The lockets sell themselves.
The workflow behind them shouldn’t need two extra hires.

For years Francesca’s growth has been predictable, week on week — until this year, when it wasn’t. In one call we found three concrete frictions behind that shift: a fully manual locket fulfilment process that costs two seasonal hires every peak, a $1M/month Meta program running without AI-assisted analysis, and a website that is invisible to the AI search engines your customers are starting to use instead of Google.

We heard you

Three things you said.

We do not need to imagine the friction. You described it. Here it is reflected back — because solving it starts with making sure you know we actually heard it.

You said

“We have to hire like two Filipino people to do it over our busy periods.”

What we heardThe entire locket fulfilment workflow — pulling the customer’s uploaded image from Shopify, cropping it into the print template, and queuing it — is done by hand. It is a Shopify-API job, not a headcount problem.
You said

“The process that got us here is not going to get us there.”

What we heardThe playbook that built Francesca’s growth has hit its ceiling. Scaling from here needs real-time data behind decisions, not the instinct that worked when growth was predictable.
You said

“Breach of information, something happening to any of the plugins, the website, all the things.”

What we heardBefore connecting any AI tool to real customer and order data, you want a straight answer on where that data goes and who can see it — not a vague reassurance.

The difference

Francesca, running the way
you envisioned it.

Specific to a business like yours — with the complexity, team, and clients you are managing.

Picture your busiest week of the year. A locket order lands in Shopify. Within minutes the image is pulled, cropped, and placed into the print template, then queued for production — no one touching a mouse, no seasonal hires required.

Your $1M/month Meta budget is now backed by an agent that watches your competitors’ top-performing ads, benchmarks your own creative against them, and hands your team a weekly brief — a human always approves the spend, never an autonomous agent.

Someone asks ChatGPT for a personalised locket necklace in Australia, and Francesca is the answer it gives them — because your site now speaks the structured language AI search engines read.

Before we even spoke

We looked at
francesca.com.au.

Before this conversation, we ran a quick audit on your website — checking how Francesca appears to AI search engines. What we found matters, and most businesses have no idea this is happening to them.

Quick audit · francesca.com.au · 14 August 2026Audit complete

Built for browsing. Invisible to AI search.

francesca.com.au is a rich Shopify storefront built to convert browsing shoppers — but when we checked how AI engines read the same pages, most of what makes Francesca distinctive (the $1.25 million in charity giving, 9,000+ five-star reviews, the locket customisation process) is not structured in a way ChatGPT or Google’s AI Overviews can extract and cite.

No structured answer content for AEO
The three-step “Design your locket” process is a natural FAQ/AEO candidate. Right now it is plain page copy with no FAQPage schema, so AI Overviews and ChatGPT cannot lift it as a direct answer.
Trust signals aren’t machine-readable
$1.25 million donated to charity and 9,000+ five-star reviews are two of the strongest trust signals in Australian jewellery e-commerce — but they live in marketing copy, not in Organization or Review schema, so AI engines cannot cite them.
No AEO/GEO layer in place yet
ChatGPT currently has no structured reason to recommend Francesca over a competitor for “personalised locket necklace” or “Australian made jewellery gift.” That share of search is growing, and it is currently uncontested for you.
💡

With schema markup on the locket process, the charity story, and your review volume, Francesca becomes citable in AI search responses within weeks — the same opportunity Mark flagged with you last week.

What we would build

Four projects. Running concurrently.

Your specialist can initiate all four projects from day one when they join Francesca. They run simultaneously, managed by your dedicated PM. The sequencing is handled for you. Your specialist arrives ready to build.
Project 01 · Marketing Intelligence

Meta & Competitor Ad Intelligence

An agent watches every live ad, benchmarks your own Meta spend against your competitors’ top performers, catches creative fatigue before it costs you, and shifts budget toward what’s already winning — a human always approves the spend, never an autonomous agent. See “Since we last spoke” below for what’s changed here.

Turns your $1M/month Meta budget into a data-backed, continuously improving program
Project 02 · Fulfilment Automation

Locket Order Automation

We connect directly into Shopify’s API to pull each locket image the moment an order lands, crop and place it into your print template automatically, and queue the final file for production — the entire manual process replaced end to end.

Removes the need for seasonal hires during your busiest fulfilment periods
Project 03 · AI and Search

AI Search Visibility

We fix the three gaps the audit identified. Your homepage content becomes readable to AI crawlers. Structured answer content goes in so AI engines can extract what Francesca does. Your credentials are wired into structured data that AI search engines can verify, cite, and surface when someone asks for a business like yours.

Francesca visible in AI search — while your competitors are still invisible
Project 04 · Data & Compliance

Private AI Compliance Layer

A dedicated layer sits between your business systems and any AI tool you connect — Claude, ChatGPT, or otherwise — so customer and order data never leaves your control without your knowledge.

A straight answer to the safety question, with your data staying exactly where you want it

Since we last spoke

We kept digging on the ad-spend question.

A quick update for you and your team while this is under review.

Update · Paid social · 1 September 2026New finding

Open-source tooling already built for this exact problem.

You flagged your Meta ad spend as the biggest lever available to you. Since we first spoke, we went looking for the most proven way to act on that — and found it in the same open-source AI agent framework REMAP already builds on for clients. It watches every live ad, catches creative fatigue before it costs you, and shifts budget toward what’s already winning — without adding headcount or replacing your creative team. The same tooling extends cleanly to TikTok the moment that becomes part of your mix.

Fatigue detection, daily
Every live ad checked automatically — flagged before performance drops, not after.
Budget shifts, not budget guesses
Spend reallocates toward what’s already winning, with every change reviewed by a human before it goes live.
One system, ready for TikTok too
Facebook and Instagram reporting and optimisation today, with TikTok ready to plug in the moment you need it.
💡

This slots directly into Project 01 above — it does not replace it, it is the specific engine behind it. If your team wants to see it before deciding anything, we can run it against a sample of your own numbers first. No commitment needed to take a look.

What the audit uncovers

Four projects is where
it starts.

The four projects above are what we identified without looking inside Francesca. The AI Adoption Pathway is what happens when we do.

In month one — running alongside the candidate selection and the four identified projects — your team completes the AI Adoption Pathway surveys. We map every process, every friction point, every place where time is being lost or value is being left on the table.

Andrew holds a strategy session with you at the end of week two to three. What comes out is a prioritised, ROI-ranked plan of AI opportunities specific to Francesca. Not a generic framework. Your plan. Your specialist works from it every week, reviewed every quarter.

The four projects give you momentum from day one. The Pathway gives you direction for everything that follows.
