SPRINT 002 / DAY 05/05 Paris · Baudile Brands Studio · April 2026
Brand-builder agency Cosmetics + DTC Client sprint

The team manages Shopify, runs the analysis, ships its own tools. In 5 days.

Baudile is a Paris-based brand-building studio. They co-create and operate cosmetics and lifestyle brands, with stock in France, China, Thailand, Japan, and the US. The team had to call engineering for every Shopify section, every Amazon stock pull, every Meta Ads tweak. After the sprint, they run all three on their own. The internal app they built during the sprint now ships to every brand they operate.

The setup

An operator team. A pile of dashboards. No code.

Baudile co-creates and operates cosmetics and lifestyle brands. Each brand has its own Shopify, its own Amazon listings, its own Meta Ads stack. The operator team manages the day-to-day across all of them. None of them write code.

So every Shopify section needed a freelance dev. Every Amazon FBA stock pull was a CSV exported by hand. Every Meta Ads tweak meant waiting for the agency. Three operators bottlenecked on three different external dependencies.

The brief was concrete. The team owns Shopify, owns the analysis, owns the ad-ops loop. Five days. Then the same patterns get rolled out to every brand Baudile operates, not just the flagship.

Walk in waiting on devs. Walk out shipping.

DAY 01/05

Shock

Live demo: a fresh Shopify section built end-to-end in 18 minutes from a one-line brief. The operator who watched it asked, "wait, that's it?" The team had been paying a freelancer four figures a month for this exact pattern.

DAY 02/05

Wire the stack

Claude Code on every laptop. MCPs installed and tested. Shopify Admin (theme + Liquid), GA4, Meta Ads. First end-to-end test: a custom Shopify-section build that pulled product specs into a draft PDP. Twelve minutes.

DAY 03/05

Sections + skills

The team built four real Shopify sections during the day, on the flagship brand. Promo banner, ingredient-reveal block, cross-brand cart upsell, multilingual hero. Each one paired with a reusable skill, version-stamped, ready to clone onto every other brand.

The Miracle app

Built and shipped baudile-radar, an internal tool that pipes Miracle (their cross-brand inventory and forecasting service) into a single dashboard, gated by company email. Every brand Baudile operates can now query Miracle without going through the data team.
