The Shopify studio for growing brands
Working with Megan Hodson has been a game-changer for Nuera Health & Wellness
We tasked her with redesigning our Shopify store, and she delivered more than just a beautiful site—she delivered a sales machine. Megan’s approach to design and customer flow completely transformed our user experience; the site is now intuitive, clean, and professional. But the most significant impact has been the bottom line. Since the launch, we have seen a marked and instant improvement in our conversion rates and sales. The return on investment has been fantastic. If you are looking for a developer who understands that great design should drive actual business growth, I couldn’t recommend Megan highly enough. She understands e-commerce strategy, not just aesthetics.
A Shopify expert
Her knowledge of Shopify’s technicalities and ability to create a visually stunning, functional store exceeded expectations. She’s patient, clear, and highly professional.
She's calm, quietly confident and wonderfully organised, and just "got" what I was trying to achieve
Working with Meg has been an absolute pleasure. She's incredibly intuitive and there’s such a calm, grounded energy about her that makes the whole process feel easy.
A pleasure to work with
It was an absolute pleasure working with Meg. She immediately understood what we were looking for and was approachable throughout the process.
She elevated our business to represent where we are today
We interviewed multiple design companies and from the moment we connected with Megan, we knew we had found someone who could elevate our business to represent where we are today. Megan came up with a detailed development plan and was very attentive. Nutmeg Design is highly professional and offers beautiful design ideas.
