Testimonials & Case Studies

Client Stories

We came to Michelle after challenges with a previous web developer and spending months trying to execute a vision, and having to start from the beginning again. Within a day or two, Michelle had built our beautiful website for us – we were overwhelmed with gratitude to see our vision brought to life when we were close to giving up! We absolutely love what Michelle has created for us!

We received a website that we are very proud of, and showcases our products in an authentic way consistent with our branding. We were able to launch our website within days of providing her with the information to create it – so impressive.

I acknowledge and appreciate your hard work, effort and attention to detail with the Deus project over the 12 months. It’s been great working alongside you on Deus, albeit a rather challenging client at times, your approach with dev has been refreshing. Looking forward to continuing working with you on all things Deus in the future.
Jay Woods

Creative Director, Deus Ex Machina

Michelle is a very diligent web developer. She is thorough and takes the time to properly understand the needs and technical aspects of the project. Michelle is prompt with her client communication and sticks to project timeframes and deliverables. I can attest to the quality of Michelle’s work and expect to continue working with her into the future.

James Cook

Co-Founder, Debtplacer

Mermaid Devs were very easy to work with, completed our task within budget and on time. The GWP works like a charm and the availability filter is exactly what we requested, very stoked!

We had a bit of complicated logic for our GWP functionality, so a standard app wouldn’t suffice. Luckily Michelle was able to develop a better solution – a fully custom GWP to help increase AOV and customer experience.

Destiny Flaherty

Digital Marketing Manager, Vissla

We are seeing some major speed and usability improvements. The website is looking modern and fresh, while still feeling high quality. As the new theme is so versatile, it works with all the latest Shopify updates. Working with Michelle on this project is going incredibly well.

Industrie Tapware

Thanks so much for the brilliant website you’ve built – it is so unique. You have been so efficient from the beginning, and gone above and beyond. From assisting to finding the right colour palette, to making every small adjustment we wanted – we love what you have created and have had so many compliments!
We wanted something different, and that’s what we got! Integrating accessibility was very important to us, and Michelle made sure that was front of mind.

Custom gift with purchase & cart progress bar feature

Shopify | Vissla AU

Vissla came to us with the request to add multiple order value incentives to their cart, encouraging shoppers to qualify for free shipping or free gifts the more they spent on specific product collections. They also needed a way for shoppers to select the size/colour of their gift, without leaving the cart.

Vissla had previously tried using different apps from the Shopify app Store, but none fully met their needs. They specifically desired a custom solution built directly into their theme to provide a seamless, reliable experience.

We implemented the free shipping and gifts with a combination of custom theme code and automatic discount codes. Gift rules can easily be configured via the theme customiser. Customers can see current incentives in their cart while shopping, in the form of progress bars.

Vissla have since successfully launched their first gift with purchase campaigns and increased their AOV.

Migration from WordPress/WooCommerce

Shopify | Recovery Project

Peter and Amanda had started the Recovery Project as a side hustle, but it quickly grew much more successful than they had expected. They decided to migrate from WordPress/WooCommerce to Shopify for easier inventory management, customer relationships, email marketing and starting to scale their paid media marketing strategy.

We selected and customised a premium Shopify theme to their brand and website needs, built a custom Recovery Zone Builder Section, migrated all of their data and helped with a smooth transition.

Their new Shopify store has been growing steadily and simplified their processes immensely.

Product calculator & custom design implementation

Shopify | Thermosoft Australia

LVI Thermosoft offer a range of European style, oil-filled radiators to Australian customers. Their sales process had traditionally been highly manual, providing custom quotes over the phone for each customer’s unique home and preferences.

We were able to streamline this process by providing a custom calculator that helps customers determine their heating requirements and suitable products, making it easy to find the right type and number of products for their situation. The calculator results include product recommendations that can be purchased immediately, as well as the option to send the room details and results to their email.

This was implemented as a custom script in LVI’s Shopify theme with no external app requirement. It also included a custom integration with their CRM software Ortto, allowing for custom event and data tracking.
