone calls, and Zoom meetings to keep in touch with each other.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re extremely transparent and open. If they think something isn’t feasible, they let us know, unlike other developers who’ll just say yes to our requests.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No. I’m completely satisfied with their performance and how they fit into our overall business.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that you’re prepared for your project and ready for any additional work that you need to do to make the project successful.
