Shopify work,
handled sideways.

I'm Joshua, a Shopify virtual assistant and store specialist. Two years inside Shopify's technical merchant support, now freelance for founders who'd rather be selling than sitting in the admin.

Six things, done properly.

01

Theme & store build

Full storefronts from an empty admin, or precise edits to the theme you already run. Written into the theme in Liquid, not bolted on with another app.

02

Catalog & product data

Bulk imports, variant clean-up and structured attributes for brand, format and origin, plus the collections and filters on top of them.

MatrixifyMetafields
03

Daily operations

Orders, inventory levels, refunds and the customer inbox. The unglamorous daily work that keeps a store trustworthy.

04

Speed & Core Web Vitals

Find what's actually slowing the page down, then fix it in the theme. Images, blocking scripts, layout shift, app bloat.

05

SEO & AI visibility

On-page SEO plus the newer job: being the store that AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity actually cite.

06

Automation

Shopify Flow for the repetitive work, gateways and checkout configured properly, apps wired to talk to each other.

Two stores, start to finish.

Taste Culinary Food

A Philippine café-ingredient distributor moving off the shop floor and onto Shopify. Built from an empty admin: custom Liquid templates, brand pages for Catcher Gourmet, Toschi and Cafetto, payment gateways and checkout, metafields structuring every attribute, and a browser-based inventory reconciliation tool.

Adahlia Boutique

A UK modern-luxury womenswear label. Ongoing theme development and a rolling audit programme through a GitHub-connected deploy pipeline, holding one design system consistent across every section while the catalogue keeps changing.

Four steps, no mystery.

STEP 01

Free consult

Thirty minutes. You show me the store and the thing that's been annoying you. I tell you honestly whether it's worth paying someone to fix.

STEP 02

Audit & scope

A written list ordered by what will actually move revenue, with a price against each item. You could hand it to anyone.

STEP 03

Build

Work happens on a staging copy wherever possible. You see progress as it ships, not a silent month.

STEP 04

Hand over or stay on

Documented and handed back, or I stay on monthly and keep running it. No lock-in either way.
