Bold Match is a free matchmaking service designed to connect Shopify merchants with trusted Shopify specialist agencies for design, development, and marketing needs. Founded by Eric Boisjoli and Jay Myers, who previously co-founded Bold Commerce in 2012 and worked with over 100,000 Shopify merchants, the service aims to provide a reliable shortcut to expert partners. The founders built Bold Match out of a desire to give back to the Shopify community, addressing the recurring requests for referrals to reliable agencies. The process involves merchants sharing their needs through a questionnaire, after which a human matchmaker personally hand-picks and recommends three or four best-fit, vetted Shopify agencies. The service is completely free and obligation-free for both merchants and agencies, ensuring unbiased recommendations. Bold Match differentiates itself by emphasizing human expertise over AI algorithms for agency selection, ensuring personalized and trustworthy introductions. Their mission is to help Shopify stores grow without imposing hidden fees or margins on the matching process. They focus on providing honest advice and generous guidance, drawing on years of experience within the Shopify ecosystem. Through its blog and resources, Bold Match also offers valuable insights for Shopify merchants on various topics, including platform migration, e-commerce trends, agency pricing, and hiring strategies, further supporting the community it serves.
