Ermiyas Shopify Consulting.

Hey, I'm Ermiyas, founder and lead consultant. I've helped deliver 70+ Shopify stores for international brands, working in collaboration with agency partners as their Shopify lead. The consultancy focuses only on Shopify and Shopify Plus, so brands and agencies get a direct line to a specialist who gives it to you straight.

How I work

A proper partnership.

Whether you're a brand hiring a consultant or an agency adding senior Shopify capacity, the way I work stays the same.

01

Available when it matters

Launches get messy. I stay close to the work through go-live and the fixes that follow it.

02

Clean, future-proof code

Schema-driven architecture and code reviews, so your team can take the store over and keep building.

03

Commercially minded

I judge work by sales, conversion and traffic, not by tickets closed. Every decision ties back to a number.

Experience

Where I've been.

The results below were team wins, delivered in collaboration with agency partners. I led the Shopify development; the agencies led strategy, design and the client relationship.
