About

The designer on the call is the developer in the code

Branding by Alex is a one-person studio. I design and build Shopify stores, Amazon listings, Klaviyo email programs and landing pages for ecommerce brands, and help them get found through SEO and AI search. You work with me from the first call to launch day, and after.

I started Branding by Alex in 2021, building sites and marketing for small businesses in Minnesota. Since then I’ve run digital marketing for EO Minnesota’s Entrepreneurs’ Rally, sold out events featuring Alex Rodriguez and Daymond John, and built Shopify stores and email programs for brands across the US. Today I work from New York.

In numbers…

How I work

Three things I won’t compromise on

1

One person, start to finish

No account managers or junior handoffs. The person who designs your store builds it, and answers your messages.

2

Design that has a job

Every page is designed around a decision a shopper needs to make. Pretty is the starting point, not the goal.

3

Yours when we’re done

Built on themes and tools your team can edit. You shouldn’t need me on retainer to change a banner.

Why a studio of one?

Good question…

Questions, answered

Still wondering about something? Ask me directly. I answer every message myself.

Is Branding By Alex an agency?

No, it’s me. I do the design, development and email work myself, and bring in a specialist only when a project needs one. You always know who’s doing the work.

What platforms do you work in?

Mostly Shopify, Klaviyo, Amazon Seller Central and Replo, plus WordPress and HubSpot. I design in Figma and use Search Console, GA4 and Microsoft Clarity to check what’s working.

How many projects do you take on at once?

A small number, so each one gets real attention. If I’m full, I’ll tell you when I can start rather than squeeze you in.

Where can I see reviews?

A few are quoted on this site and in the case studies. I’m happy to connect you with a past client too.

Sound like a fit?

I read every application myself.
