Online Shop Development for Bacău Merchants
In Bacău, a great many purchases are not made by the person who will use them. The daughter in Italy chooses for her parents, the son in England pays for the fridge, and at home someone is left simply to open the door to the courier. That sale never closes at the counter: it closes in a conversation held between two countries, in the evening, over the phone.
An online shop is the only place where that conversation can actually reach an end. It has a page with photos and a price, it takes a card issued in any country, and it accepts a delivery address different from the payer's. MPO Web Studio builds online shops for merchants in Bacău who already sell well in town and lose precisely the orders that come from far away.

- 3You pay only if you love it
The purchase is decided between Bacău and another country
In a town many have left to work abroad, part of the money entering local trade comes from outside it. Whoever pays doesn't see the item, and whoever receives it didn't choose it. Over messages that transaction gets stuck: exchange rates, transfers, photos sent one at a time, promises to bring it tomorrow. In an online shop it is an ordinary order, finished in three minutes. We set up card payment that works as easily from Turin as from Bacău, a delivery address kept separate from the payer's, an e-mail confirmation for both of them, and a clearly displayed price so nobody has to ask twice. For a merchant here it isn't an extra feature, it is a slice of the market currently out of reach.
What has to be written on the page of a product bought for someone else
Anyone buying for their parents, or for a house they don't live in, has different questions from the customer at the counter. They want exact measurements, what is in the box, whether it needs assembling, who carries it upstairs, what happens if it doesn't fit. None of that shows in a photo posted on a social network. So we write product pages as a set of answers: dimensions, warranty, delivery time, return conditions, and a phone number answered by someone in the shop. The better the page answers, the fewer messages you get and the more orders.
The demo is a link — you send it to whoever really decides
It is rarely one person who decides. In a family business the last word belongs to a spouse, a partner, or the child who moved away and is better with anything online anyway. So we hand you the demo as a link, not as a presentation performed in front of you: you forward it on WhatsApp, the other person looks at their own pace, you open it together when you are both free, and only then do you tell us yes or no. We ask no money for you to see it and set no deadline for the answer. We work online only, out of Cluj-Napoca; one round of changes is included, and the shop is usually ready a few days after your approval.
Frequently asked questions
I want to send the link to a single product on WhatsApp, not to the whole shop. Is that possible?+
Yes, every product has its own address. You send the link and whoever opens it sees exactly that model, with the price, the photos and the order button, without hunting through the site. It is the simplest answer to someone asking whether you carry such a thing, especially if they are thousands of kilometres away.
My products have no proper names; I know them by how they look. How do they get onto the site?+
We name them together, starting from how people search for them rather than from the code on the invoice. You give us the list and the photos, we group them into categories and write the names the way a buyer would type them into Google. It is a few hours of work, done once.
Some of my goods are ordered in, not kept in stock. How do I list those?+
We list them as made to order, together with the time they take to arrive. The customer can still order, but knows from the start that there is a wait of a few days. That beats hiding them: plenty of people accept the wait when they are told honestly up front.
I have to discuss the expense with my family. Will you give me the figure in writing, so I can show it?+
Yes, you get the figure in writing, with what it includes and what it doesn't, before anything starts. It is a message you can pass on without translating anything yourself, and if whoever reads it comes back with a question, we answer it directly.
