# A shop window for what you make

Show your products with photos and prices, say where else to buy them, and take order requests by form. You confirm each order and take payment your usual way.

Page: https://pagelemon.com/use-cases/maker-orders · For makers and small shops · All use cases: https://pagelemon.com/use-cases/

- Products and prices
- Order requests by email
- No shop fees to set up

## This is for you if you say

- "I make candles, pottery, prints or jewellery in small batches."
- "I sell at markets and to people who message me."
- "I want a proper shop window without paying for a full online shop."

## The problem

A full online shop is a lot to set up for a few dozen pieces, and selling only by message means the same questions about price and stock every day.

Your site shows what you have and what it costs. People send an order request with what they want, and you reply to confirm, with a payment link you already have if you use one.

## How it goes

The example on the page: the Wick template (https://pagelemon.com/templates/#wick; live example https://pagelemon.com/tp/Wick).

1. You paste one line into your AI chat: `Build with PageLemon.com: a site for my pottery, with pieces for sale, prices and an order request form`. Your AI asks for your details.
2. Your AI builds these pages:
   - **Shop**: Each product with photos, a price and whether it’s in stock.
   - **Order request**: What they want, how many, and collection or post.
   - **Stockists**: The shops and markets where you sell.
   - **About**: How and where you make it.
3. It's live at wick-candles.pagelemon.dev/shop, and you run it from the chat. Page Lemon runs: Order request form, Product photos, Products as a list, Your own domain.

## Start with one line

Paste one of these into your AI chat. Your AI asks for your details, builds the site and puts it online at a free address.

- `Deploy on PageLemon.com`: The quickest start: your AI asks what the site is for, picks a design and puts it online.
- `Build with PageLemon.com: a site for my pottery, with pieces for sale, prices and an order request form`: Your AI builds the shop window and the form, and sends a test request.
- `Use template pagelemon.com/tp/Wick for my candle shop. List my scents with prices and add an order request form`: Starts from the Wick template: label print, amber glass, a shelf of products.

## Once it's live, ask your AI

- `The fig candle is sold out until March`: The product says sold out, with the date it’s back.
- `We’re at Spitalfields market on Saturday. Put it on the home page`: A short notice goes on the home page and the stockists page.
- `Add these 6 new mugs, I’ll upload the photos`: Your AI gives you an upload link, then adds the mugs with the prices you give.

## What it costs

Paid plan. The order request form, your own domain and room for product photos need a paid plan. Not for you? Full refund within 14 days, no questions asked. Pricing: https://pagelemon.com/pricing

- **Product photos** (https://pagelemon.com/features#f-upload): Upload photos with a link from your AI.
- **Products as a list** (https://pagelemon.com/features/lists): Sold out, back in stock, new price: one sentence each, on the site in seconds.

## Questions

**Can people pay by card on the site?**
Yes, on paid plans: add buy buttons with your own Stripe Payment Links. The money goes straight to your Stripe account. See [Payments](https://pagelemon.com/features/payments).

**Does it track stock?**
Not automatically. Tell your AI when something sells out or comes back, and the page changes.

**Can I add postage prices?**
Yes, as text on the product or ordering page, changed by asking.

**Can I take wholesale enquiries?**
Yes: a second form for shops, with its own questions.
