Customer Testimonials
“I have had the pleasure of working with Don and Your Store Wizards for almost 10 years now. Don and his team are capable of pulling off any project. They are fast and professional and skilled at what they do. Don and his team have done many custom projects for us over the years (both large and small) and we have always been happy with the services they provide and would not hesitate to recommend them for any job.
A lot of developers will over promise and cannot keep time commitments but we've never had that issue with Your Store Wizards. If you can think it up they can make it happen.”

“Your Store Wizards has been able to do everything we have ever asked and they get it done quickly. We have been working with Don Cole for about 10 years now. Our most recent project involved transitioning our WordPress blog from WordPress to the root domain of our Yahoo Store! The key word is "root" domain. Yes, you can easily take the blog and host it on a sub domain but that's not what we wanted because it is not as good for SEO. YSW was able to custom build a solution that works for us. We continue to add blogs through WP as normal and they get copied automatically to our Yahoo Store. Then are they published live on the root domain. Awesome!
Don has always worked his magic on our data feeds. We have very customized feeds for Amazon Marketplace, Google Shopping, Google Sitemaps, Comparison Shopping, Internal Search, MyBuys and many more. He has been able to work with 100,000+ SKU combinations we send him. He's able to make use of every image we have on the site matching the correct image to the correct child variation. This has been huge for increasing conversions.
I am always challenging Don to come up with new things and a better way to do old things. YSW is also great at continuing to make their own improvements and pushing them out. This drive and family approach make YSW a great partner to team up with.”

"Don Cole and his team at Your Store Wizards are amazing programmers. If you can dream it, they can do it.
Even applications that others say cannot be done, YourStoreWizards can do, and has done for us. For example, our stores are on the Yahoo! Store platform and Yahoo! does not support a blog as part of the domain. Yahoo! told us (repeatedly) that a blog as part of domain cannot be done on their platform, but Don and his guys did it. An invaluable resource for us!"

“Don at Your Store Wizards has been an asset to our company. He has yet to turn us down for any of our ideas on new features for our site. He seems to always find a way to get what we need done. He has also always been around to help with any issues that have come up (even if it wasn’t his fault). I can’t count how many emails I have exchanged with him in the middle of the night or very early in the morning. He is quick to respond and finishes things when promised. We could not be happier with the results we have gotten when using Don from Your Store Wizards.”

“Don and the Your Store Wizards team has been a great asset to my business over the past several years! They like tech as much as I like bacon! Often times you don't know how good a partner is going to be when you first start working with them as you need some history to really determine whether or not they will become a great asset and a great resource. In the case of Don from Your Store Wizards they have proven time and time again that they are a partner today tomorrow and well into the future of my business. I can't tell you how many times I have emailed Don or a member of his team on a Friday, Saturday or even a Sunday and gotten a response about the question that I have had.
Your Store Wizards and Don have been a tremendous resource to my business. They don't just provide generic answers, they provide customized solutions that are specific to my needs and that of my business! Anyone from their team is always prepared to answer a question and provide a solution to address the problems that I am having. As we have grown as a business we have been able to take more advantage of the services and offerings that Your Store Wizards has to offer.
I would also like to add that Don always gets the job done! They are always prepared to revise and re look at what they provided until I am 100% happy! Thanks Don!”

“Don Cole is the premier Yahoo developer with the most experience and in depth knowledge, period. More than once, I have used his emergency service to fix other less experienced developer coding errors. His in depth knowledge, quick understanding and high level of professionalism has saved me thousands of dollars with his quick, efficient work that would have been lost if another developer was used.
His feed services cover most platforms and are integrated into the store seamlessly. Don prioritizes everyone to the level that they each feel like his only client, is available in the middle of the night or anytime. His is truly "The Wizard".”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Your Store Wizards. They really have performed magic for me!
I’m a tough customer to please because I’m an old programmer. That means I can neither be dazzled by techno-gibberish, nor can I be appeased with techno-excuses. I never had to worry about that though, because I can truthfully report that my BS meter has never gone off while working with YSW.
They were straightforward, knowledgeable and professional all the way. They say what they mean, they mean what they say, and they know what they’re talking about. When they say something can be done, they know it for a fact before they say it. More importantly, they know upfront precisely what it will take to do it; no coming back later with explanations about why the price has increased due to unforeseen details. They don’t miss the details.
I not only relied on them to help me understand what could or could not be done, but I came to rely on them to help me understand what should be done. They proactively identified components of my design that did not translate well into development and suggested solutions. Their solutions were always practical, effective and economical. I felt confident they had my best interests in mind when designing solutions, and then proceeded to implement in a cost-effective manner.
I would be remiss in mentioning the ‘within budget’ aspect of their performance, without also noting the ON TIME delivery that I found to be their standard. Everything they promised was 100% completed within the quoted timeframe, and most of the time it was early.
YSW exemplifies an ongoing, lasting customer service standard of excellence. Over the many months and many enhancements to my site, they have never let that standard slip. Month after month, they continue to prove they value my business by performing at the same level of professionalism as when I was a new customer and they were trying to win my business.
If you’re looking for a development company for your website, I enthusiastically encourage you to engage Your Store Wizards. You won’t be sorry you did.”

“I have worked with Don Cole and his team at Your Store Wizards for almost 8 years, and they have always been amazing to work with. They are easy to talk to, listen to your needs, and take the time to explain the project and answer any questions you may have. I would trust Don and Your Store Wizards with any project. Our years of working together have proven their commitment to customer service and quality project completion.
When Don and his team tell us they can get something done, we know they have truly taken the time to make sure it can and will happen. They do the research before making a commitment. No matter what, they also stand by their promises. If they run into a challenge, they do whatever possible to work through it and make it right.
Regarding timelines, half the time when we ask for a change or a smaller project, instead of emailing that they can do it they email that it is already done! For other larger projects, they take the time to quote it as accurately as possible and stay in good communication throughout the project with updates. I have confidence every time I work with them that what they say will get done, will, and in the timeframe they promised.
Don Cole is remarkably professional, and takes the time to get to know you and your business. You feel like an important and valued client. I commend him and his team for their dedication to their work and their client, and recommend them without reservation.”

“I can honestly say that whenever I need to look to a third party to address a need or problem, I always start with Your Store Wizards. This is mainly because if they say they can do it, they will do it. I always feel like all of my concerns are considered and if they don’t feel they can take on a project, I usually get good recommendations from YSW. I also know that if YSW does take on a project, I will get timely responses and communication throughout the process. This, combined with the amazing turnaround and support we get with the feed services, is why I will keep coming back to YSW as long as we have a yahoo store.”

“YSW has been invaluable to us.
Don and the Your Store Wizards team represents the future blend of business and programming. I've presented them with impossible ideas and have been impressed with not only the quick execution, but recommended improvements on the idea. Your Store Wizards has the pulse of internet retail covered and they have always delivered. If they say they can do it, they will and it will perform better than you thought possible. YSW's quick response time and service after the sale is golden. We rely constantly on their expertise, and their impact on our business is invaluable.”

“I have been using the Wizards for years to make little tweaks to my website that are beyond my limited scope of knowledge. It's not a very sophisticated site, but then, neither am I or are my customers - we're Grammies! The Wizards have allowed me to add affordable elements to Grammie's Attic that keep it current and functional. I really appreciate that the staff work with me until I'm happy with what I get, even if I didn't know enough to ask for it correctly in the first place!”
