    Episode 122: Is Hyvä the Fast Track to a Modern Frontend? 5 Tests for Any Ecommerce Team
    2025/05/06
    A slow storefront is a leaky bucket for conversions (and money!). In 13 minutes I will give you five quick “leak tests” to decide if Hyvä should replace your Magento/Adobe Commerce theme (or if you should consider moving off of another platform for the performance of Hyvä)—no fluff, just actions you can run today. In this episode * * Speed baseline: run Core Web Vitals and spot the red flags. * Dev velocity: why Hyvä cuts dev hours in half. * Feature fit: B2B, Adobe Commerce, extension compatibility—myth-busted. * Total cost: how a Hyvä build trims 40-50 % off year-one spend. * Team DNA: the skill mix that ramps fastest. I’ll wrap with common pitfalls and an invite for a free 30-minute Hyvä Feasibility Call (or just DM me on LinkedIn for the one-page checklist). Listen, test your site, and plug the leaks.

    Most “failed” ecommerce replatforms were sunk long before the first sprint—right at the leadership table. In this live episode I break down: * The “Why‑Now” Gap – how shiny‑object buys turn into seven‑figure write‑offs. Scope Without a P&L Owner – why committees bloat budgets and delay launches. Kill‑Switch Chaos – the tightrope between zombie projects and trigger‑happy cancellations. You’ll leave with a simple 90‑Day Pilot Playbook that keeps projects lean, measurable, and worth betting on—and a one‑page “success contract” template you can swipe today. Need the template? DM me pilot on LinkedIn and I’ll send it over.

    Episode 118: Exploring Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service
    2025/04/08
    In this episode of Commerce Today, I break down Adobe's new "Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service," a SaaS offering that's shifting the ecommerce landscape in a significant way. Unlike Adobe Commerce Cloud (a platform-as-a-service), Adobe’s latest solution is fully multi-tenant, composable, and headless, providing automatic updates, reliable performance, and deep integrations with the broader Adobe ecosystem. I explore standout features like built-in digital asset management, powerful B2B functionality, and innovative generative AI through Adobe Firefly. Drawing from Adobe Summit and thorough research, I explain why this offering matters for ecommerce businesses, how it compares to competitors like Shopify, and what merchants need to know about adopting Adobe Commerce as part of their strategy.
