I spent this entire month obsessed with Shopify.
Custom stores. Theme editing. Liquid. Everything.
And honestly? It was hard.
But today I launched my first custom Shopify build.
And it's beautiful.
Live site: [https://g1fjqw-7b.myshopify.com/]
Here's what I realized:
Framer is great for marketing sites.
But Shopify?
Shopify is for founders who actually want to make money.
Product pages that convert.
Checkout flows that don't scare people away.
Designs that make visitors buy instead of just browse.
That's powerful.
So now I do both:
Framer for startups and Shopify for ecommerce.
If you're selling products and want a store that actually converts (not just looks pretty), let's talk.
2 spots open this month.
DM me.
ONLY 4 MONTHS LEFT UNTIL BLACK FRIDAY.
Most people think Black Friday preparation starts in October.
It doesn't.
The biggest brands start preparing 3–4 months in advance, and there's a reason for it.
Months before Black Friday, they redesign their stores, improve page speed, optimize SEO, create high-converting landing pages, and start driving organic and paid traffic.
But here's what many store owners don't realize...
They're not just preparing the website.
They're preparing their customers.
As visitors keep returning to your store over the next few months, they naturally become familiar with your website—its layout, navigation, product pages, and overall shopping experience.
By the time Black Friday arrives, your customers already know where everything is. They don't have to figure out your website—they simply focus on buying.
Then, a few days before Black Friday, most successful brands only update their promotional banners, offer sections, and sale creatives. The overall structure and shopping flow stay the same because customers are already comfortable using the site.
That's one of the biggest reasons why these brands convert more visitors into buyers.
Black Friday isn't won by changing your website overnight.
It's won by spending the months before the sale improving your store, building trust, and creating a seamless shopping experience.
If your store needs:
-A fresh, conversion-focused redesign
- Landing pages that actually convert
-Better page speed & performance
-SEO optimization for long-term traffic
-Mobile optimization
- A smoother customer journey
Now is the perfect time to start—not a few weeks before Black Friday.
As a Shopify & Landing Page Specialist, I help brands optimize their stores for higher conversions through better design, performance, and user experience. I also work on SEO optimization to help businesses build stronger organic visibility before the biggest shopping season of the year.
If you want your store to be fully prepared before Black Friday, let's start now.
->DM me today, and let's build a store that's ready to convert when the biggest sales season arrives.

Built RetroGrasp — an e-commerce store with an AI-generated UI on the front end and Shopify running the backend. 📼
The stack: Lovable designed and built the entire storefront UI, while Shopify handles inventory, checkout, and store logic underneath — AI-native front end, battle-tested e-commerce backend.
A few things that make it more than just a themed store:
🎨 Retro Image Generator — visitors can turn their own photos into 90s-style retro edits directly on the site, tying the interactive experience back to the brand's whole "step into the 90s" concept
🕹️ Arcade Games — playable retro mini-games built right into the site, turning a shopping visit into something you actually stick around for
🛒 Full Shopify catalog — Walkmans, boomboxes, VHS players, cassettes and more, with Analog Press letting customers send in their own tapes for digital transfer
This is what happens when you stop treating "AI website builder" and "e-commerce platform" as separate categories — Lovable for the experience layer, Shopify for the commerce layer, working together instead of one replacing the other.
