Business & Store Setup
Company formation, EIN and bank setup, seller account registration, identity verification, and category approvals. The paperwork that stops most people before they start.

Carts Run Better With Cartsage
You do not need e-commerce experience. Cartsage builds, launches, and manages your online store through a professionally managed operational system — store setup, product research, listings, order processing, customer support, and fulfilment coordination. We handle the operational side and guide you through the decisions that stay with you.

You should not have to become an expert in seven things at once
Selling online properly means company formation, supplier negotiation, copywriting, photography, paid advertising, logistics, and marketplace policy. Most people trying to learn all of it quit somewhere around the third one. We already know them, so you do not have to.
Product Research & Sourcing
We pick products on demand data and margin, not hunches, then vet the suppliers, order samples, and model the landed cost before you spend anything.

Listings & Creative
Keyword-researched copy, enhanced brand content, product photography, infographics, and video — the difference between a page people scroll past and one they buy from.

Advertising & PPC
A new listing sells nothing without traffic. We run sponsored product, brand, and display campaigns to a target advertising cost of sale, managed daily, with reporting you can actually read.

Fulfilment
Your stock goes to our logistics partner or into the marketplace's own fulfilment network. Either way it gets received, prepped, stored, and shipped without a box ever reaching your house.

You will never
touch a box
The part that puts people off starting is usually the physical part. Where does the stock go? Who packs it? What happens when someone wants a refund?
You do not deal with any of it. We work with an established third-party logistics partner, and your inventory ships from their facility. We manage the relationship, the inbound shipments, and the restock schedule — you never have to find a warehouse, negotiate a rate card, or sign a separate contract.
- Nothing ships to your homeInventory goes from the supplier straight to the warehouse or the marketplace's fulfilment centre. It never passes through your hands.
- One relationship, not threeYou deal with us. We deal with the supplier, the freight forwarder, and the warehouse.
- Restocks planned aheadWe forecast on sales velocity so you do not stock out in Q4 or pay storage on stock that is not moving.
- Returns handledRefunds, replacements, and returned-stock inspection are handled by the team as part of the service.
Handled for you
- Receiving and inspection of every inbound shipment
- Prep, labelling, poly-bagging, and bundling to marketplace spec
- Storage, with stock levels visible in your monthly report
- Pick, pack, and dispatch on every order
- Returns processing and stock reinspection
- Inbound shipment planning and restock forecasting
Fulfilment is carried out by our third-party logistics partner. We manage that relationship on your behalf — you sign one agreement, with us.
Inside the stores we manage
The dashboards below are taken directly from live stores under our management. They show what those particular stores did over the periods stated. They are not typical, not a projection, and not a guarantee — results vary considerably between stores, and past performance is not an indication of future results.

I had never sold anything online in my life. I assumed I would have to learn the seller dashboard eventually, and honestly I never did. They set it up, I approve the products, and that is the job.
Dana MoreauOwner, Northline Goods
★★★★★
I had watched enough tutorials to know I would get it wrong on my own. The company formation and account verification alone would have taken me months of guessing.
Sam ReyesOwner, Caddis Outdoor
★★★★★
What convinced me was that they talked me out of two products before I had spent a penny. Nobody trying to take my money that fast would have done that.

Questions we get a lot
Straight answers on how Cartsage works, what stays with you, and what it costs to run a store beyond our fee.
What is Cartsage?
Cartsage is a done-for-you e-commerce service. We help clients build, launch, and manage online stores with a professionally managed operational system.
How does Cartsage work?
Our team assists with the setup and ongoing management of your e-commerce business, including store operations, product research, order management, customer support, and other day-to-day processes depending on your selected service.
Which e-commerce platforms do you work with?
We work with major online marketplaces and e-commerce platforms. Platform availability and eligibility may vary depending on the client and business.
Do I need e-commerce experience?
No. Our team handles the operational side of the business and guides you through the parts that require your involvement.
Is income or profit guaranteed?
No. E-commerce involves business and financial risk, and Cartsage does not guarantee specific revenue, profits, or returns. Results vary based on numerous factors.
How involved do I need to be?
We aim to minimize the amount of day-to-day operational work required from clients, but this is not a completely passive investment. Certain decisions, approvals, financial obligations, and account responsibilities remain with the client.
How long does it take to get started?
Timelines vary depending on the platform, account approvals, business setup, and individual circumstances. We provide clients with an expected onboarding timeline after reviewing their situation.
Who owns the e-commerce business and accounts?
The ownership structure and account responsibilities are explained during onboarding and documented in the client's agreement.
What does Cartsage manage?
Depending on the service package, our team may assist with store setup, product research, listings, order processing, customer support, inventory coordination, and ongoing store management.
Are there additional costs besides the Cartsage service fee?
There may be additional operating expenses associated with running an e-commerce business, such as inventory, marketplace fees, software, advertising, fulfillment, shipping, and other third-party expenses. These are discussed before onboarding.
Can I see results from previous stores?
Where appropriate, we can discuss examples of our experience and operating approach. Past performance should not be considered a guarantee of future results.
How do I get started?
Book a consultation with our team. We'll discuss your goals, explain our process and costs, and determine whether Cartsage is a good fit.
