Mitcham · Outer east
Shopify store stuck? Get someone who can look at it properly — from Mitcham or online.
I'm Jus. Based in Mooroolbark. Mitcham's close enough that on-site is normal, not a favour.
No agency layer. I open the store, tell you what's costing sales, and quote the work. You decide.

Where the money leaks
You've got products people want. The site still feels like a brochure someone forgot to finish.
Common mess: navigation that hides half the range, collection pages with no hierarchy, product copy that reads like a warehouse label. Mobile gets treated as an afterthought even though that's how most people shop.
I fix the path from "interested" to "paid". Or I rebuild when the theme's done.
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 AUD10–14 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/hrMost 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 AUD2–3 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 AUD6–8 weeks
Why work with me instead of an agency
You get me, not a roster. That keeps the timeline honest and the feedback loop short.
Twenty years building sites. Shopify for the bit that matters now — independents through to brands like JB Hi-Fi and FXD Workwear.
I'll push back if the brief is wrong. Better an awkward conversation than a store that still doesn't sell.
A few stores I've worked on
- Kakawa Chocolates
Old store, great product. Rebuilt in 3 weeks. Conversion up 64%.
- Tools Warehouse
Traffic was there. Buying wasn't easy. Conversions up 39%, pages 55% faster.
- The Wholefoods Refillery
Most traffic was mobile. The store wasn't. Revenue up 18% after a mobile-first redesign.
How we start

Mitcham's roughly fifteen–twenty minutes from Mooroolbark. We can meet at your place, or stick to a call and screen share. Same deliverables either way — video walkthrough plus a written fix list.
AUD. No lock-in. Audit refund if I can't give you a clear plan.
Common questions
Do you visit businesses in Mitcham?
+
Yes. From Mooroolbark it's a short hop along the Whitehorse corridor. Happy to come on-site if that helps. Most of the work still happens in Shopify admin.
Who am I actually dealing with?
+
Me. Jus. Studio Elephant. You talk to the person doing the work. Audits start from $699.
Can you improve an existing Shopify store?
+
That's most of the work. Product pages that don't convert, themes patched past their useful life, checkout that fights people. If a full rebuild isn't the right move, I'll say so.
What happens when I get in touch?
+
I reply within a business day. Tell me about the store. 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.
