§ 01
Context

Shopify wasn't just the store — it was the transactional core of everything around it.

Product data, orders, content and customer journeys were spread across external websites, a CMS, CRM/ERP systems and custom dashboards, each holding its own copy of the truth. Catalogue changes, order status and campaign data had to be reconciled by hand before anyone could act on them.

§ 02
Approach

Storefront, app stack, integrations — one transactional layer.

L1 · Storefront Custom themes and storefronts — product pages, collections, checkout-related flows Shopify Plus · Liquid · TypeScript Conversion-focused, brand-consistent
L2 · Apps Curated app stack plus private apps: subscriptions, upsell/cross-sell, SEO tooling, sales attribution, admin-side merchant workflows Shopify App · Node.js Merchant operations in one admin
L3 · Integrations ERP / order management, product catalogues, delivery services, marketplaces, CMS and marketing platforms ERP/OMS · Klaviyo · CMS One connected ecosystem
§ 03
Outcome

One connected ecosystem instead of parallel systems.

The stores run as the transactional core: product data, orders and customer journeys move between Shopify Plus, the CMS, CRM/ERP, fulfilment and marketing tools instead of being maintained twice. Merchants work from the Shopify admin, and storefront work goes into conversion rather than reconciliation.
