Case study

Wavryn Active

Shopify operations reporting, for nothing a month.

Store, content engine and two Google Apps Script automations replacing paid Shopify apps.

Wavryn Active project

What they needed.

A growing activewear brand needs two things Shopify does not give you out of the box: order data somewhere the team can actually work with it, and a warning before a size sells out. The Shopify app store answers both, at a monthly fee per app, on a store whose margins do not yet justify a stack of subscriptions. Meanwhile the brand had no published content at all, in a category where organic search is the cheapest channel available.

What we did.

Two automations on Google Apps Script triggers instead of two paid apps. New and updated Shopify orders land in a Google Sheet every ten minutes, and a Monday email summarises low stock in the body with the full inventory attached as CSV. No server, no deployment, no monthly cost, running entirely inside the brand's own Google account. Alongside it, an instance of the shared Akyra blog engine, now carrying sixteen posts.

Everything that shipped.

  • Live Shopify order sync into Google Sheets on a ten-minute trigger
  • Monday inventory email: low-stock summary in the body, full inventory CSV attached
  • Runs on Google Apps Script with no server, no deployment and no monthly fee
  • Scoped Shopify custom app requesting only read_products, read_inventory and read_orders
  • Written up as a step-by-step README the client can follow without us
  • Blog instance on the shared Akyra content engine, sixteen posts live
