(01) WHY CHOOSE US
A creative agency promises one thing. A dev agency delivers something else. Nobody owns the handoff, and the results suffer. We take care of the entire process, from building your website to creating, launching, and optimising your ads. Every decision is made with growth in mind, so your website and advertising work together to turn attention into results.
The same claims, proof, and design language used across your ads, landing pages, and PDP.
When your ads stop performing and people ignore your landing page, we look at both together. We quickly find the leak and fix what is getting in the way of your growth.
The work does not stop when our work is finished. We keep testing, learning, and improving the creatives and the website as we see what actually drives growth.
(02) HOW WE WORK
One team builds and improves your website. The other creates and optimises the creatives for your brand. Both teams work closely together, overcoming obstacles as they come up and making sure your creatives and website feel like part of the same experience.
Custom Shopify Plus builds, migrations from WooCommerce and Magento, and a CRO programme that keeps compounding after launch.

Product design and internal tooling
Internal dashboard redesigned around the workflows the team actually runs, not the ones the previous software assumed.
(05) CREATIVE
Static ads, UGC videos, B roll and landing pages, in the sizes and languages your campaigns need.
Most agencies make a few ads, polish them for weeks, and then wait to see what happens. If they do not work, you are back to square one.
You cannot find a winning ad if you do not test enough ideas. That is why we keep producing new creatives and let the results show us what works.
Every month, you get a new batch of creatives to test. We test different openings, messages and angles.
When we find a winning ad, we build on it, turn what worked into a strategy, and keep testing from there.
Fixed monthly quota
Shipped every month on a set cadence, not in a burst before each campaign
12+ Languages
Every concept localised by a native speaker, not a translation tool
Every Placement
9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 built from the same concept, not cropped
We wait for the numbers
An ad gets more budget when the results show that it is working, not just because it is slightly ahead and everyone is impatient
(06) WEBSITE CASE STUDIES
Custom Shopify Plus builds, platform migrations and multi-market localisation, maintained after launch.
(07) MARKETS
21+ MARKETS COVERED · ONE CREATIVE SYSTEM
Ecommerce localization means adapting one creative system per market, not translating it. Claims are rewritten for local regulation including EFSA rules, currency and pricing conventions are localised, and every language is handled by a native speaker rather than a translation tool. Video localization is handled the same way: the same concept filmed again with a creator in that market, or recut from footage you already have.
(08) HOW IT RUNS
01
Before we quote anything, we look at the last 90 days of your funnel, your store, your ads, your tracking, and your creative. The scope and price come from what we find, not from a template.
02
The website and creatives are built from the same brief, so the ad and the page are made to work together from the start, not as two separate pieces.
03
We regularly test new angles, hooks, and page variants. What does not work gets dropped, what works gets improved, and decisions are based on the results, not opinions.
04
When we find something that works, we adapt it for your other markets and use what we learned for the next round of CRO optimisation on your store. Then we test again.

Common questions about Shopify Plus builds, migrations, CRO, UGC ads and ecommerce localisation.
We are a Shopify Plus agency and ad creative studio based in Ljubljana, Slovenia. We build, migrate, and optimise Shopify Plus stores, and create the ads and landing pages that drive traffic to them.
Our web and creative teams work closely together, so the website and ads are built to work as one. We also run ongoing conversion rate optimisation and creative testing programmes and localise stores and creatives across 30 European markets.
More than 200 DTC brands trust us with their websites and creative.
A Shopify Plus agency builds and maintains stores on Shopify Plus, Shopify's enterprise platform.
You usually need Plus when a standard Shopify setup starts getting in the way. For example, you might need a more customised checkout, B2B and DTC on the same store, or separate storefronts for different countries, currencies, and languages.
If you do not need that level of flexibility, standard Shopify with a well-built theme is often enough. Paying for Plus only makes sense when the additional capabilities are worth it for your business.
Conversion Design is a certified Shopify Partner. We build and optimise stores on both Shopify and Shopify Plus.
Standard Shopify suits most brands. Shopify Plus adds checkout customisation, B2B wholesale price lists, multiple storefronts under one account and higher API limits. The practical trigger is usually one of three things: you need to change the checkout itself, you sell B2B and DTC from the same catalogue, or you run several country storefronts. If none of those apply, Plus is unlikely to pay for itself and a well-built standard Shopify store will do the same job.
At Conversion Design a theme-based Shopify Plus build starts at €5,600. Mid-range custom builds run €20,000 to €50,000, and headless builds start at €30,000. Shopify's own Plus licence is billed separately by Shopify. Cost is driven by three things: the number of unique templates, how much custom logic sits in the checkout, and how many markets launch at once. Scope and price are fixed before work starts, so the quote does not move mid-project.
A theme-based Shopify Plus build takes 6 to 8 weeks. Mid-range custom builds take 10 to 16 weeks and headless builds 4 to 6 months. A migration from WooCommerce or Magento adds 2 to 3 weeks for data and redirect mapping. In practice the schedule is set by how quickly product data and content arrive rather than by development, which is why the first week goes on a content inventory.
Yes. Conversion Design migrates stores to Shopify Plus from WooCommerce, Magento, Odoo and custom platforms. A migration covers products and variants, customer records, order history, and the part most migrations get wrong: URL redirects. Every old URL is mapped to its new equivalent before launch so existing search rankings survive the move, and Search Console is monitored after go-live to catch anything that slipped.
Yes. Alongside Shopify, we build content-led WordPress websites and WooCommerce stores when that platform is the better fit. As a WordPress and WooCommerce agency we handle design, custom theme and plugin development, WooCommerce store setup, and performance and conversion optimisation.
We increase conversion rate by fixing the specific leaks a store audit surfaces: benefit-first product pages, social proof above the fold, a friction-free mobile checkout, and faster load times, with every store shipping at 90+ PageSpeed on mobile at launch. Every change is then A/B tested against revenue. Your rate is recorded before the work starts and again 60 to 90 days after it lands, so the difference is measured rather than claimed.
The average Shopify store converts at about 1.4%. A healthy DTC store sits around 2.0 to 3.0%, and rates vary widely by industry, price point and traffic quality — a €25 supplement and a €2,000 sofa cannot be compared. The most useful benchmark is your own trend over time rather than a single number, which is why we record your rate before we start and again after launch.
Localising an ecommerce store means adapting it to the market, not simply translating the words.
The messaging, claims, pricing, currency, and creative all need to make sense locally. Claims may need to change to meet local regulations, pricing needs to follow local conventions, and the language should sound natural to the people you are selling to.
We localise stores and creative across 30 European markets, including Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Czechia, Hungary, Romania, the Nordics, and the UK.
Conversion Design works with DTC brands in supplements and health, beauty and skincare, food and drink, apparel and accessories, home and furniture, and consumer electronics. The common thread is not the product but the model: brands that sell direct, buy paid traffic, and need the store and the ads to move together. Supplements are a particular focus, because claim compliance differs in every EU market and that is where localisation earns its keep.
Yes, a lot of our clients are outside Slovenia. We are based in Ljubljana and work with DTC brands across 30 markets, including Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, the Nordics and the United States.
Performance creative is ad creative made to be tested rather than admired: static ads, UGC video, B-roll, landing pages and the angles and hooks behind them, produced on a cadence and judged on results. A traditional creative agency sells a campaign and a brand system. Conversion Design produces the assets and runs the testing programme, but does not buy media. You or your media buyer runs the budget; we make what goes into it.
Yes. Conversion Design produces UGC ads for ecommerce brands: we brief and source the creators, direct them against a tested angle, and edit what comes back into ad variants sized for every placement. Creators are matched to the market and the language the ad will run in, which is how the same product ships UGC across several European markets. The creators film; we brief, direct and edit. Product B-roll is cut from footage you already have, plus material we source where yours runs out.
UGC (user-generated content) is authentic-looking video or photo content made by everyday creators that a brand buys with full usage rights and runs as paid ads, rather than posts on the creator's own account. It works because it feels native on TikTok, Instagram and Meta and often outperforms polished studio ads for DTC products. It drives sales when it is scripted around a tested hook and paired with a matching landing page, which is how we produce it inside the creative retainer.
Yes. We produce AI video ads and AI UGC alongside creator-filmed UGC and B-roll inside the creative retainer. We use AI to generate and iterate on hooks, avatars and B-roll quickly, then keep every ad conversion-tested for Meta and TikTok. AI video is one lever in the mix, used when it beats filmed creative on cost, speed or performance, not novelty for its own sake.
Yes. Every creative is produced in the vertical 9:16 format for Instagram and Facebook Stories, Reels and TikTok, plus 1:1 and 16:9 where a placement needs them. Story and Reels ads are built mobile-first with a strong first-second hook, native pacing and captions, because that is where most DTC ad spend and attention now sits.
Creative retainers start at €3,200 a month on Core, €4,400 on Growth+ and €7,200 on Elite. That typically means 20 to 40+ new conversion-tested variations a month, allocated across static ads, UGC video, B-roll and landing pages as the previous month's testing dictates. Volume matters less than cadence: the programme is built to put a fixed number of new angles into test every month, so losing concepts are killed at confidence rather than on opinion.
