Ernie here. Based in Perth, running an AI native paid media studio.
Frank, the AI surveillance layer I built, watches every account 24 hours a day. The team executes. I run strategy. The cycle is faster, tighter, and catches things weekly cycles miss.
I do not do SEO, social media management, content marketing, or 30 minute discovery calls.
I do run Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Reddit, server-side tracking, GA4, GTM, Looker Studio, landing pages, and CRO. All under one operator.
๐ Top 1% Expert-Vetted Google Ads & PPC Strategist Globally
๐ Ranked 1st in Australia for Job Completions, Earnings, and Expert-Vetted Status
๐ 15 years building paid media systems, 800+ Upwork jobs completed
๐ Studio at keywordadv com - case studies, methodology, and field notes from running real accounts
๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐
I work on a percentage of ad spend retainer model. The percentage scales down as the account grows. The smaller the budget, the higher the percentage, because smaller accounts still need the same brain behind them. The bigger the budget, the lower the percentage, because the system scales without scaling our cost to you.
Frank, the AI surveillance layer, the team, the strategy, the landing pages, the tracking, the creative, the reporting. All of it scales with you. You do not buy a tier. You buy the studio.
One off audits, account rebuilds, and tracking implementations are scoped fixed price, outside the retainer model.
Send a message with your current monthly ad spend and I will share the exact percentage that fits your account.

Getting traffic but not enough sales?
I help Shopify and ecommerce brands find where their website is leaking revenue, then turn analytics, UX evidence and customer behaviour into practical conversion improvements.
My background includes CRO and ecommerce optimisation work across Samsung Australia, KitchenAid and MyState Bank, covering product pages, mobile journeys, landing pages, cart friction, GA4 analysis and A/B testing.
I can help with:
โข Shopify CRO audits
โข Product page, cart and checkout reviews
โข Mobile UX and conversion friction diagnosis
โข GA4, Hotjar and Clarity analysis
โข Landing page optimisation
โข A/B testing ideas and experiment roadmaps
โข Prioritised conversion recommendations
My approach is evidence-led. I look at where users drop off, what creates hesitation, what the data supports, and what should be tested or fixed first.
A few examples of my work:
โข Improved a digital acquisition funnel by simplifying a key application step, contributing to a 10% uplift in completed applications.
โข Worked on ecommerce optimisation across Samsung Australia and KitchenAid, including mobile navigation, product detail pages, offer visibility and purchase journeys.
โข Built CRO roadmaps using analytics, UX review, behavioural data and post-test analysis.
Iโm a good fit if you already have traffic and want clearer answers on why more visitors are not converting.
The goal is simple: fewer guesses, clearer priorities and more customers from the traffic you already have.

His analysis was not only clear and extremely well-structured, but packed with deep,
mobile-first insights that immediately highlighted the real reasons behind our conversion drop-off"
"Marko really helped me understand what was holding my website back from getting more sales. He went through everything step by step, explained what could be improved, and suggested practical changes that actually made sense for my business"

Fast.
With over 15 years in digital marketing and eCommerce, Iโve worked across every part of the DTC funnel - from the first click to the final checkout and post purchase flows.
I'll help you increase sales by optimizing CR, AOV, RPV, and LTV while reducing CPC.
Whether itโs a homepage thatโs not selling, product page that's not converting, or email flows that underperform - Iโll give you a clear, actionable plan to improve performance and boost sales.
๐ What you will get:

Most Shopify stores are overcomplicated and underperforming. I help DTC brands simplify, fix what's holding them back, convert more without increasing ad spend, while future proofing for growth.
Whether you're running a bloated custom theme that locks your team out of every change, or a paid theme that's never been optimised for conversion, I come in, cut through the complexity, and build stores that work harder for your brand.
What I help with:
โ Store audits: identifying exactly what's holding your store back, then implementing the fix
โ CRO implementation: structured conversion design applied across the entire customer journey
โ Shopify re-theme: moving from custom or outdated themes to clean, conversion-focused paid themes
โ Shopify store builds: built for performance from day one
โ Klaviyo setup and essential flows: email that convert from launch
I've worked with over 50+ brands across six, seven, and eight figures. From exciting startups to established DTC names.
10 years in Shopify and ecommerce. 100% Job Success. Certified Shopify Partner.
If you're not sure what you need, start with a conversation. I'll tell you honestly what will move the needle.
"10/10 - Would highly recommend. We knew what we wanted to achieve with this project, but werenโt sure how to go about it. Luckily Samโs expert knowledge of CRO practises, and swift implementation, reassured us that we made the right hire. We intend to use Sam for all our future Shopify projects."

Your product has a conversion problem. I find it. Then I fix it.
I am a UI UX Designer with 5+ years of experience delivering pixel-perfect Figma designs for Shopify brands, SaaS platforms, mobile apps, and high-converting landing pages. I have worked across eCommerce, SaaS, and consumer mobile, translating complex product requirements into clean, business-driven interfaces that actually perform.
Why Clients Hire Me Over Other UI UX Designers
Most UI UX designers hand you beautiful screens. I hand you screens tied to outcomes. Every UI UX Designer Figma deliverable I produce starts with understanding your user, your funnel, and where drop-off is happening. Then the design work begins. I am a Shopify UX specialist who has redesigned storefronts for conversion. I am a mobile UI UX designer who maps every tap to user intent. I am a SaaS UI UX designer who removes cognitive load from dashboards. The result is design that earns its keep.
What I Deliver
UI UX Designer Figma: High-fidelity prototypes, wireframes, user flows, design systems, and developer-ready Figma files with auto-layout, components, and full handoff documentation. Every file is clean, organized, and built for teams to implement without guesswork.
Shopify UI UX Designer: Homepage, product page, collection page, and checkout flow design optimized for conversion. Custom Shopify theme UI, mobile-first layouts, CRO-driven structure, and UX strategy for eCommerce brands scaling on Shopify and Shopify Plus.
Mobile UI UX Designer: iOS and Android app design in Figma. User flow mapping, onboarding sequence design, core task flows, dark and light mode, accessibility compliance, and developer handoff ready for React Native or Flutter teams.
SaaS UI UX Designer: Dashboard design, admin panels, B2B product interfaces, onboarding flows, and design systems for SaaS platforms. Information architecture, user role mapping, and data visualization built to reduce churn and accelerate feature adoption.
Landing Page Design: Conversion-focused landing pages for SaaS, eCommerce, and lead generation. Responsive layouts, CRO-backed visual hierarchy, and Figma handoff for Webflow, WordPress, or custom development teams.
UI UX Designer for Web Design: Responsive web design across desktop, tablet, and mobile. Component-based Figma systems, interaction design, and full UX strategy from wireframe to final handoff.
My Process
Phase 1 - Discovery: I study your product, your users, and your competitors. User flows and information architecture defined before any visual work begins.
Phase 2 - Wireframing: Low to mid-fidelity wireframes in Figma validating structure, content hierarchy, and navigation logic.
Phase 3 - UI Design: High-fidelity screens with full design system, color palette, typography, and component library.
Phase 4 - Handoff: Developer-ready Figma file with auto-layout, responsive breakpoints, interaction specs, and asset export. Usability review included.
Results
Shopify eCommerce brand: Homepage and product page redesign in Figma. Mobile-first layout, CRO-focused structure. Pixel-perfect developer handoff with auto-layout components delivered on time.
Mobile app: Wireframe to high-fidelity UI UX design in Figma. Mobile-first hierarchy, CRO-focused structure, clean typography, and complete developer handoff documented.
SaaS dashboard: Clean, logical dashboard design for a SaaS product. Not overdesigned. Functional, scannable, and built for real users.
Who I Work With
SaaS startups and product teams. Shopify and eCommerce brands. Marketing and creative agencies. Founders launching or redesigning digital products.
Tools
Figma, Adobe XD, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Balsamiq, FigJam, Shopify Theme Editor.

If your website gets traffic but users arenโt taking action, the issue is usually deeper than the UI.
I help businesses understand why users drop off, and turn those insights into practical experiments that improve conversion rates.
I work with small/medium businesses and early-stage SaaS teams to improve conversion rates through UX research, audits, and experimentation.
Rather than jumping straight into redesigns, I focus on understanding whatโs actually happening in the user journey; where users hesitate, get confused, or drop out entirely.
My typical process looks like this:
โข UX and conversion audit of key pages and/or flows
โข Identification of friction points and missed opportunities
โข Clear, prioritised A/B test ideas based on impact and effort
โข Experiment setup and analysis
โข Actionable recommendations based on results
Iโm particularly well-suited to teams who:
โข Are getting traffic but not seeing results
โข Feel something is โoffโ with their UX but canโt pinpoint it
โข Want an unbiased, analytical perspective rather than opinion-driven design
Iโve worked across UX, CRO, and SEO, which helps me connect user behaviour, intent, and performance, especially for businesses investing in growth.
If you want a clear, honest assessment of whatโs holding your site back, feel free to reach out with a brief description of your goals.
