The Shopify Store Audit
Two weeks. $1,950. Every leak in your store, ranked by what it costs you.
The problem
Your store works — mostly. But it’s slower than it was, the app bill grows every quarter, your team fixes the same things by hand every week, and no two systems agree on inventory. Each problem looks small. Together they’re quietly taxing every order.
You could hire an agency to look — but agencies audit with a proposal in mind. You could ask your developer — but they built it. What you need is an independent expert who has run a store like yours from the inside and has nothing to sell but the answer.
What I check
- Speed & app bloat — what’s actually slowing your store (usually apps: 6–10 of them adding 2–3 seconds), which ones earn their keep, which to cut.
- App & tool costs — every subscription, what it does, what it overlaps with. This section alone often covers the audit fee.
- Conversion blockers — checkout friction, mobile experience, and the A/B tests worth running first.
- Manual work — what your team does by hand that software should, and what automating it would save.
- Data accuracy — whether Shopify, your ERP, and your 3PL actually agree on inventory, orders, and revenue.
- Risk flags — GDPR/CCPA exposure, single points of failure, and anything one bad day could break.
What you get
A written report, not a slide deck. Every finding gets a dollar impact, an effort estimate, and a priority — so you know what to fix first and what to ignore. Plus a 60-minute walkthrough call. The roadmap works with any developer; nothing in it is gated behind hiring me.

Two weeks. No meetings required.
- 4
Report + walkthrough.
Findings ranked by dollar impact, and a call to plan what’s next.
Price
$1,950, fixed.
No hourly meter. No proposal hidden in the findings. If your store is genuinely clean, the report will say so.
FAQ
My store just feels slow. Do I need a whole audit?
If speed is your only concern, I can scope a standalone speed & app-stack review — ask me. But slow stores usually have sibling problems (app costs, conversion friction), and the audit prices all of them at once.
We’re not on Shopify Plus. Is this for us?
Yes — if you’re doing roughly $2M+ a year. Below that, the findings rarely justify the fee, and I’ll tell you before taking your money.
Will you need access to our systems?
Read-only access to Shopify and your main tools. I sign an NDA by default, and I’ve run GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA compliance programs — your data is handled accordingly.
Our agency says everything is fine.
Your agency built the system, so they’re grading their own homework. I have no stake in the previous decisions — that’s the point.
Can our own developers implement the fixes?
Yes. The report is written so any competent developer can execute it.
