Many might wonder why we would bother explaining the difference between a Yahoo! Store Developer and Yahoo! Store Designer. Most people routinely use the two terms; “Yahoo! Store Developer” and “Yahoo! Store Designer,” interchangeably in conversation and search anyway.
For those not interested in Yahoo! Stores it’s probably fine not to go into details, but for Yahoo! Store merchants, it’s important to know the difference because it delineates two important roles crucial to the construction of a custom Yahoo! Store.
Yahoo! Store designers are the ones in initial calls with merchants to get an understanding of how they want their site to look and feel. Yahoo! Store designers have a special eye for giving clients constructive feedback on how their Yahoo! Store vision will appeal to customers. FastPivot Yahoo! Store designer, Nikki Whited says, “I make it look pretty. Developers make it work.”
Once final design blueprints are approved they are passed on to the Yahoo! Store developer who will then make the Yahoo! Store design functional within the Yahoo! Store wire frame.
FastPivot Yahoo! Store developer, Adria Wood explains, “It’s like the difference between an architect who does drawings of your home – front and back elevation, interior layout, etc. – and the builder who uses their skill to make it happen. Sometimes your architect and builder may need to work together to blend what is possible and what can be dreamed to make a real solution for your home.”
Now, during the next meeting with your Yahoo! Store construction team, you’ll know who it is that you want to share your dreams with first and then who to check with to see if those dreams can become reality.
