The best CRM projects we’ve seen all have one thing in common.

They focus on fundamentals before features.

Clear lifecycle definitions.
Simple, enforceable processes.
Reporting that leadership actually uses.
Automation that supports people instead of confusing them.

It’s rarely about doing more.
It’s about doing fewer things better.

When the foundation is solid, everything else moves faster.

Including marketing 
Including sales.
Including onboarding.
Including decision-making.

Strategic GTM + Hubspot Technical Consulting - Diamond Partner, Ops-minded problem solver, Dad

This should’ve existed years ago, but I’m still celebrating. HubSpot workflows now support business-day delays (weekends excluded).

Cleaner timing.
Fewer surprises.
Less manual cleanup.

Finally, workflows that behave like real-world operations.

Adam Sharrow 🤙🏼

No alternative text description for this image

Hot take: letting people rename standard objects in HubSpot but not standard properties is unhinged behavior.

You rename Deals to Opportunities because “that’s what sales calls them.”

Cool. Fine. Love that for you.

Then you open a workflow and see:

• Deal entered stage
• Deal exited stage
• Deal close date
• Deal owner
• Deal probability

So now your “Opportunity” pipeline is powered by a bunch of properties that insist, loudly and repeatedly, that they are still DEALS.

It’s like renaming your dog to Max but everyone in your house keeps yelling “COME HERE, STEVE.”

Technically it works.
Practically it’s chaos.

This causes real problems:

Confused users who think they’re in the wrong object

New hires asking “what’s the difference between a Deal and an Opportunity?”

Reports and workflows that feel gaslight-y

RevOps teams explaining this for the 47th time on a Zoom call

Either:

Let us rename the standard properties to match the object
or

Don’t let us rename the object at all

Right now we’re living in the uncanny valley of CRM semantics.

Anyway.
If you’ve ever inherited a portal where “Opportunities” still say “Deal entered lifecycle stage” everywhere...

I see you.

Most companies don’t have a CRM problem.
They have a process clarity problem.

When teams say:

“HubSpot didn’t work for us”
What they usually mean is:
“No one could clearly explain how work actually flows here.”

Leads come in through five different places.
Deals get created sometimes.
Ownership changes depending on who last touched the account.
Projects live in another tool.
Revenue data lives somewhere else.

The CRM isn’t broken.
It’s just faithfully reflecting the mess underneath.

This is why process mapping matters so much early.

Not as documentation.
Not as flowcharts for the sake of flowcharts.

But as a forcing function:

Who owns what?

Where do handoffs actually happen?

What should happen vs what does happen?

Where are we losing momentum, leads, or context?

Until you can see the full path end to end, every tool decision is guesswork.

And no amount of automation fixes guesswork.

Clarify the process, then optimize it in your systems.

What we fix first when a team says "we’re only using 10% of HubSpot."
When a team tells me they’re “only using 10% of HubSpot,”
my first reaction isn’t to show them more features.

It’s to slow things down.

Here’s what we actually fix first 👇

• Lead ownership
If no one owns the lead, nothing else matters.

• A single intake path
Not five inboxes, forms, spreadsheets, and side conversations. One front door.

• Clear rules for when a deal gets created
No vibes. No “it depends who’s working it.” Actual criteria.

• Simple deal stages that reflect reality
Not 14 stages. Just the steps that actually move revenue forward.

• Visibility for leadership
If leaders aren’t looking at the system, the team won’t use it either.

Only after those are solid do we touch:
automation, scoring, workflows, integrations, dashboards, or AI.

Because “using more of HubSpot” isn’t the goal.

Running a cleaner, more predictable revenue process is.

Map View puts your contacts and companies directly on an interactive map inside HubSpot (Beta). What an awesome native view in your CRM

No exports.
No third-party tools.
No spreadsheet gymnastics.

Just instant location context you can actually use:
- See who’s near an event
- Spot territory gaps fast
- Understand regional concentration at a glance

This is what good CRM UX looks like:
- less friction
- faster decisions
- zero duct tape

If you’re on Enterprise and have access, this one’s worth clicking around today.

If you are looking at the view saying, "I need to enrich my data," we can help with that

First full week back was so much fun, I forgot to even look at LinkedIn. 

Next week, we'll resume the RevOps and CRM fun

HubSpot isn’t just a CRM. It’s the operating system.

We’re seeing this more and more as teams build their entire operating motion inside HubSpot.

Not just:
• contacts
• deals
• activities

But:
• how work flows between teams
• how data moves (or breaks) across systems
• how decisions actually get made

When HubSpot is treated like “just a CRM,” teams optimize fields and pipelines.

When it’s treated like an operating system, teams design:
• ownership
• handoffs
• guardrails
• automation tied to real business outcomes

That shift changes everything.

How are you seeing this play out? 

Are you still managing a CRM...or running your business on it?

I built an AI-assisted performance review process, and it's been a game-changer.

For years, year-end reviews have been a huge documentation burden—often inconsistent and taking too much time away from actual coaching. I decided to reverse-engineer my most successful chat sessions with Gemini to create a "Standard Performance Review Prompt."

The goal? To be a neutral facilitator that guides managers through a fair, structured, and consistent evaluation, starting with all the necessary context:
- Prior Expectations
- Period Goals
- Mid-Cycle Feedback
- Employee Self-Review

The biggest win is efficiency: The manager uses simple voice-to-text to provide all their feedback. The AI synthesizes these verbal responses into a cohesive, finished review. No more staring at a blank screen or spending hours on write-ups.

This process is making our reviews:
1. Consistent
2. Fair (eliminates hindsight bias)
3. Fast (drastically cuts documentation time)

If you're tired of the traditional review grind and see the potential for AI to streamline your ops processes, let me know.

The fastest way to kill a CRM project is trying to boil the ocean and solve everything at once.

I see this mistake all the time.

A team finally commits to “fixing the CRM” and immediately wants:

Advanced automation

Complex scoring models

Perfect dashboards

Every integration turned on

Forecasting that works on day one

That approach can work.

But only if the foundation is already there.

If lead intake is clear.
If ownership is defined.
If deal stages reflect reality.

Without that, all you’re doing is adding complexity on top of uncertainty.

When CRM projects stall, it’s rarely because the software is limited.
It’s because the sequence is wrong.

What actually works for most teams looks a lot more boring:

• Stop missing leads
• Define ownership at each stage
• Track a simple, honest pipeline

Once that’s solid, advanced workflows actually stick.
Automation helps instead of hurting.
Dashboards start to mean something.

The goal isn’t to move slow.
It’s to move in the right order.

Some teams are ready to sprint.
Most need to walk first.

This week brought the flu to our house.
Which means the kids haven’t been in daycare all week.

You still pay for daycare all week, obviously.
And now a snow and ice storm is bearing down on us for good measure.

Some weeks are about momentum.
Some weeks are just about survival.

This one feels like I’m surviving this week... and probably the start of next week too.

Anybody else in this mode today? Onward and upward!

Happy NFL Sunday. Go Pats. It feels like the Patriots might finally have their quarterback situation figured out.

And that matters, because we all know how this ends when you don’t.

Which brings me to what I see play out in business:

If three people own the account, no one owns the account.

“Everyone kind of owns it” is the fastest way to kill momentum.

It’s the same two-quarterback problem.
Everyone’s capable.
No one’s actually responsible.

This shows up immediately when you map the process, because one question keeps coming up:

Who owns this right now?

When there’s no clear answer:

Sales assumes support has it

Support assumes the account manager does

The account manager assumes it was handled

The CRM didn’t create the problem.
It just exposed it.

Clear ownership isn’t about control.
It’s about momentum.

HubSpot isn’t a CRM.
It’s the operating system for revenue.

And for RevOps leaders, that means it’s increasingly the control plane between systems.

We’re seeing teams use HubSpot to govern things like:
• when a deal is allowed to sync to accounting
• what revenue data is considered “final” vs provisional
• how invoicing is triggered (and blocked)
• when ARR, MRR, and bookings become reportable
• which systems are downstream consumers vs sources of truth

In practice, that looks like:
• required properties before a deal can close-won
• pipeline stages mapped directly to invoicing states
• workflows enforcing data completeness before NetSuite, QuickBooks, or Stripe sync
• custom objects modeling subscriptions, line items, or usage
• integrations acting as gates, not just pipes

This isn’t CRM configuration.
It’s revenue systems engineering.

When HubSpot is treated as the operating system:
• automation becomes policy enforcement
• integrations encode financial controls
• lifecycle stages align Sales, Finance, and CS
• reporting discrepancies expose broken process, not “bad data”

The teams that struggle treat HubSpot like a better Salesforce.

The teams that scale treat it like infrastructure sitting between GTM and Finance.

If you’re leading RevOps, the real question isn’t:
“How do we configure HubSpot?”

It’s:
“Where does revenue truth live, who depends on it, and how do we enforce it across systems?”

Curious which integration or handoff causes the most pain in your stack right now.

Passion for Growing Businesses | Hubspot Optimization + Custom Solutions

Always appreciate when clients take the time to share thoughtful feedback.

One of our clients recently submitted a review about a recent project where the goal was to update a legacy HubSpot setup. Hearing that the work helped create cleaner data, stronger alignment, and more trusted reporting is a great reflection of the approach we strive to bring to every project.

Shout out to Jessica MacAndrews 🦋 and Elizabeth Entrekin for their work on this engagement and for delivering such a strong outcome for our customer.

Onboarding sets up software.
Implementation sets up the business.

Most CRM onboarding looks like this:

- Pipelines created
- Users added
- Emails connected
- A few dashboards turned on
- Training sessions scheduled

All necessary. None of it is transformational.

Because onboarding assumes the process already exists and just needs to be configured.

Implementation is different.

It’s about defining how work flows end-to-end.
Where handoffs happen.
Who owns what?
And how decisions actually get made day to day.

That’s why implementation isn’t documentation.
It’s system design.

When teams skip this step, they end up “re-implementing” the same tool every 18 months.

When they do it well, the CRM stops being a project and starts becoming infrastructure.

Not because the software changed.
Because the business finally got clear.

There’s always something new emerging in the AI landscape. The key right now is to stay AI Curious and approach challenges with an AI First mindset.

If you are embracing this approach, you are "keeping up."

The reality is that everyone is engaged in learning, so continue that journey, and you will achieve long-term success.

In our daily practice and conversations, we all find ourselves in this space as operators today. Embrace the excitement, have fun, and let go of the stress associated with it. 

^ sorry if it’s your board creating this undue pressure just remember the part above while your getting pressured

Some very common January conversations we have:

“We’re forecasting off spreadsheets because we don’t trust HubSpot.”
“Sales and marketing numbers don’t match.”
“Our CRM grew organically and now it’s chaos.”
“We want to layer in AI, but our data is a mess.”
“We need better reporting before hiring more reps.”

None of these are edge cases.
They’re signs of growth.

The problem is waiting too long and letting frustration pile up.
The solution is slowing down just enough to fix the foundation.

Last Black Friday nearly broke me.

Not because sales were bad.

Because they were TOO GOOD.

$37,426 in revenue.
342 orders.

My best day ever.

Then January hit...

"CHARGEBACK DISPUTE: Order #1294"
"CHARGEBACK DISPUTE: Order #1301"
"CHARGEBACK DISPUTE: Order #1358"

One after another.
Like dominoes falling.

I didn't understand what was happening until I analyzed the patterns:

Orders slightly above my average ($110-150)
All paid with different credit cards
All shipped to freight forwarders

Professional fraudsters had targeted my store.

In desperation, I called a Shopify expert who asked:

"Are you using Shopify Protect?"

That conversation saved my business.

I discovered a completely free fraud protection system built directly into Shopify that:

➜ Automatically identifies high-risk orders
➜ Covers 100% of eligible fraudulent chargebacks
➜ Reimburses even the chargeback fees

The banking executive I spoke with admitted:

"Most merchants lose 5-10% of holiday revenue to sophisticated fraud rings."

A story about how a 30-minute hack transformed an entire marketing strategy.
Last quarter, I was working with an e-commerce brand bleeding subscribers. 
Their opt-in rates were DEAD
(averaging a pathetic 2.3%)
Then we deployed the most controversial conversion tactic: 
👉 The *urgency* timer

Here's exactly what happened:
Before Timer:
Opt-in rate: 2.3%
Subscribers/Month: 437
Revenue impact: Minimal

After Timer: ⏱️
Opt-in rate: 7.6%
Subscribers/Month: 1,892
Revenue impact: +$47,300/month

Why does this work?
Two simple reasons:
1. Humans are wired to avoid LOSING something
2. Scarcity triggers immediate action

Most marketers are leaving MASSIVE money on the table by not understanding psychological triggers.

I was sitting in a coffee shop when an e-com founder broke down in frustration.

"I've tried everything," she said. 

"Ads, influencers, redesigns—nothing works."


If this feels like you, you are playing a losing game. 

You're burning money because you don’t see the invisible battlefield of conversion optimization.

Let me show you what’s really happening behind the scenes:

Most founders don't realize:

- Your conversion rate isn’t just a number—it’s the heartbeat of your business.
- It’s driven by customer psychology, not just design tweaks.
- Every 0.1% life matters MORE than you think

Meaning:

❌ More traffic isn’t the answer.
✅ Higher conversion rates are.

Think about it—if your store is leaking sales, sending more traffic is like pouring water into a leaky bucket. 

Fix the leak first.

Here’s how a small conversion lift changes everything:

1) Starting Point:

Conversion Rate: 2%
Sessions per Month: 32,600
Average Order Value: $120

2) Optimized Potential:

Conversion Rate: 2.90%
Additional Monthly Revenue: $19,560

(that’s a brand-new Tesla every single month 🚗)

In just 1 year...

Total additional revenue is $234,720 📈 

(a free revenue stream you’re leaving on the table 😔)

Last summer, I noticed a terrifying trend:

"Sorry, I forgot I had items in my cart."

This message kept popping up in our abandoned cart emails.

It wasn’t that people didn’t want our candy—it was that they got distracted and never came back.

Here’s how we fixed it. 👇🍬

Instead of panicking, I got curious.

I personally reached out to 132 abandoned cart customers.

🙅♂️ Not with automated emails.
🙅♂️ Not with discount codes.

But with genuine questions about why they left.

Their responses revealed the truth:

41% simply "forgot"
27% were comparison shopping
18% got distracted mid-purchase
14% had payment concerns

What did I realize? 

Most weren't saying "no" - they were saying "not yet."

So I built a system.

A simple Shopify abandoned cart setup that felt personal, not pushy.

Results after 60 days:

43% recovery rate (industry average: 10%)
$22,483 in recovered revenue
Customer loyalty scores up 28%

One simple way to:
🤑 increase CTR from 2.50% to 2.70%
🤑 boost Add to Cart from 10% to 12%
🤑 reduce Cost per Purchase by $8.53

Here’s the $3.1 million secret most e-com founders never realize

"I'm spending $100K on ads monthly, but I'm barely breaking even."
Sound familiar?

Most founders see advertising as a cost. 
I see it as a strategic chess game.

Here's how I did it:
“THE MICRO-CONVERSION MULTIPLIER METHOD”

Step 1: Creative Refresh Strategy
- Rotate ad creatives every 72 hours
- Use 3 variations per ad set
- A/B test visual vs. video content
- Implement scroll-stopping hooks in first 3 seconds

Step 2: Targeting Refinement
- Narrow audience by:
 * Purchase behavior
 * Detailed interests
 * Lookalike audiences (1-3%)
- Remove underperforming audiences weekly

Step 3: Landing Page Optimization
- Reduce page load time under 2 seconds
- Create clear value proposition above the fold
- Add social proof (reviews, testimonials)
- Implement urgency triggers
- Optimize mobile experience

Step 4: Conversion Path Breakdown
- Simplify checkout process
- Reduce form fields by 40%
- Add multiple payment options
- Implement trust badges
- Create exit-intent popups

My clients results after implementing this to their sites:
✅ CTR Increase: +0.20%
✅ Add to Cart: +2%
✅ Cost per Purchase: -$8.53
💰 Revenue Impact: $60K additional monthly

That drop at the end? 
It made us $155,558 in 10 days 🔥📈
What looks like failure actually revealed our biggest opportunity.
The 10-day journey that changed how I view sales data forever...

Day 1-8: Steady sailing
~$20K daily revenue
3,615 orders flowing
5.76% conversion rate

Nothing exciting, right?
Then February 9th hit. The graph took a nosedive. 
Most managers would panic.
But here's what everyone missed:
Despite the drop, we were UP:

• Sales: +62% vs last month
• Orders: +42% growth
• Conversions: +9% higher


That "scary" drop? 
It came after we RAISED prices.

The result?
Lower volume BUT higher profits.

Before: Lots of small orders
After: Fewer but bigger purchases

What we discovered were our power days:
Early month = High volume
Mid-month = Steady performance
End period = Quality buyers

BUT the most shocking part?
This pattern repeated for 3 months straight.

Bonus:
Here’s our 3-action plan that worked:
1) Focused ads on high-value days
2) Adjusted inventory for pattern
3) Matched support staff to peak times

Results:
$155K+ revenue
62% growth
A happier team

P.S. Next time your graph dips, look closer. 
The story might surprise you.

I once spoke with an ecom founder who spent $100,000 on ads every month.
His conversion rate? 1.89%.
His operating profit? Barely $20K.

He thought he had a traffic problem.
He actually had a conversion problem.

The biggest mistake? 
👉 Focusing only on top-of-funnel traffic while ignoring the leaks in the funnel.

Here’s what happens when you fix your funnel instead of just spending more on ads:

By making small BUT strategic changes:
✅ Increasing CTR from 2.5% → 2.7%
✅ Boosting Add-to-Cart rate from 10% → 12%
✅ Improving Cost Per Purchase from $37 → $28

Revenue jumped from $2.4M to $3.1M per year.
Profit skyrocketed from $20K to $382K.

All without increasing ad spend. 😉

Why Gordon Ramsay would HATE HelloFresh 

If Gordon Ramsay reviewed HelloFresh, he’d probably call it:

❌ "Lazy cooking"
❌ "No real skill involved"
❌ "Pre-measured ingredients? Are you joking?"

And you know what? 

He’d be right.

But that’s exactly why HelloFresh is a marketing genius.

A year ago, I tried HelloFresh out of curiosity.

I was expecting high-end, restaurant-quality meals. 

Instead, I got:

✅ Pre-chopped veggies
✅ Step-by-step instructions
✅ Foolproof cooking

It wasn’t "real" cooking. 

It was cooking for people who don’t want to cook.

And that’s where HelloFresh wins.

They didn’t market to chefs. 

They marketed to busy people.

Their website, ads, and messaging make it stupidly clear:

✔️ No meal planning
✔️ No grocery runs
✔️ No thinking—just follow the steps

If they tried to impress food snobs, they would’ve failed. 

Instead, they focused on the people who just want good food without the effort.

Most brands make the mistake of trying to please everyone.

HelloFresh? 

They embraced the criticism and leaned into their audience.

Ramsay would hate it. 

But their customers love it.

And that’s why they win.

Why professional dog trainers HATE this subscription box

A friend of mine is a professional dog trainer.
When I mentioned a certain wildly popular dog subscription box, he rolled his eyes.

❌ "It’s ruining dog training."
❌ "People are rewarding bad behavior."
❌ "They’re just stuffing random toys and treats in a box!"

And honestly? 
He’s not wrong.
But that’s exactly why this brand is a marketing god.
I looked into it. 

Their entire pitch is:
✔️ Surprise toys & treats every month
✔️ Personalized for your dog’s size & chewing habits
✔️ Hassle-free, delivered to your door

Notice what’s missing?
❌ No mention of training
❌ No talk about behavior correction
❌ Nothing about discipline

Because their audience isn’t full of professional trainers. 
It’s dog owners who just want to spoil their pets.

This is where most brands mess up.
They try to be "technically correct" instead of speaking to what their audience actually wants.
This brand knows its customers don’t care about strict training guidelines. 
They just want their dog to be happy.
And that’s why it works.

The experts might hate it. 
But the customers? 
They can’t get enough.

Why IKEA Executives lose sleep Chairish’s genius strategy

A few weeks ago, I was looking for a new chair.

I checked IKEA first—affordable, modern, easy to find.

But something felt... off.

Every piece looked the same.

Mass-produced. 
Generic. 
Lacking personality.

Then I stumbled upon Chairish.

And suddenly, I wasn’t just shopping for a chair.

I was looking at one-of-a-kind pieces with character, history, and craftsmanship.

This is why Chairish keeps IKEA executives up at night.

IKEA sells affordability and convenience.

BUT Chairish sells exclusivity and storytelling

(something no flat-pack furniture can compete with)

Their secret?

✔️ A marketplace of vintage & designer furniture
✔️ Limited availability (scarcity = desire)
✔️ A brand that makes furniture feel like an investment, not an impulse buy

Most brands race to the bottom on price.

Chairish flipped the script.

They made people crave uniqueness instead of settling for mass-produced.

They turned furniture shopping into treasure hunting.

And that’s why they’re converting like crazy.

That notification still makes my stomach drop:

"CHARGEBACK NOTICE: Transaction #47293"

Three years ago, I woke up to 7 of these.

My biggest sales day ever...

Completely wiped out.

I called my mom in tears.

"We can't pay rent this month."

Then a fellow store owner messaged me:

"Have you activated Shopify Protect yet?"

I hadn't even heard of it.

15 minutes later, everything changed:

6 of 7 chargebacks covered
$12,764 reimbursed
My business saved

The craziest part?

This protection was sitting in my Shopify dashboard THE ENTIRE TIME.

Free.
Unused.
Hidden in plain sight.

Most store owners have no idea it exists.

Today, I get chargebacks like everyone else. 

But I haven't paid for a fraudulent one in 2 years.

🎁 I've created a complete step-by-step SOP for activating and maximizing Shopify Protect.

Don't lose your hard-earned profits to fraudsters.

I failed 3 times before I cracked the e-commerce profit code. 
Here's what most "gurus" won't tell you:
Your conversion problem isn't about traffic. 
It's about TRUST.
In my last 5 years working with 47 e-commerce brands, I've discovered a pattern that separates 7-figure stores from struggling shops:

Most founders think customers buy products. 
WRONG.

Customers buy:
➜ Solved problems
➜ Emotional relief
➜ Identity validation
➜ Social proof
➜ Perceived value

Here’s my “Trust Conversion” Framework:
1) Prove you understand their EXACT problem
2) Show tangible results (not just promises)
3) Remove ALL purchase friction
4) Create a narrative bigger than the product

Perfect example was:
How we took a fitness supplement brand from $50K to $387K monthly by redesigning ONE landing page.

To reduced checkout steps by 62%, we:
- added real customer video testimonials
- created risk-reversal guarantee
- simplified product value proposition

Who's serious about building a real business, not just another Shopify store? 👇

We made $1.4M by breaking every "expert" rule 🤭
That spike in December?
It wasn't Black Friday.
It wasn't a viral moment.
It wasn't even planned.

Here’s the story about how ignoring conventional wisdom led to our biggest breakthrough...
• $1.4M in sales
• 34,092 orders
• 6.16% conversion rate
• 83% growth

But here's what everyone missed:
Look at that December dip.
Traditional advice: "Panic and slash prices."
What we did: Nothing.

Here's why...
1. Every "dip" was followed by sustained growth
2. Our baseline kept rising.
3. Small steady spikes > Big, sudden spikes for long-term success.

We deliberately ignored what others were doing:
• Skipped the "peak" shopping days
• Avoided the major sales events.
• Focused on steady, sustainable growth.
• Built long-term patterns, not just short-term gains.

Marketing "experts" called us crazy.
Then the numbers proved us right.

What happened next?
While competitors saw a post-holiday crash, we saw:
• 30% increase in baseline
• 62% customer retention
• 40% decrease in refund rates

Stable growth beats viral moments.
Every. Single. Time.

Question for you:
When did going against "expert" advice actually work better for your business?

P.S. Next time someone tells you to "maximize peak seasons," show them this graph.

Last week, a first-time visitor landed on our client's store.
She almost left within 10 seconds.
Why? 
A popup jumped at her face the moment she arrived.

I see this mistake EVERYWHERE.
We immediately fixed their strategy:
- No popups for the first 20 seconds.
- Let visitors breathe. 
- Let them explore. 
- Let them get comfortable.

The results?

37% increase in signups. 
24% drop in bounce rate.
$14,300 more revenue last month alone. 💸

One tiny change. 
Massive impact.

I believe most stores get this wrong because they're too desperate for emails.

But here's what I know after ___ years in e-com:

Respect earns more subscribers than aggression.

Confession: I used to be the WORST popup creator.
My first e-commerce store? 
Visitors ran away faster than free samples disappear at Costco.
I was that marketer bombarding people with popups every single click. 
Desperate? Absolutely.
Then I learned the magic of strategic patience.
Here's the game-changing insight most marketers miss:
❌ Your popup isn't about YOU. 
✅ It's about THEM.
Imagine this: A visitor lands on your site. 
They're exploring, curious. 
You DON'T assault them with a signup form.
Instead, you wait. 
7 strategic days.
Why 7 days? 
Because people need space to fall in love.

The results shocked me (and my clients too):
- 42% higher engagement rates
- 3x more genuine email signups
- Visitors who actually WANT to hear from you

The day I discovered shopping could actually be fun
Endless scrolling. 
Frustrating clicks. 
Another boring online store?

Not Farfetch.

1) Navigation that finds your likes in one snap.
Farfetch understands how you shop:

- Crystal-clear categories

2) Curation
This isn't shopping. 
This is fashion storytelling.

- Every item is carefully selected by a trendy fashionista

3) Searchbar’s strategic placement in the top right corner makes it easily accessible.

4) Product pages that converts

What makes a great product page you ask?
- Stunning, high-res images
- Trusted brands (Simon Miller, Jacquemus)
- Transparent pricing
- Easy heart-save feature


Farfetch isn't just an online retail store.
It's a personalized fashion experience.
Retail, reinvented. 🔥

Brooklinen is not selling sheets. 
They’re selling eight hours of psychological freedom.

2 months ago, I needed new bedsheets.
I wasn’t looking for luxury. 
I wasn’t looking for high thread counts.

I just wanted something comfortable.
without spending hours comparing fabrics.

Then I saw Brooklinen’s tagline:
“The Internet's Favorite Sheets”

And suddenly, I was hooked.
💭 What makes them the favorite?
💭 Are they really that good?

I had to find out.

At that moment, I wasn’t just buying sheets.
I was buying better sleep, less stress, and pure comfort.

Brooklinen understands something most brands miss:
❌ People don’t buy products. 
✅ They buy better versions of themselves.

Their marketing doesn’t obsess over cotton blends or weave types.

They focus on what their customers actually want:
✔️ A peaceful night’s sleep
✔️ Stress-free comfort
✔️ A small luxury that feels like self-care

And that’s why they win.
Most brands focus on what they sell.
The best brands sell why it matters.

So, Brooklinen isn’t just selling sheets.
They’re selling the feeling of finally exhaling after a long day.

And that’s why people happily pay the premium.

I nearly shut down my business last January.

3 months of shrinking sales.
No clue why customers weren't buying.
44 sleepless nights wondering what went wrong.

Then my mom asked the question that saved everything:

"Why don't you just ask the people who put stuff in their shopping cart why they didn't buy it?"

I dove into Shopify's backend and discovered a feature hidden in plain sight: 

➜ Abandoned Cart Recovery.

The results shocked me:

• 67% of my shoppers were abandoning their carts
• $34,967 in products sitting in digital limbo
• All recoverable with a 5-minute setup

Most store owners never activate this feature because they don't know it exists.

Within 30 days of implementation:

• 31% recovery rate
• $10,840 in recovered revenue
• Zero additional ad spend

🎁 THE 5-MINUTE RECOVERY BLUEPRINT:

I've turned this game-changing discovery into a step-by-step SOP.

Last month, my best friend called me at 2 AM.

His voice was shaking.

"I just got hit with SEVENTEEN chargebacks in one week. I might lose everything."

As someone who has been deep in e-com for years, I knew exactly what was happening:

His store had been targeted by a sophisticated fraud ring. 😨

But instead of giving him the standard advice, 

I taught him my unusual "Blue Dot System."

Years ago, I developed a method to visually organize Shopify orders by protection status:

Blue dots = Protected orders
Red dots = At-risk orders
Yellow dots = Pending protection

Sounds simple, right?

What happened next shocked him:

⤷ He identified 43 high-risk orders before they shipped
⤷ Prevented $11,873 in potential chargebacks
⤷ Saved his entire Q1 profit margin

The method works because it transforms complex fraud data into ➜ a simple visual pattern our brains can instantly recognize.

Most store owners are overwhelmed by order management. 

They don't realize Shopify has built-in tools to PREDICT which orders might be fraudulent.

🛡️ I've documented my exact order filtering protocol in a step-by-step SOP.

I tracked every emotion my customers felt for 365 Days 
Last January, I started a crazy experiment.
I tracked every single emotion our customers expressed across:
• 3,472 support tickets
• 892 reviews
• 1,156 social media comments
• 467 feedback emails

What I discovered shocked our entire team.
❌ 72% of negative emotions weren't about our product
➜ They were about how we made people feel

Let me explain...
Story time 👇

Sarah left a 1-star review
Product worked perfectly.
So why the bad review?
Our automated email made her feel "like just another number."
That hit hard.
