Jamil Bhuya: Why Store Owners Can't See Conversion Killers

Episode Summary

The Multi-Industry Entrepreneur Who Spots What Store Owners Miss - "I've been a shitty client myself. I think I know everything. And then after a while, once your ego kind of gets beaten down, you realize maybe I'm too emotionally involved in my own brand."

Episode Notes

Jamil Bhuya has scaled businesses across three wildly different industries: restaurants, beauty, and now Shopify agencies. That multi-industry perspective gives him a unique superpower—he can spot the conversion killers that store owners become blind to. We talked about why fresh eyes matter more than fancy tools, the psychology behind purchase objections, and how being too close to your business destroys your ability to see what customers actually need.
