Storefront performance is conversion. Programmatic SEO is your unit-economics weapon. Lifecycle email is your retention floor. Sage Ideas builds the engineering layer underneath your DTC brand — Shopify Hydrogen or custom Next.js, Stripe and Shop Pay, Klaviyo flows, and the Core Web Vitals discipline that compounds into measurable revenue lift.
Hero videos that block render, third-party scripts that ship 800KB of JS, image sizes that ignore device pixel ratio. We profile the real waterfall, prioritize LCP-blocking resources, and ship a budget that the next marketing team cannot accidentally blow.
4 long-form articles per month (2,000+ words each, with original research) Editorial calendar 4–8 weeks out SEO brief per piece (target keyword, search intent, related entities) Distribution kit per piece: LinkedIn post, X thread, newsletter blurb
This route does not pretend the engagement includes paid promotion / boosted posts (separate budget), outbound link building, video production (use a video partner — we can recommend), customer interviews or original research outside what’s in scope per piece.
