Named means named.
We name a brand only when that brand has signed off on the specific metrics, quotes, and positioning. When we cannot get explicit permission, we write "a clean beauty brand we worked with" and keep the archetype framing honest.
Forty-six deep dives on how we take DTC brands past seven figures on Shopify. Problem, approach, stack, metrics. Three are named clients. The rest are industry and city archetypes built from patterns across our portfolio.
Type any phrase - title or content and we'll show you exactly where.
Every case study here shows the operating model we ran, the tools we used, and the numbers that followed. Where a client gave permission, you get their real name and real metrics. Where they did not, you get an honest industry archetype. Three clients let us name them: Emani, Big Game Sports, and Noble Paris. The archetypes are patterns we have watched repeat across multiple clients in the same vertical.
All three gave us permission to publish their names, their metrics, and the operating changes that moved the numbers. No redactions. No blurred revenue figures. Behind the work sits our standing as a Shopify Plus partner and our public Trustpilot record across 70+ reviews.
MRR at month 24. +520% growth. Subscription share 42%. Shopify Plus build, Klaviyo retention, MoCRA-ready compliance.
MRR. +340% growth. Performance-led rebuild, Amazon parallel ops, BFCM engineering. Shopify Plus migration from Magento 2.
MRR. +280% growth. Sampling-first acquisition, discovery sets, editorial content system, Shopify Markets across US, EU, UK.
Each archetype is a pattern we have run with multiple clients in the same vertical or city. The revenue ranges are the bands the pattern typically operates in. Industry archetypes group by what brands sell. City archetypes group by operating context: timezone, regulation, and talent pool all shape the playbook. Disclosure framing follows the FTC endorsement guidance. Names are illustrative, the patterns are real, and a banner sits above the fold on every archetype page.

We hold every case study to four rules before it publishes. Each one has to pass all four. The rules borrow from schema.org's Article type conventions for transparent attribution, and from the editorial discipline in Google Search Central's E-E-A-T guidance for case study credibility.
We name a brand only when that brand has signed off on the specific metrics, quotes, and positioning. When we cannot get explicit permission, we write "a clean beauty brand we worked with" and keep the archetype framing honest.
Revenue figures, growth percentages, and conversion rates come straight from the client's Shopify, Klaviyo, or attribution dashboards. Serious inbound prospects can see the screenshots under NDA. No composite metrics.
Every case study names the designer, engineer, growth lead, or strategist on our side who did the work. When the client had a strong in-house operator, we name them too.
Each case names the operating model that produced the result: Clean Shelf Method, Collection Method, or Cold Chain Method. We never claim a single tactic or app changed the business.
We turn down the majority of inbound. Four filters tell us early whether the math works for both sides. They come from real unit-economics patterns Shopify documents in the State of Commerce report, plus the subscription-retention benchmarks Klaviyo publishes annually.
$50K per month minimum, trending up. Below that, you are a product company, not a growth company. We would be the wrong vendor.
40%+ contribution margin after landed costs and fulfilment. Below that, growth spend compounds losses.
The repeat-purchase curve actually curves up. If organic retention is flat, the product is still being discovered.
A founder or senior stakeholder available for a weekly operating review. Growth work is a partnership, not a handoff.
Every case study above came out of the same eight service lines. Each link below goes deeper: scope, methodology, outbound authority references, FAQ, and the team that ships the work.
