Every strategy designed around your ideal customer

Every Shero digital strategy starts with identifying and documenting your ideal customer profile. Campaigns, content, and channel decisions are all made in reference to who you are actually trying to reach and convert.

Analytics

Strategy checked against your own numbers

We review the strategy with you against the numbers in your analytics reports. Budget then moves toward the channels that brought in orders.

Channels managed as one integrated program

Shero manages SEO, paid media, email marketing, and CRO as a single integrated growth program for clients who want all four channels working from the same strategy.

"Working with Shero has been an exceptional experience. Their team's dedication to innovation, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering outstanding results is truly commendable. Shero's expertise has been instrumental in achieving our goals, and I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking excellence in their projects."

Rene Davis, Director of Digital Commerce, Event Network

Fragmented channels do not grow a business

Many eCommerce brands have channels but no strategy. An SEO agency, a paid media team, an email vendor, and a developer who handles CRO when asked. Each reports on their own metrics, optimizes for their own numbers, and rarely talks to the others. The result is a brand that spends more per acquisition each year and wonders why growth has slowed.

Why brands plan their digital strategy with Shero

Shero writes the strategy and can carry out the work, so your plan is delivered by the team that wrote it. Here is how that works.

01

Strategy included in every replatform

A replatform without a strategy is an expensive way to end up with the same problems on a new platform. Shero aligns migration decisions with commercial objectives before any technical scope is agreed.

02

Reports designed around revenue

Monthly reports cover channel-attributed revenue, conversion rates, cost per acquisition, and return on ad spend. Every marketing client gets that report each month, plus a quarterly business review that covers decisions and next steps.

03

Designed around your ideal customer

We define your ideal customer profile first. Every channel decision, content piece, and campaign target is made in reference to who you are actually trying to reach. Companies that market to everyone tend to convert fewer of them.

04

Strategy and execution under one roof

Shero can advise on strategy or handle execution across SEO, email, paid, and CRO. Many clients prefer having the same team handle both so nothing gets lost between planning and delivery.

05

Data-led from the start

We audit your existing analytics, channel performance, and competitive position before recommending anything. The strategy is based on your data and your market.

06

All channels aligned to one goal

SEO, paid media, email, and CRO are coordinated from a single strategy so every channel works toward the same goals. Paid media and SEO are managed together for brands that want acquisition channels coordinated with the same revenue objectives.

Baby Sleep Courses

Taking Cara Babies

Since 2013, Taking Cara Babies has helped parents build better sleep routines. With a custom CMS holding back growth and plans to sell physical products, they chose Shopify Plus and brought in Shero Commerce to handle a complex migration, unifying physical and digital sales on one platform.

Industrial Safety Solutions

Justrite

JustRite Safety Group is a leading manufacturer of workplace safety products with roots going back to 1906. The brand partnered with Shero to merge four separate Magento stores into a single multi-store megasite, allowing customers to shop across all brands with one shared cart. Organic traffic doubled almost immediately after launch and continued to grow steadily over the following six months.

Justrite
Candy and Party Favors

Just Candy

Just Candy sells personalized candy and party favors from a catalog of more than 16,000 SKUs. On VTEX, the brand had a rigid and expensive tech stack, a dip in sales caused by user experience issues, and site management that depended on heavy custom development. Shero moved the full catalog to Shopify and kept personalization and performance intact. Indexed pages increased 66% after the migration.

Leadership Education

CCL - Center for Creative Leadership

Shero moved the Center for Creative Leadership, a global nonprofit, from iApps to Magento 2. We integrated Microsoft Dynamics 365 and VitalSource, set up international selling, and improved the store and checkout on every device.

CCL - Center for Creative Leadership

When to move to Shopify Plus

We recommend Plus once you pass about $1M a year in sales, or sooner for B2B, checkout changes or selling in several countries.

  • Checkout

    Custom checkout logic with Checkout Extensibility and Functions.

  • B2B

    Full B2B with company accounts, catalogs and terms.

  • Expansion stores

    Up to 10 storefronts in one contract.

  • Support

    Priority support and a lower card rate.
