On this episode of The Muslim Professionals Podcast, I sat down with Adam Ali, CEO and founder of The Uncommon Agency — a multi-channel Shopify Plus powerhouse working with global brands like Rare Beauty and Liquid Death.We got real. Adam shared his journey from growing up in a mixed-faith household in one of Liverpool's roughest neighborhoods, to building one of the most respected agencies in the Shopify ecosystem. We talked about the power of partnerships, scaling an agency without outside funding, breaking into new markets like the GCC, and why Muslims need to stop sleeping on the CPG wave.There's wisdom here for anyone navigating identity, building from nothing, or trying to figure out how to turn hustle into a high-impact business. This one's for the underdogs.
Denis Dyli is the Founder and Principal of Uncap, a Shopify B2B eCommerce agency. He has led the company to become a Shopify Premier Partner, delivering over 350 eCommerce projects and replatforming more than 100 Shopify Plus stores. With over 15 years of experience in eCommerce development and strategy, Denis helps B2B and B2C sellers optimize their eCommerce platforms. In this episode… For DTC brands expanding into B2B, legacy platforms can create significant friction. Outdated technology, slow feature deployment, and mounting maintenance costs often hinder growth, especially when buyers expect seamless, digital-first experiences. How can companies modernize their B2B operations to stay competitive and meet evolving customer expectations? According to digital commerce expert Denis Dyli, DTC brands with Shopify Plus stores can activate B2B capabilities by enabling features like custom pricing, net terms, and B2B storefront templates. He recommends updating themes to support new Shopify accounts and tailoring the logged-in buyer experience to streamline ordering. By leveraging native functionality and apps like Gorgias and Klaviyo, DTC brands can create polished, scalable B2B portals without a complete replatform. In today's episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant hosts Denis Dyli, the Founder and Principal of Upcap, to discuss the future of B2B eCommerce on Shopify. Denis talks about digital transformation in the B2B space, B2B companies that would benefit from Shopify's capabilities, and the impact of tariffs on the digital commerce landscape.
In this insightful new installment of the Global e-Commerce Leaders Podcast, host Michael LeBlanc reconnects with Jim Okamura, Co-Founder of the Global eCommerce Leaders Forum (GELF), to discuss the future of global retail, the evolving mission of GELF, and how the community is responding to today's rapidly changing international marketplace. They begin by reflecting on the legacy of the late Kent Allen, a fellow GELF Co-Founder whose passing deeply impacted the organization and the broader e-commerce sector. Jim shares stories of Kent's passion for connecting people and forging solutions, highlighting how Kent's genuine commitment to global growth laid the groundwork for GELF's unique blend of community and expertise.Throughout the conversation, Jim explains the necessity of reimagining GELF's programming and events calendar to address the latest complexities in worldwide commerce. From evolving trade regulations and tariffs to the shifting needs of both established and emerging brands, he stresses the importance of gathering global retail leaders more frequently to tackle pressing concerns in real time. This rethinking involves a deeper focus on segmentation—recognizing that seasoned international brands need more advanced strategies, while newcomers require foundational guidance on cross-border logistics, market entry, and localized marketing.Listeners will learn about planned workshops, digital channels, and in-person meetups designed to foster constructive dialogue and knowledge sharing. Jim previews how GELF aims to partner with complementary associations—such as those in logistics, language translation, and supply chain—to further expand the ecosystem of global practitioners. By diving into topics like cross-border wholesaling and franchising, along with direct-to-consumer e-commerce, GELF is poised to address a full spectrum of global commerce opportunities.Finally, Michael and Jim look ahead, encouraging community members—ranging from enterprise veterans to rising DTC players—to share feedback, collaborate on new initiatives, and join a reinvigorated conversation about global retail expansion. The episode concludes with a heartfelt dedication to Kent Allen's memory, reminding listeners of the spirit of connection and innovation that underpins the Global eCommerce Leaders Forum.

Liz Krupka, Owner of Nomadd Marketing, joins Retention Chronicles to discuss email marketing and optimizing email templates Great email marketing has to parallel a brand's tone and great customer experience. This is what Liz and her team focus on. Liz and Mariah talk about how some ecommerce merchants have lost creative aspects of their marketing due to the shift towards performance marketing. The key is that these brands aren't following what originally brought their customers to know and love their brand. So, some emails become too sales heavy, which end up turning customers away. Liz proposes that instead, brands focus on what drove their audience and hone in on that. Find out which emails are the most successful that appeal to their audience and optimize those rather than fully redoing their emails. Liz also talks about email templates for ecommerce brands and how to compare templates accurately. Brands must take into account the email copy, email creative, email offerings, the seasonality, historical data, the economy, and more. There are also considerations brands should make when considering becoming a promotion-heavy brand vs one that does not run promotions.

Joel Reichert, four-time ecommerce owner and co-founder of Copper Pearl, Maven Thread, and Woven Nook, joins Retention Chronicles to discuss selling on Amazon vs. Shopify and running ads on Amazon vs Meta Joel started his career in ecommerce holding a financial role at a tech company and founded his first brand, Copper Pearl, in 2015. In 2.5 years, they grew the business to a 7 figure brand and sold the company in 2018. In 2017, he founded his two current brands, Maven Thread and Woven Nook. He's also grown these brands to be a 7 figure company. Joel tells Mariah about how he started these ecommerce businesses with an investment of $10k and started selling on Amazon storefront. Joel explains that starting out on Amazon helped launch their product to help make their product make sense and then they transitioned into selling through their own website on Shopify. There are a lot of differences between Amazon ads and Meta ads, such as the barrier to entry for ecommerce beginners and the rate of tweaking needed for each platform. From Joel's perspective, starting on Amazon is the way to go. Joel and Mariah also discuss how customizable DTC products can be for specific cohorts of customers. Ecommerce also allows for there to be flexibility in logistics. This podcast is sponsored by Malomo, a leading shipment and order tracking platform for Shopify and Shopify Plus ecommerce brands.

Dallas Parsons, Senior Director of Marketing at Mixhers, joins Retention Chronicles to discuss adding value to the ecommerce customer experience. Dallas started at Mixhers as a customer success manager, so she knows exactly what their customers care about most after her first-hand experience. She's since transitioned into their marketing department to focus on customer retention, email marketing, designing the customer experience, implementing marketing technology, loyalty programs, & more. Like many ecommerce brands, Mixhers continues to focus on customer retention as customer acquisition costs (CAC) continue to rise. They chose to funnel their energy towards what was working for them - email marketing. Dallas and her team decided to define an email marketing strategy that helped educate their customers. They did this by enabling a product quiz around which supplement would be the best for that customer based on their answers. At face value, some ecommerce brand operators would argue that this isn't a smart marketing approach as it could add friction to the buying experience. But, the Mixhers team saw that it actually helped their customer's buying experience and resulted in higher revenue. With more confidence in what product they were buying, Mixhers customers benefited largely from this addition. Dallas tells Mariah about this decision and much more on this newest episode of Retention Chronicles.

Harry Willis, Director of Partnerships and Business Development at Relo, joins Retention Chronicles to discuss increasing repeat orders and subscriptions for Shopify CPG brands. For Shopify and Shopify Plus brands, it can be difficult to know how to exactly tailor your customer experience when trying to motivate your customers to purchase more with you. Decisions like which day to target, which product to cross sell, who to show something to, and so many others are difficult to make without data and predictive analytics. Harry WIllis, Director of Partnerships and Business Development at Relo, explains how Shopify brands are building their customer experience with the smartest tools around and how they're hurdling the biggest retention challenges of the year. For instance, one problem brands face is with increasing reorders and cross sells is that different products have different reorder times. But with product and customer tendencies, Shopify merchants are working around this with predictive analytics and making sure that their email marketing and SMS marketing is well-placed based on that order.

Jay Davis, Founder of Pillow Cube, Cold Case Ice Cream, & Creatably, joins Retention Chronicles to discuss where to start when founding an ecommerce brand. Jay has had a vast background in marketing and he focuses on one thing - what's not going to change in 10 years, and how he can focus on that. Jay and Mariah talk about how easy it is to get caught up in marketing trends even if they might not be the best thing for your business. Making the (wrongful) assumption that traditional marketing of the past isn't as effective as our current age of digital marketing can lead to massive missed growth opportunities. After founding many brands, Jay's biggest advice to other founders of products is to know your finances and if people will want your product. Jay shares his favorite test to run with friends and family to see if they enjoy a new product. We don't want to spoil the details, but it's one of those moments where you'll reframe how you're going about your customer testing. He also gives insight into some of his favorite customer retention plays. Jay also discusses 2024 macroeconomics of the ecommerce industry and what founders should be cautious about.

There's a lot of tech stack consolidation in ecommerce right now as brands are striving for efficiency to get more out of their tech. Emerson tells Noah and Mariah about how ecommerce brands should really be focusing on retention and reverse logistics. Emerson speaks to the .3-.5% of packages that have an issue with shipping and how brands traditionally have to eat that sunk cost, but with Malomo and Corso brands can mitigate shipping protection and costs while increasing the customer experience. Brands can have full control over their refund policies, but few brands actually take the opportunity to increase their revenue in the post-purchase experience, like offering a gift card instead of a full return or providing cross and upsells. This podcast is sponsored by Malomo, a leading shipment and order tracking platform for Shopify and Shopify Plus ecommerce brands.
