Conversion Audits & Dev Support

Are you growing out of your existing Shopify Store?

If your product has evolved, a rebuild might be easier than constant updates. We keep what works, fix what doesn’t, and design for your next stage of growth.

Conversion Audits & Dev Support

Your product has evolved but your store feels stagnant.

We can help you start fresh and rebuild for better user experience, easier back-end updating, and a smoother purchase flow is tailored to who you are today.

Does this sound like your store?

  • A recent rebrand doesn’t fit your current site

  • Your product (and SKUs) have grown and evolved

  • You’re migrating from Magento, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, or headless

  • You’re making too many one-off changes

  • You need to dial in your site before a launch

Have a Question?

Shopify and e-commerce are where we do our best work because that’s where we’ve seen the biggest impact for growing brands.

We specialize in Shopify builds and custom functionality designed to scale. Most Shopify problems do not show up on day one. They show up when traffic increases, product lines expand, and your tech stack starts fighting itself.

We build for that moment before it becomes expensive.

That said, we’re developers first. We do take on non-ecommerce and custom platform projects when there’s a strong strategic fit. If your project needs thoughtful UX, clean architecture, and long-term flexibility, we’re happy to explore it and we’ll be honest if we’re not the right partner.

We’d rather point you in the right direction than force a bad fit.

Start with a conversation.

Tell us where your business is today, where you’re headed, and what’s currently getting in the way. We’ll ask smart questions, give you clear feedback, and help you decide the next best move, whether that’s working together or not.

Either way, you’ll leave with clarity.

Yes, but not by slapping on another app and hoping for the best.

If your site looks good but isn’t converting, the issue usually isn’t design. It’s hidden friction that quietly bleeds revenue every day. Slow load times, confusing flows, poor mobile UX, or features that fight each other behind the scenes all compound as traffic grows.

We identify what’s actually costing you sales, then fix it properly. That might mean simplifying the buying journey, rebuilding key sections, replacing clunky tools with custom solutions, or improving performance across the board.

The goal isn’t just more sales today. It’s a store that keeps converting as your business scales.

Sometimes, but we’re selective.

If you’re still validating products or experimenting with direction, our level of involvement may be more than you need right now. We’re built for brands that are past trying things and ready to invest in infrastructure that supports growth.

We’ll always be honest about that, even if it means delaying a project.

Less than you think, and definitely less than most agencies ask for.

To start, we typically need:

  • Access to your Shopify store

  • Context around your goals, challenges, and priorities

  • Any existing designs, data, or ideas you already have

From there, we handle the technical heavy lifting and guide the process end to end. You’ll always know what’s happening, what’s next, and why, without being buried in jargon or endless check-ins.

That’s more common than you think, especially for brands growing faster than their infrastructure.

Most teams don’t struggle because they lack ideas. They struggle because no one is responsible for turning growth into systems that can actually handle it.

That’s where we come in.

If you’re unsure what you need right now, we’ll help you zoom out. We look at where your brand is today, where it’s headed, and what your Shopify setup needs to support that growth, not just this launch but the next few as well.

Instead of patching problems, we build flexible systems that evolve with your business. So you’re not rebuilding your site every time you level up.

You do. Always.

We build clean, maintainable solutions inside your Shopify ecosystem, not locked-down systems that only we can touch. Whether you continue working with us or not, you’ll have full ownership and visibility into what’s been built.

We believe trust is built through transparency, not dependency. If we do our job right, you’ll want to keep working with us because it makes sense, not because you have to.

Sometimes, depending on scope and timing.

If there’s a hard launch date or campaign deadline, we’ll look at what’s realistic without compromising quality. In some cases, that means prioritizing high-impact work first or adjusting scope.

We’ll always be upfront about what’s possible and what would create unnecessary risk.

Timelines depend on the level of support you need, which is why we structure our work around three engagement types:

Boost
Targeted improvements like performance upgrades, UX fixes, or specific feature builds. Typically 2 to 4 weeks.

Build
Full Shopify builds or major restructures. Most projects fall in the 6 to 10 week range, allowing time to design, develop, test, and launch without cutting corners.

Bolster
Ongoing support for growing brands. There’s no fixed end date. We work in phases, continuously improving and expanding your store as your business scales.

We don’t treat launch as the finish line. We structure timelines so your site works now and keeps working as your goals grow.

Launch isn’t the finish line. It’s the starting point.

Some brands wrap after launch. Others move into ongoing support through our Bolster engagement, where we continue optimizing, building, and improving as the business grows.

Either way, we don’t disappear once the site goes live. You’ll always know what’s next and what support looks like.

Growth brings new ideas, and we plan for that.

If priorities shift or new requirements come up, we’ll talk through the impact on timeline and investment before moving forward. No surprise invoices. No silent delays.

Clear communication is part of the process.

Because speed and stability are a tradeoff, and most rushed builds sacrifice the wrong one.

Fast launches that ignore structure usually come back as slow sites, broken flows, and rebuilds that cost far more than doing it properly the first time.

We optimize for momentum and durability.

Often, yes, by design.

We’re not competing with offshore dev shops or agencies selling fast, fragile fixes. We focus on building stores that hold up as traffic increases, product lines expand, and complexity grows.

That usually costs more upfront and far less over time.

In many cases, yes.

For larger projects, we often structure work in phases so investment aligns with progress and priorities. This allows brands to move forward without overextending, while still building things the right way.

We’ll walk through options during your initial call and recommend what makes the most sense for your situation.

We’re not the cheapest option, and we’re very comfortable with that.

Brands come to us after outgrowing quick fixes, templated builds, or cheap development that had to be redone. Our pricing reflects clean architecture, long-term thinking, and work that doesn’t need to be unraveled six months later.

If budget is the primary driver, we’re probably not the right partner.
If longevity, performance, and scalability are, we usually are.

You’re paying for clarity, execution, and systems that scale.

That includes:

  • Thoughtful UX and customer-flow design

  • Clean, maintainable development, not app bloat

  • Performance optimization and technical strategy

  • Clear communication and ownership throughout the process

In short, fewer shortcuts, fewer surprises, and a site that’s built to support growth, not just launch.

Because no two builds, or businesses, are the same.

Pricing depends on scope, complexity, integrations, and the level of support your brand actually needs. Publishing a flat price would either overcharge some brands or underdeliver for others, and we’re not interested in either.

Instead, we use an initial call to understand your goals and recommend the right level of investment. That way pricing is aligned with outcomes, not guesswork.
