Blackburn · Outer east

Shopify help for Blackburn stores that need someone local — and straight with you.

I'm Jus. I build and fix Shopify stores from Mooroolbark. Blackburn's an easy run if you want me on-site.

You get one person. I look at the store, we talk, I send a plan. No pitch deck, no lock-in.

What's usually broken

Ads are running. Organic's ticking over. The bank account still looks quiet.

I open the store and find the same pattern again and again: a homepage that never says what you sell, product pages that list specs and skip the objections, mobile layouts that shove the buy button under a pile of fluff.

Whitehorse Road traffic means people compare fast. If your store hesitates, they buy elsewhere. I strip out the friction so the sale has a chance.

How I can help

Four services. Fixed prices. Unsure which one? Tell me what's going on — I'll point you at the cheaper option if that's enough.

  • Conversion audit

    I go through your store page by page, record a video walkthrough, and give you a written list of what to fix first. Best starting point if you've got traffic and weak sales.

    From $699 AUD
    10–14 days

  • Updates and theme customisation

    Specific changes — layout, product page, speed, a feature the theme almost does. You tell me what you need, I quote it, you approve, I do it.

    $130 AUD/hr
    Most jobs: 1–3 hours

  • Theme setup and launch

    A premium theme, set up to take orders. Makes sense if you want it looking professional without paying for a custom build.

    From $2,400 AUD
    2–3 weeks

  • Custom store build

    From scratch, when a theme can't do the job. You own the code. Built so people can buy, not just so it looks good in a screenshot.

    From $7,500 AUD
    6–8 weeks

Why work with me instead of an agency

Agencies pad timelines. I don't. You talk to me, I do the work, we finish.

I've been building websites for 20 years. Shopify for the recent stretch — 200+ stores, from independents to brands like JB Hi-Fi and FXD Workwear.

I'll also tell you when to wait. No traffic? An audit won't magically invent buyers. I'll say that.

What working together looks like

Use the contact form. I reply within a business day. Audits are $699 and usually start within a week.

From Mooroolbark to Blackburn is roughly twenty minutes without drama. We can meet there, or keep it on a call. You still get a video walkthrough and a written list either way.

AUD pricing. No lock-in. Audit refund if I can't give you a clear plan.

Common questions

Do you visit businesses in Blackburn?

+

Yes. I'm in Mooroolbark — about twenty minutes along the line toward the city. Happy to come on-site if you'd rather walk through the store together. Plenty of the work still happens in Shopify admin either way.

Who am I actually dealing with?

+

Me. Jus. Studio Elephant. No account manager, no junior, no offshore handoff. Audits start from $699.

Can you fix or customise my Shopify theme?

+

Yes. Tweaks and updates are $130/hr. Launching or redesigning on a premium theme starts from $2,400. If the theme can't do what you need, that's when a custom build makes sense.

What happens when I get in touch?

+

I reply within a business day. Tell me about the store and what's annoying you. I'll tell you what I'd do next — often a $699 audit, sometimes a quote for a specific fix.

Tell me what's going on with the store.

I'll reply within a business day with a straight recommendation — audit, a small fix, or a build. No pitch deck.
