Brand-first studio · premium DTC

We build the brand, then the store that sells it.

Most stores skip the brand and end up competing on price. We give you a brand worth choosing, then build the store that proves it. One studio, start to finish.

Who we work with

You have a real product. Your store should show it.

You care how things look, and your product earns it. The store hasn't caught up yet. That's the gap we close, for founders who'd rather stand out than blend in.

  • Apparel & streetwear
  • Beauty & skincare
  • Home & decor
  • Wellness & supplements
  • Specialty food & coffee

ECom-first, not ECom-only. We take select founder-led work on fit.

What we do

Three layers, one studio.

Take the whole thing, or start with the brand and add the rest when you're ready.

01

Brand & Positioning

We find the space you can own and build the identity to hold it: name, story, voice, logo, the full system. You can buy this on its own.

What's included
02

Store & Web

The storefront that shows the brand and turns visitors into buyers. A custom Shopify theme, or headless when you're ready to scale.

How we build
03

Growth

On-brand creative that keeps earning: product and UGC video, ad imagery, email, social, and SEO. Same studio, same standard.

What we run

Why AMDG

Why founders pick us.

Brand before store

Own a space, don't just open a shop

A store without a brand competes on price. We position you so people choose you on purpose.

Built to sell

Beauty and conversion are one job

Pretty isn't the point on its own. We design for the sale, and make it look like you.

One studio

Brand, store, and growth in one place

No handoffs, no seams. The same team carries the brand all the way through.

Real partner

You work with the person doing the work

Agency-grade craft, run by an owner who answers the email and sees it through.

How we build

Shopify under the hood. Bespoke on top.

Shopify runs the commerce, so checkout, payments, and inventory just work. We design everything you see.

Most brands

Custom Shopify theme

A storefront built around your brand, on Shopify's reliable backbone. Fast to launch, easy to run.

Flagship brands

Headless · Shopify + Next.js

A fully custom storefront for brands ready to scale: faster pages, more control, no theme limits.

How it works

Position. Build. Sell.

A clear path from a good product to a brand people choose.

1

Position

We find the space you can own and shape the brand to fit it: who it's for, what it stands for, how it speaks.

2

Build

We design and build the store that brings the brand to life, made to convert from the first scroll.

3

Sell

We launch, then keep the creative working: content, ads, and email that stay on-brand and grow.

Connor Sousa, founder of AMDG Media

Who you'll work with

Hi, I'm Connor.

I've been building websites since 2018. I started AMDG Media to do it the right way around: brand first, for founders who care how their work looks and how it sells. You work with me, not an account manager. I do the work, and I answer the email.
