I help Shopify stores sell more to the visitors you already pay to bring in.

I find the spots where shoppers give up, and then I fix them. Ads that bring visitors but not sales. Apps that bill you for work they do not do. Sales counted twice, so you stop trusting your numbers. These leaks hide where your shop hands its numbers to Google, Meta and your reports. Nobody owns that hand-off. I check what your money is really doing, instead of trusting what Google, Meta and your apps say. Then I show you where it goes. The check comes before the quote.

Who this is for
You run a Shopify store that already sells. You pay to bring visitors in, with ads, email or a marketplace. Too many of them leave without buying, or the numbers you see do not add up. I find the spot where shoppers give up, and I fix it myself.
Who it is not for
A store with no visitors yet. Someone who wants their ads run. A new look for a shop with nothing broken behind it. If that is you, I will say so on the first call and point you somewhere better.
How we start
One check of your shop for $285. In 3 business days you get what I found, in plain words, with the fixes in order. If you go ahead, I take the $285 off the fix price.

My check found the product labels Google reads were already in place. I would not quote a rebuild from scratch.

03 · How I work

Four habits, on every job.

01
Find the problem first
I find the real problem before I quote. I do not take on work nobody has looked at yet.
02
Do it the same way every time
Methods I can repeat, not one-off rescues. Code that stays yours when you change your design.
03
Stay with it
I stay close when you change your design or your apps. I stay for the first 30 days after launch. When I get something wrong, I say so right away.
04
Let the numbers decide
Numbers beat stories. When the numbers and the story disagree, the numbers win.
04 · In their words

Why clients come back.

When we transitioned to a new theme, he went above and beyond to migrate the bundle builder seamlessly — no small task — and made the whole process stress-free for our team. If you're looking for a developer who can tackle complex, custom functionality and actually deliver, Erick is your person.

Megan M. · Ranger Station

Erick has done more work in general than any other developer because he gets it done without pushback, does what he says within a timely manner, and notices 911 errors when they happen and will address them accordingly to ensure we are up and running.

Devin H. · Combat Iron Apparel

Erick did a great job updating my Shopify theme to the latest version. He was thorough in verifying nothing broke post-update, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and kept me informed every step of the way. No surprises, no issues.
