The problem

Most brands pick one of two bad options.

Your store needs an owner. Here is what that usually costs, and what it costs with me.

Option 1

Hire full time

$150K+ / year
  • Salary, benefits, and recruiting fees
  • Months to hire, then more months to ramp
  • Still need a developer and designer underneath them
Option 2

Stitch together vendors

4 invoices / month
  • Developer, designer, email agency, social freelancer
  • None of them talk, none of them own revenue
  • You become the project manager
The better option

One owner, on retainer

From $3,000 / month
  • Senior lead who builds and directs everything
  • First changes ship in week one
  • Month to month, no recruiting, no ramp

What I own

Every part of running a Shopify store.

I do the hands on work myself and direct the rest, so your store, email, and marketing finally pull in the same direction.

Store and development

Theme builds, custom sections, apps and integrations, site speed, migrations, and the technical health nobody else is watching.

Design and UX

Product pages, landing pages, collections, cart, and mobile, designed to sell and kept consistent with your brand.

Conversion and testing

A/B tests, funnel analysis, offers and pricing, and checkout fixes that turn the traffic you already pay for into buyers.

Retention and email

Klaviyo flows and campaigns, subscriptions, upsells, and post-purchase, so every customer is worth more over time.

Analytics and reporting

Clean tracking, a KPI dashboard you actually read, and a monthly review of what moved and what's next.

Marketing, content, and brand

Social and content direction, launch and promo planning, brand consistency, and managing your freelancers and agencies.

Results

What changes when your store has an owner.

Real outcomes from past clients. Names withheld, since most of my work is under NDA or white label.

Skincare · Ongoing retainer
+71%
conversion rate, same ad spend

A store that leaked buyers became one that improves every month.

Before: one hero product carried the business, products were buried, and the mobile cart fought shoppers.
After: shoppers get guided to the right product, checkout on a phone is effortless, and organic revenue grew 62% in 6 months.
Subscriptions · Retention
7% → 32%
subscription opt-in

Over 4x more customers choosing subscribe and save.

Before: strong first orders, weak repeat revenue, and subscription and upsell apps working against each other.
After: subscribing is the obvious choice on every page, every order gets a relevant upsell, and AOV is up 18%.
Supplements · Site rebuild
7.9s → 2.1s
mobile load time

A rebuild that paid for itself in 6 weeks.

Before: an old, bloated theme with 20+ apps, slow pages, and simple changes that took days and a developer.
After: a fast new theme the team can edit themselves, half the apps, and conversion up 24%.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Who is this for?

Shopify brands doing $15K a month or more, with real traffic and a product that sells. If you're pre-launch or looking for the cheapest developer available, I'm not the right fit, and I'll say so.

Which plan is right for me?

If you mainly need the store built, fixed, and optimized, Operator. If you want one person owning ecommerce, including marketing direction and your vendors, Head of Ecommerce. Not sure yet? Start with a Sprint.

Do you create the content and run social yourself?

I set the direction, plan the content, and create what fits, like site content, email, and product pages. For high volume production I direct your team or freelancers so it stays on brand and tied to revenue.

How fast will I see results?

The first changes ship in week one. Most clients see measurable movement within the first month.

Do you bill hourly?

No. Plans are flat monthly retainers. Scope is agreed on our first call and reviewed every month.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Month to month after the first month, with 30 days notice.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes, as a white label Shopify developer. See the agencies page .

Know a brand that needs an owner?

Introduce us. When they sign, you get 10% of their first 3 months, paid once their third payment clears.
