Background

CORHOUSE, founded by Cordila “Cor” Jochim, offers a holistic approach to personal and spiritual development, empowering individuals to achieve their divine potential and engage in world-changing missions. Cordila approached us for assistance with launching a Shopify site to release her flagship product, the From the Core Workbook Series. With no prior experience on the Shopify platform, Cordila entrusted us to transform her vision into a functional, user-friendly digital storefront that reflected her brand ethos.

Challenge

The project presented several unique challenges:

• Brand-Driven Design: CORHOUSE’s identity needed to shine through in every detail of the site, demanding custom design solutions.
• Dynamic Content: The From the Core Workbook Series required the use of Shopify metafields to display tailored product content.
• Podcast Integration: Cordila wanted her newly launched podcast featured prominently, with an easy-to-manage setup for adding new episodes without developer support.
• Scalable Solution: The site needed to be user-friendly for both customers and Cordila’s team, ensuring she could independently update the site post-launch.

Solution

We developed a Shopify website that met CORHOUSE’s needs while aligning with Cordila’s holistic brand values. Here’s how we approached the project:

1. Brand Integration:
   We worked closely with Cordila to bring her vision to life, incorporating her branding and design elements seamlessly into the Shopify theme. From typography to color schemes, every element was crafted to resonate with her audience.

2. Dynamic Product Pages:
   Using Shopify metafields, we created flexible templates for the From the Core Workbook Series. This allowed Cordila to highlight unique features and content for each product dynamically, enriching the customer experience.

3. Podcast Section Development:
   To showcase Cordila’s inspiring podcast, we built a custom section within the Shopify theme. This feature not only allowed her to highlight individual episodes but also offered an intuitive upload process, empowering her to manage the content without ongoing developer assistance.

4. User-Friendly Backend:
   Beyond a beautiful frontend, we focused on creating a backend that was simple for Cordila to use. She and her team can now handle day-to-day updates and content changes with ease, ensuring the site remains dynamic and relevant without incurring additional developer costs.

5. Mobile Optimization:
   Recognizing the importance of mobile traffic, we ensured the site was fully optimized for mobile devices. The result was a seamless browsing and purchasing experience, regardless of the user’s device.

Outcome

The CORHOUSE Shopify site launched successfully, reflecting Cordila’s mission and aesthetic while offering a smooth customer experience. By focusing on design flexibility and ease of management, we empowered Cordila to take control of her digital presence confidently.

This project embodies our commitment to creating Shopify sites that are not only visually stunning but also highly functional and empowering for our clients. Whether you’re a first-time Shopify user like Cordila or an experienced ecommerce brand, we tailor our approach to meet your unique needs.
