What to Expect During Your First Discovery Call With a Shopify Agency Partner

What's Really Happening (And How to Prepare) for that first call with a Shopify agency? They can feel like job interviews where nobody's sure who's interviewing whom. They've done hundreds. You've done maybe three. This video levels that playing field. We break down navigating your first partner agency discovery call — not with a script, but with an understanding of what's actually going on beneath the polished small talk.

Here's what we cover:

🔍 What discovery calls actually are (hint: mutual due diligence disguised as friendly conversation)

🧠 What agencies are really evaluating when they ask about your business, budget, and timeline

📋 How to prepare without overthinking it — the numbers and context you should have ready

🚩 Red flags that show up on first calls: quoting before scoping, claiming expertise in everything, pressure tactics

📞 What happens after the call — and what radio silence actually tells you

✅ How to approach the conversation as the one with the leverage (because you are)
Whether you're hiring for a redesign, a migration, or a full build, the first call sets the tone for the entire relationship. Walk in curious but skeptical, friendly but not naive.
