Herbert Timpson
You want the person you talk to doing the work in your store, not a team you never meet.
Herbert Timpson is a done-for-you Shopify expert based in Colorado City, Arizona, working with Shopify stores across the United States. He logs into each store's Shopify, Klaviyo and Google accounts and does the SEO, email, Merchant Center and AI search work himself, so stores that already sell earn more orders without paying for each one. He created The Traffic to Sales Method.
Who does the work?
On Saturdays he packs orders for a direct to consumer brand. The rest of the week he works inside live Shopify stores, logged in to their Shopify, Klaviyo, Google Search Console, GA4 and Google Merchant Center accounts. He makes the fixes. You do not have to learn them.
Every result he reports comes from the store's own Shopify reports, with the dates and the source named. Each one shows the stretch before the work, the best stretch after, and what the numbers do not prove.

What does he do, and what does he not do?
He does:
- Log into your store’s Shopify, Klaviyo and Google accounts and make the changes himself.
- Fix product and collection pages so they can rank on Google.
- Get best sellers published and approved in Google’s free listings.
- Rebuild Klaviyo email flows and check that they send.
- Measure whether AI engines name the store, question by question.
- Report every result from your own Shopify reports, with the dates.
He does not:
- Sell a course, coaching or a checklist for you to carry out.
- Keep your accounts: you own every one, and every login.
- Promise rankings, AI citations or sales numbers.
How does an engagement work?
- A thirty minute call about the store and how much of the month the ads are carrying.
- A Traffic to Sales Check of Shopify, Klaviyo, Search Console, GA4 and Merchant Center, read together.
- Fixes in order, biggest dollars first, done inside your accounts. You keep every account and login.
- Results counted from Shopify's own reports, as a before and an after, with the source and the dates.
Which services does he do, and what does each fix?
| Service | Stage | What it fixes |
|---|---|---|
| Shopify store audit | Traffic to Sales Check | Tools that disagree about what sold |
| Shopify SEO | Get Found | Collection and product pages that cannot rank |
| AI search | Get Found | A store AI engines cannot reach or never name |
| Google Merchant Center | Get Found | Best sellers missing from free listings |
| Klaviyo email | Get Names, Get Orders | Flows that say live and send nothing |
What does he do in each tool?
| Tool | What he does there |
|---|---|
| Shopify | Reads the sales by referrer and sessions reports, rewrites product and collection pages for search, and publishes products to the Google & YouTube channel |
| Klaviyo | Checks every flow's sends against list size, fixes triggers and filters, and builds the core flows and sign-up forms |
| Google Search Console | Reads which pages are indexed and which searches bring impressions and clicks |
| Google Merchant Center | Gets best sellers approved in free listings and fixes disapprovals at the source |
| GA4 | Checks purchases against Shopify and how much traffic arrives untagged |
| ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude | Asks a fixed list of buyer questions each month and records mentions and citations |
What does done for you mean?
It means he makes the changes himself, logged in to your accounts: the product pages, the email flows, the product feed and the reports. You are not handed a course, a checklist or a slide deck to carry out, and you keep every account and login.
How does he report results?
Every result he reports is written the same way:
- The stretch before the work, as the baseline.
- The work that shipped, with dates.
- The best stretch after, as the result.
- The source of every number, such as Shopify's own reports.
- What the numbers do not prove.
- How you can check the same thing on your own store.
What has he written?
46 guides for Shopify store owners, each with the reports to open and what to look for, grouped by the question they answer:
- Why is my Shopify store not making more sales? (8)
- How does a Shopify store get found on Google? (8)
- How do products get into Google Shopping and free listings? (5)
- How do AI engines find and name a Shopify store? (7)
- Is my Shopify email actually working? (8)
- Which email platform should a Shopify store use? (6)
- Are the ads worth what they cost? (4)
What results can he show?
One direct to consumer Shopify store: $9,110 in the 30 days before the work began and $23,532 in the 30 days about three months in. The full receipts, including what they do not prove, are in the case study.
What will he not claim?
- A guaranteed ranking, citation or sales number.
- A result he cannot trace to a real store's own reports.
- A skill, credential or certification he does not have.
