The Waterlift project replaced a templated Shopify landing with a conversion‑focused Framer build. The core solution was adopting the Framer Commerce plugin to integrate a Framer front‑end with a Shopify back‑end, delivering a seamless buybox (subscription + one‑time), clean event tracking, and A/B/C price testing. This setup moved Waterlift ahead of “dummy” Shopify themes by enabling fast, no‑code design exploration, rapid positioning experiments, and scalable iteration without developer bottlenecks – while keeping checkout reliability and analytics intact.
