UX and Creative Design Services

If your store looks good but still does not convert, the problem is usually how customers experience it. We start with discovery workshops, user research and your data to find the real problems before we design anything. Then we design the fixes and develop them in Shopify ourselves.

Dual login

Separate B2C and B2B logins at Camera Source

We set up Camera Source's Shopify store with a password login for retail shoppers and a passwordless login for B2B dealers, plus dealer registration and new product request forms.

48%

Of 1,000 Shopify stores pass mobile Core Web Vitals

In our 1,000-store speed benchmark, only 48% passed all three Core Web Vitals on mobile. Small tap targets, slow product images and multi-step checkouts are where mobile buyers give up, so that is where our UX work starts.

"Thankfully, we were teamed up with the good people over at Shero Commerce for our move over to Shopify, along with the entire site redesign. From first meeting, to final deployment, we knew we had made the right decision. The team was very professional, extremely knowledgeable, but also friendly."

Marc Frankel, Founder & CEO, Long Island Watch

UX design for where your store loses customers

Before we design anything, we hold workshops with your team on your brand and your customers, in person or remote. Then we look at the data: analytics, heatmaps and session recordings. That is how we find the problems that cost you sales, like a checkout with too many steps, a product page that hides the add-to-cart button on mobile, or navigation that makes sense to your team but confuses your customers.

Every Shopify store starts with the same features. Design is what makes yours easier to buy from, and that comes from knowing how your customers think, compare and decide.

Brands tend to spend on technology and traffic first. If the experience is wrong, neither one converts, so we judge a design by how the store performs.

Why eCommerce brands choose Shero for UX and design

UX agencies deliver recommendations. We deliver recommendations and then implement them in Shopify. Here is how that makes a difference.

01

Targeted fixes or full redesigns

Not every UX problem requires a full redesign. Targeted improvements to product pages, checkout, and mobile navigation often produce faster revenue impact than rebuilding from scratch. We recommend the right scope based on your timeline, budget, and where the biggest drop-offs are.

02

Workshops on your brand first

In workshops, in person or remote, we work with your team on what makes your brand different: your positioning, your voice and the value you offer. Every design decision after that gets checked against it, so your store, emails and ads all say the same thing.

03

Design and development on one team

Our UX designers and Liquid developers work together on every project, with no handoff to another agency. What was designed is what goes live, and problems caught in development go back to design before anything reaches production.

04

Checkout UX specialists

The highest-value UX work in eCommerce happens at checkout, not the homepage. Shero designs and tests checkout flows using Shopify's Checkout Extensibility framework. Custom checkout optimization is available as a standalone service for brands with specific checkout conversion requirements.

05

Your customers mapped, then measured

In the same sessions we map your customers' goals and frustrations, then check them against your analytics to see where buyers hesitate. We verify your analytics and reporting before any redesign starts, because changing a page based on bad data does more harm than leaving it alone.

06

Mobile-first design by default

We design for mobile first and desktop second, because phones are where your customers shop and where conversion problems show up first. We check the real mobile split in your analytics before we start.

Process

How a UX and creative design project works

We look at how real buyers use your store first, then design the fixes and develop them in Shopify.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We hold recorded workshops and study session recordings, heatmaps and checkout drop-off to see how real buyers use your store.

  2. 02

    UX/UI audit

    We audit your home, category, product, cart and checkout pages and rank fixes for what breaks buyer confidence.

  3. 03

    Channel mapping

    We map how buyers move between email, social, paid ads and your store and find where the experience breaks.

  4. 04

    Creative design

    Our creative team designs graphics, email layouts, social visuals and ad creative with conversion as the goal.

  5. 05

    Testing, development and UAT

    We test designs with real users before sign-off, then our developers put them into your Shopify theme and you sign off in UAT.
