Shopify E-commerce Launch & Growth Specialist — Faith-Based POD Brand

Shopify E-commerce Launch & Growth Specialist — Faith-Based Brand

Part-Time | Remote (Philippines) | $8–12 USD/Hour

About Us

We're a North American-based, faith-driven brand launching an e-commerce business featuring meaningful products inspired by Christian heritage, faith, and storytelling.

We're looking for a resourceful, commercially minded Shopify specialist who can help us attract customers, generate sales, and build a sustainable online business.

We have a growing product catalog, a small team, and a clear mission. What we need is someone who knows how to turn a promising store into a business that actually sells.

This is not a typical virtual assistant or store administration role. We're looking for someone who takes initiative, makes sound decisions, and enjoys building something from the ground up.

What You'll Do

• Acquire customers: Develop and execute practical experiments to attract our first customers and generate sales with a limited marketing budget.
• Improve conversion: Optimize Shopify merchandising, product discovery, product pages, and the customer journey.
• Build marketing systems: Improve email marketing, customer acquisition, retention, and performance tracking.
• Apply e-commerce economics: Understand product pricing, POD margins, shipping costs, and customer acquisition costs.
• Collaborate with our team: Work alongside existing POD operations and content specialists to align product launches, marketing, and growth initiatives.
• Take ownership: Identify the highest-value priorities, execute independently, measure results, and recommend improvements.
• Work efficiently: Use AI and automation tools where they meaningfully improve execution.

What We're Looking For

Essential

• Hands-on Shopify experience, preferably launching or growing a small DTC brand.
• Practical experience acquiring customers or improving e-commerce sales, with examples of what you personally accomplished.
• Understanding of merchandising, conversion optimization, and marketing fundamentals.
• Familiarity with print-on-demand business models and their economics.
• Strong initiative, problem-solving ability, and independent judgment.
• Excellent written English and remote collaboration skills.
• Genuine appreciation for our Christian mission and values.

Bonus: Printify or Printful, Meta Ads, SEO, email marketing, Shopify Flow, and AI automation.

We value demonstrated results and good judgment more than a long list of software skills.

Compensation & Opportunity

• $8–12 USD/hour, depending on experience.
• Approximately 10 hours/week initially, with flexible scheduling.
• Paid trial project for shortlisted candidates.
• Opportunity to grow responsibilities and hours as the business develops.
• Direct collaboration with the founder and a small, mission-driven team.

How to Apply

Please answer these three questions with specific examples rather than general advice.

1. Customer Acquisition

Tell us about an e-commerce business where you personally helped attract customers or increase sales. What did you do, what was the budget, and what results did you achieve? Approximate or anonymized figures are fine.

2. Shopify & POD Experience

Describe your hands-on Shopify experience and any experience with print-on-demand. What have you personally built, improved, or launched?

3. Launch Challenge

Imagine you're joining a faith-based Shopify brand with a growing catalog, almost no sales, and a limited marketing budget.

You have 10 hours per week. What is the ONE customer-acquisition experiment you would run first?

Explain who you would target, how you would reach them, what you would test, and how you'd measure success.

Please also include your expected hourly rate, weekly availability, and a brief note about why working with a Christian mission-driven brand interests you.
