E-commerce Site Development for small brand

I am looking for a freelancer to create a simple, beautiful and mobile-friendly e-commerce website for my small brand, Namaste. Namaste is a Spanish brand selling products that we personally select in India, such as bags, pouches, pareos, jackets, home accessories and other unique pieces. At the moment, I am using a WhatsApp Business catalogue to sell our products, but I do not feel it is working well for the brand. It is not as easy to browse as I would like and, in my opinion, it does not give customers the professional shopping experience I want for Namaste. For this reason, I would like to create a proper website that looks professional and trustworthy, while still keeping the purchasing process simple. At this stage, I do NOT need an online payment gateway. The website should allow customers to: * Browse products by category * See product photos, descriptions, prices and availability * Add products to a cart * Click “Order via WhatsApp” at checkout * Automatically send the selected products and order details to our WhatsApp The website should be especially optimized for mobile, as most of our customers will arrive directly from Instagram. I am currently leaning towards Shopify because I want something simple and intuitive that I can manage myself, although I am open to recommendations if you think another platform would be more suitable. One of the MOST important requirements for me is that, once the website is finished, I need to be able to continue managing it myself. I do not want to depend on a developer every time I need to add a product, change a price, update stock, change a photo, create a new category or edit some text. Therefore, I would need a proper handover at the end of the project, including a call, video tutorial or simple guide showing me how to manage the website independently. I would also need: * Clean, modern and professional design * Instagram link/integration * WhatsApp integration * Basic SEO setup * Domain connection * SSL * Easy product and stock management * Possibility to add online payments in the future * Clear handover/training so I can manage the website myself after delivery We already have our logo, product photos, prices and product descriptions. The style should feel colourful, warm, artisanal and modern, inspired by India but not overly traditional. Please include in your proposal: * Total project price * Estimated delivery time * Platform you recommend * Examples of similar e-commerce websites you have created * Any recurring monthly/yearly costs * What kind of training or handover you will provide after delivery This is a small new brand, so I am looking for a simple and cost-effective solution rather than a complex e-commerce website. However, it is very important that the website looks professional and can grow with the brand in the future.
