Shoppers ask AI what to buy and where to buy it. Brands with clear product pages and real answers get recommended over bigger names. I build that content and set up automations that keep it current.
My brand Hipsy sold in 1,600 Kroger stores for 6 years, ran a national Girl Scouts candy drive, and got picked up by the USA softball team. I know retail from the shelf side.
What Our Customers Say

Scott went above and beyond anything we ever could’ve expected. He didn’t just teach our team to use Claude. He opened our eyes to a whole new way of working. He pulled our entire business together, rebuilt our sales process from the ground up, helped us get payroll organized, and got us ready to launch our new sales team. The real difference for us has been Scott. We are going to keep working with him long-term.
