# Ecomm Decoded

> I find what is costing your online store sales, then fix it. Solo e-commerce operations specialist, not an agency. Bilingual (English + Spanish). Fixed price, fixed scope, fast.

I'm Jenn Velez. I diagnose and fix the operational problems that drain revenue from DTC stores doing $10K to $200K/month, conversion drop-off, broken tracking, marketplace mess, backend chaos. One specialist doing the work, not a junior team. Platform-agnostic: Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Squarespace, custom.

This is for DTC founders and e-commerce managers (2 to 15 person teams) who have real traffic and a real product but a revenue problem they can't diagnose themselves, and who've been burned by generic agency advice.

- [What to Stop Changing on Your Store Before Black Friday](https://ecommdecoded.com/stop-changing-your-store-before-black-friday/): Why a peak-weekend outage usually traces back to an untested change made days earlier, which changes to freeze two weeks out (theme code and theme publishing, checkout and payment configuration, app installs and uninstalls, URLs and redirects, shipping rates, order automations, tracking), which stay safe to change (prices, inventory, images, collections, discount codes), what Shopify documents about uninstall leaving app blocks removed, and how to keep a rollback on Shopify and WooCommerce before November 27.

- [Cómo Aumentar el Ticket Promedio de tu Tienda Online (Sin Bajar Precios)](https://ecommdecoded.com/aumentar-ticket-promedio-tienda-online/): Por qué el ticket promedio del panel no resta devoluciones (Shopify lo define como ventas brutas menos descuentos dividido entre pedidos, y deja fuera los ajustes posteriores al pedido, el envío y los impuestos), las tres únicas palancas que hacen que un pedido valga más, por qué el umbral de envío gratis va arriba de tu ticket promedio y nunca debajo, el hueco entre tramos que devuelve un error de envío en el checkout de Shopify, la casilla de WooCommerce que decide si el mínimo se evalúa antes o después del descuento del cupón, y la cuenta de margen que compara descontar contra subir el ticket antes del 27 de noviembre de 2026.
