Why brands come to us

For the Shopify calls that are too costly to get wrong.

Most teams do not need more hands on small tickets. They need a senior specialist for the handful of decisions that shape the next year: whether to go headless, how to rebuild checkout, which apps to trust, and what to fix first. We are the Shopify experts brands bring in when the stakes are real and the in-house team is stretched thin. Engage us for focused Shopify consulting, or as a standing extension of your team.

What our Shopify experts do

Senior Shopify advice and hands, from one quick question to a full embedded team.

Engage us for a single decision or a standing seat in your sprints. Either way, the same senior specialists carry it, and every engagement is scoped to your roadmap rather than a fixed package.

Experts across both plans

Shopify experts who know standard and Plus.

Engage specialists who work across both plans, so the advice is about your store, not a plan upsell. Whether you run standard Shopify or Plus, our experts diagnose fast, build to Shopify standards, and tell you honestly when Plus is and is not worth it.

Shopify

We bring deep standard-Shopify experience: themes, apps, Hydrogen, and integrations, plus the judgment to know how far a store can scale before Plus is actually needed.

Best when
  • You run standard Shopify today
  • You want senior help without a plan push
  • Theme, app, or integration depth is needed
Shopify Plus

Our Plus specialists know checkout extensibility, Functions, B2B, and Markets from the inside, so they extend the enterprise plan correctly and get full value from the fee you already pay.

Best when
  • You run Shopify Plus already
  • Checkout, B2B, or Markets need real expertise
  • You want to use what Plus unlocks

Why IWD

The same senior specialists from the first question to launch and beyond.

Most Shopify advice goes wrong for one of two reasons: it comes from a junior who has never shipped at scale, or the agency disappears once the retainer starts. We built IWD to do the opposite.

  • Genuine Shopify experts, not a help desk

    You work directly with senior engineers who hold Shopify Plus partner depth across themes, Hydrogen, and checkout. Your questions reach the people who actually do the work.

  • Senior team, no junior bench

    We do not staff your account with trainees and step away. The specialists who advise you are the ones who write the code and stand behind it.

  • Sixteen years on Shopify

    We have built on Shopify and Shopify Plus across high-volume DTC, complex B2B, and cross-border Markets, so our advice comes from shipped work, not theory.

  • We advise, build, and stay

    Most clients keep us on long after the first engagement. The team that diagnoses the problem is the team that fixes it and keeps the store performing.

How we work

A clear path from first question to measurable results.

01

Listen

We start with where the store and the team are stuck: the backlog, the blockers, and the questions nobody in-house has had time to answer.

02

Assess

A focused review of your theme, apps, checkout, and analytics. You get a clear read on what is costing you and what is worth building next.

03

Advise

A prioritized plan with scope and a real number, plus the engagement model that fits, whether that is advisory, project work, or an embedded team.

04

Execute

Senior Shopify experts ship the work in two-week sprints with weekly demos, then stay on to tune performance and keep the roadmap moving.

Questions, answered

What teams ask before they bring in our Shopify experts.

What does "Shopify expert advising" actually mean?

It means direct access to senior Shopify specialists for the decisions that matter: architecture, app selection, checkout strategy, headless versus theme, and what to build next. You can take that advice and run with it in-house, or have the same experts execute it. There is no junior account layer between you and the people who know the platform.

Are you certified Shopify experts?

Yes. We hold Shopify Plus partner depth and have built on Shopify and Shopify Plus since the early days, across custom themes, Hydrogen headless storefronts, checkout extensibility, B2B, and Markets. Our recommendations come from work we have shipped, not a certification badge alone.

Can we hire your Shopify specialists as an embedded team?

Yes, and it is one of the most common ways clients work with us. Senior Shopify engineers join your sprints, standups, and backlog as an extension of your in-house team, without the hiring overhead or the months it takes to ramp a new hire.

Can you advise on a store another agency built?

Absolutely. We run a theme, app, and checkout review first, document what we find in plain language, then give you a prioritized plan before touching anything. Inheriting and untangling other teams' work is routine for us.

How do you scope and quote an engagement?

Every engagement is scoped to your store and your team: where you are today, what you want to build, and the work it takes to get there. You get a firm, itemized quote on the first call, with no long sales cycle, so you know exactly what you are committing to before anything begins.

Do you only advise, or do you build too?

Both. Some clients want a senior sounding board and a roadmap they execute themselves. Others want us to build it. Most want a mix, and they get the same Shopify experts across advisory, development, and ongoing growth.

Tell us the decision you are weighing or the gap on your team. We will come back within one business day with a real plan, a real timeline, and a real number.
