Who We Are

Freshwater is a small and mighty team of coders, creatives, and problem solvers led by me, Mike Lazarus.

 

I've been been building Shopify websites for over a decade for clients big and small, across almost every industry imaginable. After doing it solo for a long time, I recently brought on a few expert designers and developers to offer even better service to our clients.

 

From launching new brands to growing existing ones, we pride ourselves in taking the time to understand each client's unique situation and craft a custom plan to maximize their potential.

SHOPIFY FROM START TO FINISH

AESTHETICS + FUNCTION

Just like the shoes they sell, we wanted Commbi to be a modular and beautiful place to shop.

 

HOW IT WORKS

Using, a combination of video, testimonials and custom infographics, we break down the science of Commbi so customers know exactly what they are sliding into.

 

CUSTOM BLOG / JOURNAL

We created custom blog template to highlight the influencers shouting Commbi from the rooftops and to give it more of an elevated, editorial presence.

 

THOUGHTFUL UPSELLS + BUNDLES

We advised the founders to cross/upsell products and created custom integrations that encourages bundling and allow upsells directly in the cart.

A BRAND REFRESH, WHOLESALE SITE AND PRODUCT PAGE OPTIMIZATION

VISUAL REVAMP

We've optimized the layout for maximum impact and well as applied the brand refresh to every element of the site.

 

ENHANCED PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT

Seasonal collections and products are now front and center.

 

CONVERSION FOCUSED NAVIGATION

This isn't art; it's science. We custom designed menus drive traffic directly to product pages and then sales.
