Studio
Stocks Local is a single-founder studio with two lanes: custom and headless Shopify and Next.js builds for product brands, deepest in home wellness and recovery tech, and two-week custom Launch Sites for ambitious businesses in any sector. The same hands design, build, and ship every project. No account managers, no handoffs.
Philosophy · 01
Most agencies grow by volume. More clients, more revenue, less attention per project. Work passes to juniors. Briefs get misread. You become account number 47.
We built Stocks Local on the opposite principle. A deliberately small client list means every project gets the focus it deserves. You talk to the same person from first email to final invoice. Nothing gets lost.
That holds across both lanes. A two-week Launch Site gets the same founder, the same taste, and the same standard as a full headless Shopify build.
The person you talk to is the person building your site.

Principles · 03
Small
A small client list by design.
We turn down work when we are at capacity. Not because we don't want the business. Taking on more than we can handle properly would mean letting clients down. Volume is the enemy of attention.
“One founder. One site at a time.”
Direct
One conversation, start to finish.
You have a direct line to the person doing the work. No account managers filtering feedback. No updates lost in a CRM. No junior relaying briefs they half-understood. You talk to Tyler. That is the service.
“The person you talk to is the person building your site.”
One standard
Two lanes. The same bar.
A two-week Launch Site for a clinic or a trade gets the same founder, the same design attention, and the same performance budget as a full headless Shopify build for a product brand. The lane changes the scope and the timeline. It never changes how well the work gets done.
“The lane changes the scope. Never the standard.”
Fixed scope
What's in the offer is what ships.
Every offer has a fixed shape, written down. Builds include exactly what the build page says. The retainer ships exactly what the retainer page says, every month. Backlinks, external SEO, paid ads management, AI-generated UGC video, none of those. They sit outside every offer and we refer them to specialists.
“Same shape every month. No scope creep. No surprise invoices.”

The founder · 04
Stocks Local runs two lanes from one desk. Custom and headless Shopify and Next.js storefronts for product brands, with the deepest experience in home wellness and recovery tech. And two-week custom Launch Sites for ambitious businesses in any sector, from studios and clinics to trades and local companies.
Every build ships with conversion-led design, GEO, and on-page SEO from day one, so clients get cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews instead of lost in them. Every website is designed, built, and launched by the same hands. When you email, you hear back from the person doing the work.
Tyler founded the studio in 2025, at twenty, and shaped it around a small client list with direct access on every project. UK base, working globally.
