Intelligent Change

A bespoke Shopify Plus store for the brand behind the Five Minute Journal, with campaigns the team runs without a developer.

Intelligent Change sells beautifully designed products, and a template store would have let them down. I built a Shopify Plus theme from scratch around their photography and brand, with bundling and campaign tools the team runs themselves.

Intelligent Change makes the Five Minute Journal, used by more than three million people and featured in Vogue and Entrepreneur.

What it had to do

The store had to match the products, and do a lot of work behind the scenes.

  • A high design bar

    The photography and identity are refined. Anything that looked like a template would show.

  • Campaigns without code

    Tiered discounts, bundles and seasonal campaigns had to run without development work each time.

  • A growing, global range

    More products every season, and shoppers in several regions.

What I built, in order

I designed the build around how Intelligent Change presents its products, then handed the team the controls.

  1. An editorial theme

    Clean layouts, plenty of space and type that lets the photography lead, on every page.

  2. Product pages that explain

    Pages that tell the story of a routine, because people are buying a habit as much as a journal.

  3. Bundles and campaigns

    Flexible bundling and promotion logic, so the team sets up tiered discounts and campaigns themselves.

  4. Every region and device

    Navigation and the route to checkout built for shoppers in several regions, on desktop and phone.

What it measured

The team runs promotions without waiting on development, and the store looks as considered as the products.

Who looks after it now

Intelligent Change's own team. Bundles, discounts and campaigns are set up inside the store, so they move at their own pace.
