Problem
Fairway Tax Solutions - a Houston firm led by former IRS revenue officers - wanted to sell digital resources and own its web presence, but its Wix site couldn't take payment for downloads, wasn't built accessibly, and kept the firm's message boxed into a template. They needed a site they controlled and a storefront that could sell and deliver products without anyone fulfilling orders by hand.
Solution
The firm got a self-service store where publishing a product does the rest: it creates the matching Stripe product and price, records the order, emails the team on every sale, and delivers a gated, expiring download to the buyer, with no manual fulfillment. Built on Astro, Sanity, and Cloudflare Workers, it passed accessibility testing with zero violations and moved off Wix without disrupting the firm's email.
Results
Launched at fairwaytaxsolutions.com on July 13, 2026 with a working storefront, automated fulfillment, and a CMS the team runs itself. Pre-launch QA caught four silent failures - dropped lead emails, unread server secrets, buyers receiving nothing after paying, and unwired spam protection - and fixed them before a single customer hit them.
