Caroline Conrad
“Looks like a clinic. Books like one too.”
A bookable skincare clinic site in Stratford-upon-Avon: 10 treatment pages with prices and photos, an embedded calendar, and no e-commerce noise.
- Shopify (Online Store 2.0)
- Liquid (Dawn-based theme, heavily customised)
- Shopify CLI for all deploys
- Timely booking system (iframe embed)
- Google Maps embed
- What3Words
- Shopify CDN for images
The brief
Caroline had an existing Shopify store that looked generic and felt like a shop rather than a clinic. Treatment pages were inconsistent, the booking flow was buried, and the menu pointed at the wrong page. She needed a calm, trust-building site that helped clients find the right treatment, see clear pricing, and book a slot in one or two taps, without the e-commerce noise.
What we did
- A consistent template across 10 treatment pages: eyebrow, title, short description, intro, photo gallery, price-led treatment cards, and a booking call to action
- Timely booking calendar embedded on a dedicated booking page with a clear header and contact cards below
- Rebuilt contact page with tap-to-call, tap-to-email, opening hours, address, and a working contact form
- Rebuilt find-us page with an embedded map, address, by-car and by-public-transport cards, and a What3Words pin
- Home page hero with portrait, intro copy, trust badges, and a single dominant Book Now call to action
- Stripped out unused e-commerce furniture: hidden cart and account icons, products set to draft, deposits collection removed
- Mobile pass across every page: type scale, padding, tap targets, single-column stacking, taller map on phones
- All content in liquid files, so future edits are a single CLI push rather than clicking through 10 admin screens

- Shopify metafields or section settings for content. All per-page copy lives in the theme code so edits are one CLI push, not 10 admin screens.
- Dawn theme defaults that did not belong: wholesale quick-order lists, generic related-product grids, marketplace-style collection pages. The site reads as a clinic, not a shop.
- Testimonials without testimonials. No placeholder quotes were added. Trust is built through the treatment pages and the booking flow, not invented social proof.
