Your product is better than your website.

I rebuild Shopify stores for small Australian businesses who make or stock something genuinely good and are losing sales to a site that doesn't show it. One fixed price, two weeks, and you own everything at the end.

The product sells itself in person. Online, it doesn't.

What this looks like in practice

I built and ran Inarretable, an Australian ecommerce brand — product pages, email automation, Google Shopping campaigns, ACL-compliant policies, the lot. When I audit your store, I'm checking for the same problems I've already fixed on my own.

The Teardown Free

I go through your store the way a customer would and write up the three things costing you the most sales. Specific — this headline, this photo, this step of your checkout. No call required, nothing to decline at the end of it.

The teardown is useful whether or not you hire me. Most people start here.

The Rebuild $2,950

I do the work. The pages that actually decide whether someone buys, rebuilt properly — positioning, design, copy and build. Two weeks, one invoice, and every file and login is yours at the end.

Most people take the keys and run it themselves, which is the point. If you'd rather someone kept an eye on it, this is month to month and you can stop any time — no contract, no notice period.

  • A one-page report each month — what happened and the one thing worth fixing
  • Up to an hour of changes: new products, banners, seasonal updates
  • One email campaign to your list, written and sent
  • Theme and app health check so nothing quietly breaks

Start to finish.

You send me your URL

Nothing else. No brief, no forms, no discovery call to book.

I send the teardown

Two days later. If it's useful and you'd rather handle it yourself, take it — genuinely, that's a good result.

We talk, if you want to

Twenty minutes on the phone about whether a rebuild makes sense. Sometimes the answer is no, and I'll say so.

Fixed quote, fixed scope, fixed date

You know the price and the finish date before anything starts. Anything outside the scope gets agreed in writing first.

Handover

You own every file and every login. I'll show you how to run it, then get out of your way.

I run a Shopify store myself.

Forbes McKie

Not an agency, and not someone reselling a template. I've built and run an Australian ecommerce brand end to end — the theme, the product pages, the email automation, the policies, the Google Ads account, the supplier side, the mistakes. When something on your store is broken, I've usually broken it on my own first and worked out why.

That means I'll tell you when a fix isn't worth doing. Most of what gets sold as strategy is fiddling. The things that move the number are usually three or four unglamorous ones, and they're rarely the ones people want to hear about.

Psychology degree, which matters more than it sounds. Most of this work is understanding what someone's worried about at the exact moment they hesitate.

What I won't do.

Fair enough.

Why is the teardown free?

Because it's the only honest way to show you what I'd be like to work with. You get something useful whether or not you hire me, and I get to see whether your store is a fit before either of us commits. If everyone took the teardown and nothing else, that's my problem, not yours.

How many clients have you done this for?

I'm new to doing this for other people. I've done it extensively for my own store — product pages, email flows, Google Shopping campaigns, conversion tracking, supplier management, policy compliance. You'd be one of the first external clients, which means I'd be working harder to impress you than I ever will again. The teardown is free either way, so you can judge the quality before anything costs you money.

Why $2,950 when agencies quote $12,000?

Because there's one person doing the work, no account managers, no project coordinators, no office. The overhead is close to zero, so the price reflects the work, not the payroll.

What if my site isn't on Shopify?

The teardown works on anything. The rebuild is Shopify-specific — it's the platform I know deeply, and I'd rather do one thing well than five things loosely.

Do you take over my Shopify or ad accounts?

I work as a collaborator, not an owner. You keep full control, and at handover you remove my access. Nothing changes about who owns what.

What about my existing developer?

If they're good, I'll tell you. This isn't about replacing anyone — it's about doing the specific pages and flows that decide whether someone buys.

Will this actually increase my sales?

I can't guarantee it, and I won't. What I can tell you is that most stores lose sales to fixable problems — unclear positioning, missing trust signals, broken checkout flows. Fixing those changes the odds meaningfully. But your product and your market decide the ceiling.

How do payments work?

50% upfront, 50% on handover. Invoice and bank transfer. The upfront half secures your spot in the schedule; the second half isn't due until you've reviewed everything and we've done the handover call.

Send me your store.
I'll send back what's wrong with it.

One email with your URL is enough. You'll have the teardown in two days, and there's nothing to decline at the end of it.
