Automation

Context

Small team; shipping had to be hands-off.
Fans split across platforms; no central link to share.
Band wanted merch live without learning ops.

Problem

Streams and store links lived on separate pages.
No automation for printing or shipping.
Storefront design felt generic.

What we did

Built a simple hero-to-store path with merch previews and play buttons.
Linked WooCommerce to Printful so orders print and ship without staff.
Embedded streaming players so fans can listen before buying.

Result

Merch ran at about USD $500 per week without manual packing.
Fans used one link for music and merch.
Band kept control of design while automations handled fulfilment.

Before / After / Impact

Before: Disconnected links and manual merch tasks.
After: Single hub with automated WooCommerce and embedded players.
Impact: Reliable weekly merch revenue with no shipping overhead.

Nerd notes

WooCommerce with Printful integration for print-on-demand.
Elementor layout kept to a few reusable blocks for easy swaps.
Streaming embeds via iframes with lazy loading to keep speed.

Status

Offline but delivered while active.
