Looks great! You all did an excellent job—fast turnaround and high quality. Thanks so much!

Before working with us, Foreign Waters did not yet have an established ecommerce website. The brand’s digital presence and sales infrastructure were built from scratch during the engagement, meaning there was no historical website performance to benchmark against prior years.
Key Challenges
No existing ecommerce website
No historical performance data
Need to build sales infrastructure from the ground up
- Absence of a functional ecommerce website
- No conversion data or optimisation baseline
- No structured sales assets or performance tracking
Need for aligned design, development and marketing processes
Methodology
End-to-end ecommerce build combining design, development, strategy and performance analysis.
Strategic Rationale
With no existing website or historical data, the priority was to implement a solid ecommerce foundation capable of driving conversions and enabling scalable growth.

Key Strategies
Building the website from scratch
Designing conversion-focused sales assets
Implementing clear development and marketing workflows
Continuous monitoring of Shopify insights to guide decisions
The strategy evolved from initial website launch into continuous optimisation, using short-term performance comparisons (last 90 days vs previous period) to guide iteration and improvements.
