Press Inquiries

I want to be your guest

As a meetup organizer, I know how hard it is to find speakers. I’d love to be on your podcast, speak at your event, and/or write on your blog. Topics I’m passionate about:

E-commerce related topics that increase revenue without breaking the bank

• Your customer’s experience on Shopify has a direct correlation to sales.
• The easiest and most obvious changes to a Shopify store to reach your goals.
• Increase revenue and market share by designing for inclusivity (disabilities, race, and gender).

Some questions you could ask me:

• What simple things can merchants do to have a more inclusive website?
• What exactly does inclusivity mean and how does that relate to e-commerce?
• A client comes to you wanting to redesign their Shopify store. What questions do you ask?
• What are the specific design mistakes merchants make time and time again?
• Why are you so adamantly opposed to social feeds on websites?

Business / Personal related

• What it’s like to transition a male-dominated career.
• What aspiring developers aren’t told before they switch careers.
• Starting a solo consulting business.

Some questions you could ask me:

• What advice would you give to someone looking to learn more about development?
• What can businesses do to increase diversity in their candidate pool?
• How has your background in HR shaped your business in design?

If you’d like to book me, email your pitch to hello@ilanadavis.com and we’ll get the details taken care of.
