Ecommerce consulting with fixed scope and clear deliverables
Before you hire an agency, replatform or double your ad budget, you need to know where growth is actually stuck. Most consulting engagements fail because the deliverable is vague and the advice is generic.
Our ecommerce consulting engagements are fixed in scope and price, with a clear deliverable at the end: a growth audit, a 90-day roadmap or a platform recommendation you can take to your board, and implement with us or anyone else.
When to bring in an ecommerce consultant
- Growth has stalled and you can't tell if the problem is acquisition, conversion, retention, pricing or operations
- You're evaluating a replatform (or a move to a headless build) and need an objective view
- You're about to hire an agency or team and need a clear brief
- Leadership or investors want an independent assessment
Questions we're often asked to answer
- Why has growth stalled, and what should we fix first?
- Is our CAC sustainable, and what's a realistic target?
- Should we replatform, and to what?
- Do we need an agency, more in-house hires, or both?
- How should we split next year's marketing budget across channels?
- Is it time to add Amazon, TikTok Shop or wholesale, and how without hurting our DTC margins?
- What should our measurement and reporting setup look like?
Engagements
Growth audit
A structured review of your unit economics (CAC, LTV, contribution margin), funnel conversion, channel performance, retention, site experience and tech stack. You get findings ranked by revenue impact and effort.
90-day roadmap
Platform selection
A requirements definition, platform comparison (for example Shopify, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce or headless), a total cost of ownership estimate and a migration risk assessment, ending in a clear recommendation.
- PLACEHOLDER: confirm whether fractional ecommerce leadership is offered; add a section only if so.

What makes our consulting different
Fixed scope, fixed price. You know exactly what you’re buying before we start.
Evidence over opinion. Every recommendation is tied to your data, with the reasoning shown.
Practitioner advice. Our consultants run the channels and builds they advise on, so recommendations are grounded in what’s actually achievable.
Built to be implemented. Deliverables are written as plans your team (or any partner) can execute, not slide decks that sit in a folder.
From plan to execution
Many clients ask us to implement the recommendations: growth marketing for online brands, website design or conversion rate optimization. There’s no obligation. The deliverable stands on its own.

How long does an engagement take?
Who should be involved on our side?
Most audits and roadmaps take a few weeks, depending on scope and how quickly data access is set up. Platform selection projects can take longer if requirements need workshops across several teams
