Case Study:

Shopify Build for Solstice Timepiece

We designed Solstice Timepiece’s Shopify site with a luxury-first approach — boosting mobile checkout rates, increasing customer inquiries, and giving their team full control over launches and promotions.

How It Started

For high-end eCommerce, every detail matters — from page speed and product flow to visual storytelling and mobile perfection.

That’s why Solstice Timepiece, a luxury watch brand specializing in sapphire crystal and stainless-steel craftsmanship, partnered with Local Social Marketing LLC. Their mission? Create a Shopify storefront that reflected the sophistication of their timepieces while driving conversions and making management easy for internal staff.

Project Overview

Solstice needed a Shopify 2.0 build that could:

Present a premium watch line with style and clarity
Convert mobile shoppers with frictionless UX
Showcase testimonials, new arrivals, and bestsellers
Keep backend management simple for staff handling launches, discounts, and collections
Deliver a luxury digital brand experience on par with their product

We set out to craft a storefront that looked sleek and high-end — but was also fast, scalable, and designed to sell.

Working with Local Social has been an absolute game changer!
If you’re anywhere in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, or along the Treasure Coast, I couldn’t recommend Thomas and Local Social more!

Great company and service! I had them help me with my website and they’ve done a great job. Also. Worked on my SEO which has boosted my business. I highly recommend these guys

Working with Local Social LLC was such a great experience! They created an incredible video for Timeless Wheels Rentals that truly captured the heart of what we do.

Local Social captured the most perfect moments on camera from our networking event Sunday, the perfect go to marketing company for your business!

Awesome work with Kat and her team. So fun and easy to get everything organized. She and her team go above and beyond to give the best possible product and service. You will love her work.

If you’re anywhere in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, or along the Treasure Coast, I couldn’t recommend Thomas and Local Social more!

I'm absolutely thrilled with the logo you created! You were incredibly quick, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process.

Your pricing was also very reasonable. I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a talented and efficient graphic designer!

I have been looking for a long time to improve our company’s marketing. I met Thomas at Local Social and he went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations.

I had an amazing experience working with Local Social LLC! Thomas helped me create my first YouTube video, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.

He has the most professional camera equipment, and his expertise in videography, editing, and photography is next level.

Great service and very accommodating. Definitely give this company a try.

Did a project for me on my social media sites and I could not be happier. The media was outstanding and clients were very happy.

Owner is 100% professional and easy to work with. Did not feel rushed at all and covered everything I requested. Will definitely be using again very soon! Highly recommend!

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Thomas and the team at Local Social Marketing LLC for their incredible support in covering our Habitat for Humanity Veteran Build Kick-Off event.

From start to finish, he was professional, creative, and truly captured the energy and special moments of the event.

He has an incredible eye for detail, and the final video was beautifully edited—exactly what I was hoping for.

Amazing job these guys did for me logo looks great Very easy going people to work with highly recommend!

Thomas has been such a huge help with my social media these last few months.

I love the platform he uses to share his posts, which I can then approve, edit or comment on. It helps to be able to go back and look at the calendar that he created for the month and know that he has it under control and we can “set it and forget it!”

Great experience and took a weight off of my shoulders to have my posts scheduled for the month without having to worry about it. I highly recommend Thomas and his crew.
