From a $99 Store Build to House of Cart
Eight years ago, the first Shopify store I built cost $99.
At the time, it felt like a big project.
The goal was simple: help someone get their idea online.
No CRO frameworks.
No playbooks.
No fancy growth strategies.
Just a laptop, a lot of trial and error, and a genuine excitement for helping someone launch their business.
Looking back now, that little $99 build turned out to be the start of something much bigger.
Today, for our 8th anniversary, we thought it would be a great idea to take a quick trip down memory lane.







If you’re somewhere between your first build and what’s next, we’d love to help you get there.

Here’s to eight years of House of Cart, and to the founders building something brave right now.
With love,
