I am seeking a qualified and experienced web designer with strong UX/UI skills to create a B2B ecommerce website built on the Bigcommerce platform. Being that the site will be built on the BigCommerce platform, much of the required functionality will be native to the platform. Your primary task will be to create / configure a means of Auto Ordering multiple orders.
Additionally, you will also be tasked in finding a suitable and related theme that would fit in nicely with this niche site, and will have all the required elements that will be needed in the design and layout of the site. The Most importantly, the theme should not be heavily customized (or should be carefully customized), so as not to impede on, or affect the site load time. The site should look less like an ecommerce site and more like a B2B marketplace, similar to sites like Doba, Oberlo, Salehoo and Spocket. You can use those sites for inspiration for certain design elements, though the site should not be designed as a carbon copy of the above listed sites.
The typical customer / user on this planned site who will be placing orders will be business customers / dropshippers, who may be buying in bulk. As such, the design, look and feel of the site will need to reflect this. In a typical B2C ecommerce site, the product page will often highlight the % off of MSRP that the customer will be saving. In this case, though, being that its a B2B site, the typical product page will need to be display the $ amount of potential profit that the reseller can make on any given product. This will be calculated based on the selling price of the store and the relative MSRP price that each product will have.
One important note: I would like to use existing 3rd party APIs and / or existing 3rd party services to facilitate all the functionalities needed for this project.
A few key points about the design:
* One of the essential and critical functions that the site will need to have, is the ability for users to easily sync products from Bigcommerce to their store, as well as for them to auto-send back orders back to BigCommerce, after the order is paid for. It would be pointless for users to manually copy and paste product details from BigCommerce to their site, as well as copy + paste order details back in their BigCommerce user account, once they get it. This process would need to be automated and should be widely supported across major cart options, such as Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, Woocommerce, etc. This can be either via a custom app or an existing 3rd party paid subscription service, which can facilitate this.
* I already have a logo designed for the site. Once you are selected, I will send you the logo, so that you can design the look, feel, color schemes, etc, to match the logo.
* Being that this site will be built on BigCommerce, I intend on making use of BigCommerces Customer Group feature. This means that customers to the site will be segmented into different groups, with each group having a different price structure. Some groups will be assigned large discounts relative to other groups, etc. As such, the product page should display the MSRP price, but not the selling price. A customer to the site will need to log in to view the selling price of the product.
* Because this will be a B2B ecommerce site, customers will need to first create a user account to login in order to view prices. Unlike traditional B2C ecommerce sites, which often times dont require anything more than a name and email address to create a user account, customers to this site will be required to provide pertinent account information, such as name, business name, address, Tax ID / EIN, phone number, etc.
* BigCommerce provides the ability to customize transactional emails on the site, such as when a new account is created, password is reset, order is placed, etc
You will need to ensure that these transactional emails retain the same look and feel of the rest of the site.
Please dont hesitate to contact me if you require additional clarification on any of the above points. To be considered for this, you will also need to provide links to relevant past work done, to indicate that you have an understanding of the nature of this project.
