Maximize Theme – Omni Themes

IMGadgets Grew Sales 200% by Ditching a 2,500-Year-Old Theme & Using Maximize Theme

Luong Vu — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 08:32:32 +0000

Maximize Theme

When you’re managing a fast-growing Shopify store, every detail matters.

A slow page. A confusing menu. One extra click. They all add friction to the shopping journey.

As IMGadgets put it, relying on their previous theme was “a bit like trying to run a 2026 sales campaign using a marble column as a server. It’s impressive to look at, but we weren’t getting a very fast connection on mobile.” Their story shows how the right Shopify theme can unlock growth—and here’s how Maximize made it happen.

IMGadgets achieved a substantial reduction in page load times, enhancing the delivery of their product assets to customers.

Get to know IMGadgets

IMGadgets started in 2015 in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, founded by Ish Chopra and Meenu Seda. Their first brand, Gyrocopters, was among the first in the country to sell UL 2272-certified hoverboards, at a time when battery safety in that category was a real concern for shoppers.

From there, the business grew into a full lifestyle catalog. Today IMGadgets sells under four brands: Gyrocopters (e-bikes, scooters, hoverboards), IMFit (home gym equipment), IMHome (standing desks, furniture, pools), and IMLoved (baby and family essentials). That’s a lot of very different products living on one storefront.

As the catalog continued to grow, so did customer expectations. Shoppers needed to find products quickly, compare options easily, and complete purchases without unnecessary friction.

Behind the storefront is Jake, an agency designer who has built Shopify stores using many different themes over the years. That experience gave him a clear benchmark for what a great theme should feel like.

It Was Time to Retire the “Marble Column”

Growing fast comes with new challenges. Before switching, IMGadgets ran on a theme the team had outgrown. It couldn’t keep pace with how people actually shop now. As IMGadgets described their situation to the Omni Themes team when using the old theme:

“It was definitely time for a change; relying on a theme based on 5th-century BC Athenian power for modern e-commerce was a bit like trying to run a 2026 sales campaign using a marble column as a server—it’s impressive to look at, but we weren’t getting a very fast connection on mobile.”

– IMGadgets

The old setup showed its age in two places that matter most to online shoppers: mobile responsiveness and load times. Neither was working in the store’s favor.

Why Maximize Became Their Theme of Choice

For Jake, who was in charge of refreshing the online presence of IMGadgets, the difference wasn’t just in what the theme could do. It was how easy it was to build with.

“As an agency and designer who has used many other themes for other Shopify clients, Maximize has by far been my favourite theme to use.”

While working with our customer support team, Jake left these kind words – which prove the best at showing how different the Maximize Theme is for IMGadgets than any other Shopify theme out there, with just affordable pricing.

Also, Maximize Theme, built by Omni Themes, was one of the few themes on the market that has the new features included in every release, every month. This makes room for a big, varied catalog of stores like IMGadgets. The theme gave the team confidence that future improvements could be implemented without rebuilding the entire storefront.

What Good Support Looks Like After Launch

A theme migration isn’t the finish line. It’s what happens afterward that tells you whether a partner is actually reliable.

As with any growing store, IMGadgets encountered a few technical questions after launch. Whether it was resolving a layout issue or configuring advanced product labels, the Omni Themes team responded quickly and worked alongside them until everything was running as expected.

That’s the kind of back-and-forth every merchant runs into eventually. Having a support team that answers it clearly and fast matters as much as the theme itself.

Every product needs time and effort to be more and more perfect day by day. For the Omni Themes team – the team behind Maximize – the feedback and collaboration from real users like IMGadgets is truly our motivation. Not only because we can understand our customers’ thoughts and work hard to meet their needs, but also because their satisfaction and happy words come once the prep work is done perfectly, so they can focus on making sales. Just like how IMGadgets gets 200% YoY growth in sales.

A Quick Tour of the Online Store

Viewing the storefront is the best way to see how determined the IMGadgets team is to care about their customers’ shopping experience, backed by the built-in features of the Maximize Theme:

The mega menu: Organized, easy to find

Selling so many different types of products, IMGadgets must categorize well for customers to find and buy easily. The mega menu of the Maximize Theme shows them well. Using the Drawer menu and 2 other styles of Mega menu, IMGadgets makes sure their customers can navigate at ease wherever they are, on any screen size.

The promotion grid section: Smart way to start your page

Right on the homepage, at first glance, instead of a big, space-consuming slideshow like many other online stores, IMGadgets chose the Promotion grid section. This section helps the store show the best-selling collections above the fold, without overwhelming the visitors with text and large banners

The product page: Informative, visually catching

The product page of IMGadgets makes good use of the sections and blocks built into the Maximize Theme team, combined with the stunning product images:

The Magnifier image zoom effect lets customers tap on the beautiful image and zoom in right in the frame, wandering around the image, no new page load needed.
The Labels & Badges at the very top of the page let visitors quickly grasp the key information & deal of the current product.
The Text with icons shows the key highlights of products and the store’s guarantee at a glance. Quick and effective.
The Specification table displays the key metrics smartly; this can be combined with metafields to show dynamic numbers for each product.
The Collapsible tab helps to answer all customers’ questions before they even ask.
The Video block that gives the buyer a visual break from all the words.

Altogether, the key page for conversion motivates customers to buy confidently with transparency in pricing, deals, and all related information. Plus, the combination of different designs of different blocks creates an organized and visually appealing structure, not a stuffed page, even though IMGadgets has a lot to say about their product.

The Ending

Nothing can prove it better than IMGadgets’ own words…

“The transition from Athens to Maximize was a technical necessity that aligned our digital storefront with modern e-commerce requirements”

… and the real changes that can be witnessed in numbers: A 200% increase in sales compared to the previous year & a 15% increase in conversion rate.

To put the whole experience working with Maximize Theme and the team behind it into a summary, IMGadgets expressed:

“Thank you to the Omni Themes team for building a theme that effortlessly supports large, diverse catalogs while keeping page speeds blazing fast!”

Maximize is built by Omni Themes, part of BSS Commerce, a Shopify Premier Partner founded in 2012 and one of only three in Southeast Asia. BSS Commerce is ISO 27001-certified and has worked with over 100,000 merchants worldwide.

98 on Desktop. 90 on Mobile. How Tiendas MD Built a Fast, Premium Shopify Store

Luong Vu — Thu, 02 Jul 2026 10:48:39 +0000

Maximize Theme

In a follow-up message after launching their new store on Maximize Theme, Luis of Tiendas MD reflected on the experience:

“You have a fantastic product, but it’s your world-class team that truly makes the difference. We are proud to bring our 48-year legacy into the future with Omni Themes.”

What makes the collaboration between Tiendas MD and the Omni Themes team so wholesome? Let’s find out in today’s story:

Get to know about Tiendas MD

Based in El Salvador, Tiendas MD – a brand that has been open since 1978 – carries women’s, men’s, and children’s footwear, including its own MD label and an official Puma collection. The physical stores feel like boutiques: warm tones, clean displays, nothing out of place. Customers don’t just come in to buy shoes. They come in because the experience itself feels premium.

For 48 years, the brand has grown to 65 stores across the region, becoming a notable women’s fashion brand in each country.

Then, the brand came the question every established retailer eventually faces: how do you take something that works in the physical world – the care, the curation, the feel – and make it work online?

The Challenge: A Live Store That Didn’t Match the Brand

Tiendas MD already had a Shopify store when this story began. It was functional. Products were listed. Orders could be placed. But Luis Ayala, who leads the brand’s digital vision, knew it wasn’t living up to what Tiendas MD stands for.

Bringing that 48-year history into the digital world was a huge responsibility. We needed a platform that could truly translate our premium brand identity to the web.

– Luis from the Tiendas MD team

Three things, in particular, were holding the store back.

🎨 The color problem:

Tiendas MD sells footwear, and color is one of the first things a shopper looks for. But on the product grid – the page where customers browse collections – there was no way to see color options at a glance. To find out whether a shoe came in beige or black, a customer had to click into each product individually. For a boutique where color drives the purchase decision, that friction was costing sales.

🌍 The language gap:

The store served a Spanish-speaking audience, but English labels kept surfacing across the theme – buttons, badges, UI messages that hadn’t been localized. For Tiendas MD, a brand that prides itself on intentionality, having “Add to Cart” appear instead of “Agregar al carrito” was more than a small oversight. It was a signal that the store hadn’t been finished.

📱 The mobile gap:

Nearly 90% of Tiendas MD’s shoppers arrive on a phone – and many of them use mid-range devices. A slow or cluttered mobile experience wasn’t just a technical issue. It was a business problem. The store needed to load fast, feel premium, and guide shoppers toward a purchase without friction.

Luis knew what he wanted for Tiendas MD: a digital flagship that felt as curated and intentional as walking into the physical store. What he needed was the right theme – and the right team behind it.

Why They Chose Maximize Theme

Luis didn’t make this decision quickly. After researching options, Luis found Maximize Theme by Omni Themes. And he didn’t just browse through the demo store; he actually worked on setting up the store on the free trial plan to see how Maximize matches MD’s online presence expectations.

I’ve been working with Maximize (Vigor) for several days now and I’m genuinely impressed – the section depth, the layout flexibility, and the overall architecture make it the right fit for what I’m building.

– Luis from the Tiendas MD team

Several things made Maximize the final choice for Tiendas MD:

The theme had the depth the brand needed. Maximize comes with a wide range of built-in sections and design options – enough to build an editorial, premium look without relying on third-party apps or workarounds. The flexibility to customize layouts, typography, and product presentation was exactly what a boutique with a strong visual identity required.
It was built with mobile as the priority. Unlike themes that treat mobile as an afterthought, Maximize is designed from the ground up for smaller screens – which mattered enormously for a store where 90% of visitors arrive on a phone.
It had native color swatch support. Right on the Maximize demo store, Luis could see color options displayed directly on the product cards – exactly what Tiendas MD needed, built into the theme without any additional setup.
And then there was something few themes offer: a free professional design and setup service. Omni Themes would create a custom design mockup, implement it on the store, and provide dedicated support throughout – at no extra charge. For a brand as detail-oriented as Tiendas MD, the idea of working directly with a professional design team was hard to pass up.

Before the Purchase: Support That Starts Early

Most theme companies wait for a sale before offering serious support.

Omni Themes works differently.

When Luis first reached out in early March – still weeks before any purchase – the team responded the same morning and scheduled a live video call for the next day. On that call, the agent walked him through the theme’s mobile performance, how the free consulting process works, and how color swatches are configured. Every question got an answer.

A few weeks later, the team went even further. They ran a live demo setup directly on Luis’s store – setting up the color swatches on the product grid and translating the full UI to Spanish – so he could test both features on his actual store before deciding.

He purchased Maximize after around 1 month of carefully examining and thoroughly communicating with the Omni Themes team – the team behind it.

The Design Process: From Brief to Figma in 8 Days

The custom Figma mockup, delivered 8 days after purchase

Once Luis purchased the theme, he submitted his design requirements through Omni Themes’ free consulting program. His submission was detailed: specific color codes, typography preferences, photography guidelines, and a clear priority: mobile-first.

Around a week after his purchase, the Omni Themes design team delivered a full Figma mockup – a detailed visual blueprint of what the store would look like, covering the homepage, collection pages, and product pages.

Luis and his team spent the weekend reviewing every detail. The layout, the spacing, the image hierarchy, and the way the warm cream palette tied everything together. Their response was direct:

– Luis from the Tiendas MD team

Then, the developers from the Omni Themes team started immediately on setting up the theme following the design. Several days later, the full setup was delivered – one day ahead of the committed deadline.

What Got Built: A Store That Earns Attention

A Homepage That Feels Like a Boutique

The Tiendas MD homepage opens with a full-screen hero image – a lifestyle shot of footwear in motion. There’s generous space around the subject. A headline and a button sit cleanly without competing. The overall feeling is editorial: intentional, warm, unhurried.

Below the hero, a collection grid showcases the Women’s, Men’s, and Puma collections. Product cards display in a portrait ratio, with warm cream backgrounds that make the footwear itself the focus. On each card, color variant swatches appear directly – shoppers can see available colors at a glance, before clicking into any product. For Tiendas MD, this alone solves one of the core problems they came in with.

Collection Pages That Orient the Shopper

Each collection page opens with a short editorial banner – a soft gradient in warm cream and taupe – that establishes the brand identity before any products appear. Breadcrumbs at the top of the page show the shopper exactly where they are, written in uppercase Spanish: INICIO > COLECCIÓN. That uppercase formatting was a specific detail Luis had requested; implementing it required a small piece of custom code from the Omni Themes technical team, which they delivered as part of the setup.

Below the banner, the product grid extends in clean columns. Nothing competes with the shoes.

A Product Page That Removes Every Reason Not to Buy

On the product page, the shopper sees the item in full portrait format. Color swatches appear immediately below the product name. A “Low Stock” indicator shows when sizes are running out.

As the shopper scrolls – reading the description, checking the size guide – a sticky “Add to Cart” bar stays locked at the bottom of the screen. It doesn’t disappear. The price, the size selector, and the purchase button are always visible and always accessible.

When the shopper taps “Add to Cart,” a drawer slides up from the bottom of the screen. Inside: the item they just added, a clear subtotal, and a visual progress bar showing how much more they need to spend to qualify for free shipping. The whole flow happens without leaving the product page.

Every label, every button, every message on the page is in Spanish. There is no English anywhere that a customer would see. The experience is complete.

The Result: A Store the Brand Is Proud Of

PageSpeed scores from the live store for Desktop & Mobile (video recorded by Luis – Maximize Theme’s customer)

The store’s PageSpeed scores – 98 on desktop and 90 on mobile – reflect the work both sides put in. The Maximize Theme’s mobile-first architecture gave the store a lean, fast foundation. Luis brought his own performance discipline to the launch: images pre-optimized in WebP format, system fonts chosen for speed, assets sized precisely for mobile screens. The result was a combination of the theme’s structure and the brand’s own preparation.

On the same day as the launch, Luis published a five-star review on the Shopify Theme Store:

Ready to Build Your Online Store?

Maximize Theme is published by Omni Themes, a brand under BSS Commerce. Founded in 2012, BSS Commerce works with over 100,000 merchants worldwide and is one of only three Shopify Premier Partners in Southeast Asia.

Tiendas MD’s success story is strong proof that every physical store can easily make its first digital footprint, just by finding the right partner. If you’re building a Shopify store and you want it to feel as considered as your brand, Maximize Theme was built for exactly that – and the free setup service means you don’t have to figure it out alone.

From 4 themes to 50,000+ monthly users – How Mobile 2000 Found the Right Shopify Theme

Luong Vu — Tue, 26 May 2026 10:59:43 +0000

Maximize Theme

For Syed Naveed, who is in charge of the MOBILE 2000 online presence, the search had been long.

His team at Mobile 2000 had moved their online store from Magento to Shopify Plus. The platform was perfect. The themes were not.

They tried one. Then another. Then a third. Then a fourth. Each time, the demo looked great. Each time, the real thing fell short.

Mobile 2000 wasn’t a small shop. It was a serious electronics retailer with three decades behind it. The brand had dozens of branches and partnerships with major mobile makers. Their customers expected real quality.

“Good enough” wasn’t going to cut it.

Mobile 2000 – A Brand Built on Standards

MOBILE 2000 started in the late 1990s.

The founder, Mr. Homoud Abadel, saw a real problem in the local mobile market. Prices weren’t clear. Products weren’t always trusted. After-sales support was weak.

He set out to fix all of that.

Years later, his vision had grown into one of Kuwait’s most trusted names in mobile retail. The brand built service centers, which quickly brought them distinction in the market. MOBILE 2000 earned authorized dealer status with the biggest mobile names. It became known for showing up – every branch, every customer, every day.

Today, MOBILE 2000 stands as a mature, system-oriented organization known for reliability, a wide product range, and a strong service infrastructure, built on the original vision of solving inefficiencies in the mobile retail industry.

The same standard had to live online too.

That’s where the trouble started.

Homoud Aboadel – The Mobile 2000’s Founder

Start from the theme search struggles

The team was clear on what they wanted.

A theme that worked beautifully on mobile.

A clean design that matched a premium brand.

A proper support for Arabic, because many of their customers shop in Arabic every day.

🚨 However, FOUR THEMES failed to deliver.

Syed Naveed from the MOBILE 2000 team, who takes responsibility for refreshing the MOBILE 2000’s online presence, put it plainly:

“We switched from other 4 themes because it didn’t meet our objective. They didn’t have proper features what we are looking for compare to other ecommerce websites in the market.”

And the struggles ended when they met the Maximize Theme…

Till finding the right match – Maximize theme

Syed found Maximize on the Shopify Theme Store.

He had seen a lot of demos by that point. Most looked fine on the surface. But this one felt different.

Every feature had a clear purpose. The navigation was built for stores with hundreds of products. The homepage sections were designed to guide shoppers toward buying – not just to fill up space. The mobile experience was smooth and fast.

This wasn’t just a good-looking theme. It was a theme built by people who truly understood merchants. Merchants with large catalogs. Merchants who need their store to actually convert, not just look good in a screenshot.

For Syed, three things caught his eye right away:

The demo store looked sharp.

The design was clearly built for mobile shoppers

And Omni Theme’s free setup service.

There was a fourth thing, too. Maybe the most important one.

Maximize supports right-to-left languages out of the box. No plugins. No risky workarounds. Arabic just works. This wasn’t an accident either. A theme built by people who truly understand merchants knows that serving a bilingual market can’t be an afterthought.

For a store serving both English and Arabic shoppers, this was the answer.

On November 9, 2025, Syed reached out to start the Free Design & Set up Program with the Omni Themes team. And this is when the transformation starts.

The three-week build story

The next morning, the two teams were on a call together through Google Meet.

Syed walked through what Mobile 2000 needed with extra customization. The Omni Themes team listened, asked the right questions, and started working.

Shortly after, a full design mockup was ready in Figma.

From the first message to the delivered store is under three weeks. While handing over, the Omni Themes team leaves a note that captures the spirit of the work:

“We’ve taken care of the overall theme setup… There are still a few elements that require your personal touch.”

It was a partnership, not a dependency. Mobile 2000 got a professional store. And Syed kept full control of what came next. More than that, the support goes on, even after the project has finished.

The results

1. A real gain in number

When asked for any improvement that MOBILE 2000 witnesses since switching to the Maximize Theme, Syed Naveed emphasized:

“The theme Maximize, which we are using, has all the features that we are looking for in the e-commerce platform.”

His claims aren’t just talk; they are backed by hard data.

Since launching with Maximize, Mobile 2000 has gained more than 50,000 additional monthly users on the store.

And remember – they got here after trying four other themes. For a brand with their standards, that journey says a lot.

2. A store built for shoppers

The new store was built around how MOBILE 2000’s customers actually shop. Let’s tour around to see how Maximize Theme caters to every little detail, ensuring browsers happily turn into buyers.

Clear search bar

The search bar stays on top and dominates at all times, on all screens. Most arrive on a phone. Most know what they’re looking for. Therefore, the team made mobile a priority and made it handy for any shoppers who have a clear product in mind.

Detailed but not overwhelming header

The mobile header puts the language toggle, track order link, and phone contact right at the top. The menu uses clear icons. The mega menu shows collection images, so shoppers can spot what they want at a glance.

RTL Language

This is where Maximize really shines.

Arabic isn’t just a language. It changes the entire layout: Text flows from right to left; navigation mirrors; product cards reverse; buttons move; spacing flips. The whole visual flow of the page reverses.

Most themes can’t handle this well. Things break. Sections misalign. The Arabic version feels like an afterthought.

Maximize handles it natively. RTL is built into the theme. Switching from English to Arabic just works. For a brand serving bilingual shoppers, this is what proper RTL support looks like.

English storefront

Arabic storefront

The homepage tells a story, too. A hero slideshow promotes the biggest deals. A countdown timer adds urgency. Promotion grids and featured collections guide shoppers toward what’s hot. Brand sections – Samsung, Apple – make it easy to shop by name.

It’s a store designed for action. Not just for looks.

3. The happy words over the limit

The MOBILE 2000 team left a satisfied review on the Maximize Theme on the theme store, and they even want to go over the character limit from Shopify:

“After reviewing approximately 1,000 different theme options, a clear benchmark emerged: a professional, high-performance website theme comparable to those used by multi-million-dollar eCommerce platforms. Based on this evaluation, the selected theme aligns precisely with those standards, offering the structure, scalability, and features required for a top-tier eCommerce experience.”

The Sky Balloons migrated to Maximize theme for a luxury mobile store

Luong Vu — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 09:41:31 +0000

Maximize Theme

A Dubai luxury balloon brand – trusted by Atlantis The Palm and The Ritz-Carlton – with 300+ SKUs moves from a well-known Shopify theme to Maximize – and finds the theme architecture, mobile design, and hands-on support it was looking for.

Brand	The Sky Balloons
Location	Dubai, UAE
Industry	Luxury balloon delivery & event decoration
Theme	Maximize by Omni Themes
Service	Free theme design & setup program (included in theme purchase)
Key wins	300+ products organized without slowing the store Mobile experience rebuilt from the ground up SEO was preserved and improved App conflicts fixed before and after launch Ongoing support after the store went live
Website	www.theskyballoons.com

Who is The Sky Balloons?

The Sky Balloons began as a small idea. Junaid’s wife wanted to start a part-time balloon business — something centred on celebrations and thoughtful surprises. Junaid decided to support her fully, and eventually joined the business himself, putting his trust, time, and energy into building it alongside her.

Like most small businesses, the journey was not always smooth. There were periods when things did not go as planned, and the business was not performing as hoped. They chose not to give up. They stayed consistent, kept improving their products, refined the customer experience, and focused on quality, presentation, and reliability.

The business had grown quickly. Their catalog expanded to more than 300 products, spread across many collections and categories. While the products looked luxurious, the store experience was starting to feel crowded and harder to navigate, especially on mobile.

For the founder, Junaid, this was a problem. Most of his customers shop on their phones. If they could not find what they wanted in seconds, they would leave. They browse by occasion, value a premium aesthetic – think rose gold, champagne, and metallics – and expect the buying experience to feel as polished as the product itself.

Junaid had already managed a live Shopify store on a $400 Shopify theme before, so he was not new to the platform. But the brand had outgrown its setup, and it was time for a theme built for this kind of scale.

Why are they choosing the Maximize Theme?

The Sky Balloons was using another Shopify Theme. It performed well until the product range and number of collections grew; the design became a limitation, especially on the homepage.

Junaid found Maximize through the Shopify Theme Store. The Sky Balloons team chose it for the cost, the reviews, the comprehensive feature set, the speed optimisation, and the mobile-friendliness. For a store running 300+ SKUs, those last two points were not nice-to-haves – they were requirements. Junaid also chose it specifically for the free theme consulting and setup program offered by Omni Themes.

“We switched to Maximize because it offers a much better structure for showcasing products and organizing multiple collections on the homepage. The design makes it easier to feature collections in a clean, visually appealing way while still keeping navigation simple for customers. Maximize also provides stronger mobile layouts and greater flexibility without the need for heavy custom coding. For a visually driven business with a large catalog like ours, it proved to be a better long-term fit.”

– Junaid, The Sky Balloons –

The challenge: The Brief Was Clear – and the Stakes Were Real

The Sky Balloons came in with a detailed, well-considered brief. Junaid knew what the brand needed, he knew what he could not afford to lose, and all are noted down clearly:

1. Managing 300+ SKUs without sacrificing speed or navigation

With 300+ SKUs organised across two levels of collections – occasions, product types, service categories, and merchandising groups like Best Sellers and New Arrivals – The Sky Balloons needed a theme architecture built for scale. Collection pages had to load fast, navigation had to be clear, and the browsing experience had to work without friction for a customer who might not know exactly what they are looking for.

This is where the old theme begin to struggle. Performance degrades. Navigation becomes cluttered. Mobile layouts collapse under the weight of deep collection structures. Junaid needed a theme explicitly designed for stores at this scale.

2. SEO had to remain untouched

The store had been live for a long time. It had built up search visibility, product content, and structured data that Junaid could not afford to lose in a theme migration. SEO was not just a feature request – it was the most repeated concern across his messages and his form submission.

The Sky Balloons was also running the SEO app for product schema. So they needed clarity on whether switching themes would break his structured data, create overlap, or silently drop coverage.

3. A mobile experience that actually feels premium

The Sky Balloons’ audience shops predominantly on mobile. The store needed a design that looked and felt premium on a small screen – not a desktop layout squeezed down as an afterthought. So mobile was the primary design target.

4. App compatibility was a live risk

The store relied on delivery scheduling and WhatsApp chat apps. Theme changes often cause layout or functionality issues, so compatibility needed to be tested and fixed.

5. The design had to reflect a luxury brand

The Sky Balloons’ palette – soft pinks, rose, teal, white, and black – needed to come through clearly. Junaid shared brand guide files with logos and colour codes. He trusted the team’s judgement on execution, but the bar for quality was set high from the start.

The Story: From Brief to Live Store in Under Two Weeks

The free theme consulting and setup program starts with a business insights form. Junaid’s answers gave the Omni Themes team a full picture: the target customer, the collection structure, the colour palette, the brand policies, and the design priorities. The brief was thorough, and it shaped every decision that followed.

Design delivered ahead of schedule

The Omni Themes design team completed the Figma mockup on January 9 – six days ahead of the January 15 deadline. Two homepage versions were created for Junaid to choose between. He reviewed the designs and approved them without changes. His only addition was a request to select Version 1, with collections positioned on the top left.

One small update came on the same day as design approval: Junaid asked for a company’s UAE Tax Registration Number to be added to the footer. The design team updated the Figma file and confirmed the position within 30 minutes.

SEO preserved – and set up to improve

The design team reviewed the SEO requirement carefully before a single section was built. All SEO tools and content structures from the original live store were carried over into the new design.

The team also identified additional setup recommendations that could strengthen SEO performance beyond the original site’s baseline. On the schema question, the answer was straightforward: the Maximize theme includes built-in product schema support. Junaid did not need to keep running the existing SEO app for that feature – one less app, one less point of potential conflict.

Mobile-first setup – desktop adjusted to follow

When the setup team built the live theme, they made a deliberate decision: design for mobile first, then adjust desktop to match. This reflected Junaid’s brief and the nature of the store’s audience. The result was a mobile experience built to the exact specification of the design, with the desktop version maintaining the same visual quality.

This approach made a noticeable difference:

cleaner menus
faster browsing
better product visibility without excessive scrolling

What looked like a simple design choice was actually a business decision based on real customer behavior.

During the adaptation process, Junaid and the Omni Themes team worked closely to find out every little detail and adjust them till perfection.

Resolving app conflicts

During setup, the delivery scheduling app caused layout issues in the cart. If left unresolved, customers would not be able to select delivery times correctly- a critical part of the buying process.

The team applied targeted CSS fixes and later improved them when the issue returned after a theme update – to make the fix permanent. The WhatsApp widget also had a positioning bug that required a similar workaround.

These fixes were invisible to shoppers – which is exactly the point.

Support That Did Not Stop at Launch

The relationship between Junaid and the Omni Themes team did not end when the store went live. Over the months that followed, the team continued to resolve issues as they appeared.

Junaid leaves a five-star review.

“The website feels much faster and more professional, especially on mobile. Conversions improved noticeably, and customers complete orders more smoothly. One of the things we love most is how the theme allows us to display and organize a large number of collections on the homepage without making the site feel crowded.”

– Junaid, The Sky Balloons – (Q&A, 27 March, 2026)

The Result: A Live Store That Looks as Good as the Product

The Sky Balloons launched on Maximize with a mobile-first design built around their brand identity. The store reflects the luxury, occasion-driven aesthetic their customers expect – clean layout, brand colours, premium feel – and it went from brief to live in under ten days of active work.

All third-party app conflicts were resolved. The delivery date picker works correctly in both the cart page and cart drawer. The WhatsApp widget stays in position. The mobile menu displays cleanly.

The SEO foundation the store had built over time was preserved through the migration, and the theme’s built-in product schema support removed the need for an app that was previously doing that job. One less dependency, one less monthly cost.

Junaid felt confident enough in the setup to manage the store’s ongoing content himself. The consulting and setup program gave him a professional foundation – and an ongoing support relationship he could rely on when issues arose.

“What we appreciate most about Omni Themes is that it doesn’t just look good — it’s built thoughtfully. For a business like ours where imagery and first impressions are everything, having a theme that loads fast and presents products cleanly makes a real difference. We’d love to see continued improvements around mobile filtering and collection page flexibility, but overall it’s been a strong foundation for our growth in the Dubai market. To any merchant considering it — invest in your storefront. It’s the first thing your customer sees, and it sets the tone for everything that follows.”

– Junaid, The Sky Balloons – (Q&A, 27 March, 2026)

The bottom lines

The design-to-setup timeline was tight but smooth: design completed three days after the brief was received, setup completed the day after design approval, and the first support issue was resolved within 24 hours of launch. That pace is only possible when the onboarding information is complete.

Juniad’s final message before leaving five stars: “I truly appreciate your quick support in resolving this.” – is a big motivation for the Omni Themes team to produce better products and offer better services.

Glamourous Grace rebuilds Scalable Storefront with Maximize Theme

Luong Vu — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 11:07:22 +0000

Maximize Theme

Wajma Nasri, the owner of Glamourous Grace, never wanted her store to feel ordinary.

She built Glamourous Grace to be a celebration of modern femininity – a place where women could discover elegantly crafted clothing, timeless jewelry, clean beauty essentials, chic home accents, and thoughtful baby & kids pieces, all ethically made with love by the world’s finest artisan partners.

The reason that brings Glamourous Grace and Maximize Theme together

The vision for Glamourous Grace is clear. But for years, her vision was trapped inside a slow, clunky premium theme. Paying for a nearly $400 theme with the hope of creating a luxury fashion store, the theme ends up making every click feel like a chore.

“The issue with my current theme on Shopify is that it’s very slow, and not enough functions.” – Wajma shared.

The frustration is clear. Spent time and money on a paid theme already, but the problems are still there, and Wajma decided it’s time to make a change for Glamourous Grace!

Then, in November 2025, everything changed.

She found Maximize on the Shopify Theme Store – and saw the demo that finally looked as sophisticated and effortless as her brand deserved.

What sealed the decision?

Since the first met on the Shopify Theme Store, Glamourous feels engaged with the theme because of:

Powerful built-in features that can replace multiple apps and save up to $200 per month.
Blazing-fast speed (even with 200+ product catalogues)
A fully mobile-first experience worthy of luxury shoppers
And most unbelievably… a completely free professional design + setup service from the Omni Themes team

She has already experienced the theme’s features herself, with some guidance from our support team. After quick and helpful assistance, she decided to get the theme and use the EXTRA SERVICE of free design & store setup to officially make a change for Glamourous Grace.

Wajma quickly applied a form for design consulting and set up services from the Omni Themes team – on November 6th.

After around 9 days, her store wasn’t just live – it was breathtaking.

The 9-Day “Love Story” Between Glamourous Grace & Maximize

Day 1–2: Falling in Love on the Discovery journey

The Omni Themes team investigated the information Wajma provided around their vision and the feel she wants Glamourous Grace to have. By that, the design experts can dive deep into the brand soul: soft neutrals with bold accents, effortless elegance, the quiet luxury of knowing every piece is ethically made. Therefore, the Omni team planned a customer journey that makes browsing feel like stepping into a high-end boutique, with Maximize’s vibe and features.

“I like most of Maximize theme’s functions,”

– said Wajma

Day 3–6: Bringing the Vision to Life

Using Maximize’s unmatched flexibility, we created a custom design that screams Glamourous Grace:

A dominant slideshow, combined with more media sections such as Logo lists, Promotional collections, to drive visitors’ attention to the appealing clothing products
Light, elegant with beige, but still has bold characteristics with burgundy red and black, ensures the store achieves Glamourous Grace’s hope for a “more exciting and not boring” color tone.

The designer team worked hard to understand the brand, understand the mission, bring up new creative ideas, and bring them to real life with Figma, in just a few days!

Day 7: The love at first sight

After several days of dedicated work, we finally prepared enough to send Wajma the preview link to her future store.

Her reply came with excitement:

“What I see is beautiful. It looks amazing.”

“I don’t really see anything wrong at the moment, but to say it’s just amazing.”

A sentence that is worth more than a thousand praises, that makes us want to read it again and again.

Day 8-9: The Seamless Migration

The Omni Themes team moved all 200+ products, collections, policies, and content from the old theme to Maximize – with zero downtime. Our development team worked with precision on every detail, immediately followed by the Quality Assurance (QA) team, whose job was to guarantee absolute perfection. During this final stage, the store owner, Wajma, requested a few quick yet crucial enhancements: adding new sections to better showcase Glamourous Grace’s extensive product variety and making final structural adjustments to the Mega Menu. The Omni Themes team rapidly addressed these requests, demonstrating the agility of our support service. With the site running perfectly and every adjustment implemented, the team gave the final green light. The launch day was clear!

After the Launch: Let’s tour around!

It’s not an exaggeration to say Glamourous Grace is reborn, with a new vibe, new look, and new buying experience. Everything is upgraded! Let’s note some highlights point on Wajma’s store:

Mega menu

Right at the entry, we can see an ultra-smooth mega menu that gracefully guides visitors from “Women” items to “Beauty”, “Baby&Kids”, “Home”, and “Clearance Sale”, with a dominant CTA button to the “Small Gifts To Love”. For any store with a large product base like Glamourous Grace, a menu with a clear structure and visual guidance is the optimal solution.

Product reviews with the Loox app

Review is an important element for every online store, and with Loox, the way those precious reviews are displayed is even more engaging and eye-catching.

Loox Review has been well-known for its effective review showcase on Shopify stores without slowing down the site. Moreover, the app is also fully compatible with Maximize Theme. A beautifully integrated Loox reviews section styled in Grace’s exact brand fonts and colors. We can also see the review signal throughout the site with a small pop-up while scrolling, and a sticky widget on the right side.

Highlight product set

Continue scrolling down, and you meet the breathtaking highlight product sets – think “Shop the Look” feature of the Eurus Theme, but on steroids: not just one dominant image, but a gallery. Each of the images can show up to 3 clickable hotspots. This makes customers easily imagine how the item looks in real life and adds it to the cart with one tap!

Smart, predictive filtering

Any large catalog store needs a powerful filter on its search page/ collection pages that makes finding the perfect size, color, or ethically-made fabric feel magical.

It operates smoothly and efficiently, delivering a beautiful and fast user experience. I highly appreciate this theme; the support team is exceptional and even assisted with the setup.”

Like a happy ending, Wajma has her own digital dream store, the Maximize theme has the very first successful case study, and the Omni Themes team’s dedication supports another business in their journey to grow big.
