Shopskon
A Pakistani lifestyle store selling perfume and attar online, with cash on delivery and WhatsApp ordering. Beauty and fashion are in preview.
Status: Trading at shopskon.com. Fragrance is live; Beauty and Fashion are “coming soon” previews.
Overview
The opportunity
The problem
Buying fragrance online in Pakistan usually means a social-media page and a phone call. Shoppers cannot browse sizes and prices clearly, and a small seller cannot afford the agency, plug-ins and subscriptions a conventional store needs.
Our answer
A fully static storefront generated from a single product source, so the website, the Google and Meta product feeds, share images and the sitemap can never drift apart. Orders are captured to a Google Sheet and confirmed on WhatsApp, with cash on delivery.
Who it serves
- Shoppers in Pakistan looking for perfume and attar
- Customers who prefer to pay cash on delivery or order through WhatsApp
- Gift buyers choosing scents by occasion and season
Its place in Trasportos
Our commerce line: where we prove that a small catalogue business can run on automated, tested systems instead of subscriptions.
What makes it distinct
02
Two ways to order
A cash-on-delivery checkout that writes to the orders sheet, and “Order on WhatsApp”, which opens a pre-filled message with items, sizes and total.
03
Discoverable by design
Structured data on every page, a product feed read daily by Google Merchant Center and another by the Meta catalogue, plus season and occasion guides written for search.
04
An owner’s control room
The Shopskon Hub, a local dashboard, edits prices, stock and photos, publishes the site package, reports weekly from Analytics, Search Console and Meta, and schedules video posts.
05
Honesty rules in code
Reviews stay hidden until real ones exist, longevity is never invented, and AI-made imagery and music are disclosed wherever platforms ask.
