Company research first
Understanding Ohora
I reviewed Ohora's US and Korean D2C stores to understand how the brand combines product discovery, education and campaign-led merchandising. The observations below shape how I would approach the Germany store.
Category clarity
Best, new, manicure, pedicure, care and gel formats make a broad catalogue easier to scan.
- Use consistent naming and filters
- Keep mobile discovery shallow
Education & trust
How-to content, reviews, membership and customer-care links reduce uncertainty around an unfamiliar product format.
- Localise usage guidance
- Make policies and support visible
Germany launch implications
A new market needs local language, policy clarity, reliable fulfilment and a measured test-and-learn operating rhythm.
- Validate localisation end to end
- Track friction before scaling spend

Improvement cases
Each case separates the problem, the action I personally took and the outcome I can support.
01
Discovery and catalogue clarity
- Problem
- A growing digital-product catalogue needed consistent grouping, naming and navigation so customers could understand the offer quickly.
- Action
- I organised approximately 50 products into 4 collections, standardised product information and reviewed the storefront path from category to product.
- Outcome
- The store had a clearer browse structure and a repeatable catalogue workflow. The storefront and Admin screenshots document the implemented structure.
02
Digital delivery and cost fit
- Problem
- The store needed reliable digital-file delivery while recurring platform and app costs had to remain proportionate to an early validation stage.
- Action
- I configured Shopify Digital Products, reviewed asset status, evaluated installed apps by operating value and moved part of the broader content operation to self-hosted infrastructure.
- Outcome
- The digital fulfilment workflow became directly manageable in Shopify, while platform and hosting decisions were aligned to the stage of the business.
