If you are running an eCommerce business, using Shopify, you & your Marketing Team, should be able to make quick changes to your website, without needing help of a developer. That’s the whole point of using Shopify.

🚫 I will strongly recommend NOT using a ⛔Custom Theme⛔, unless you have a very specific & valid reason for doing that, being dependent on your developer.

You can go for any good Shopify theme compatible with Online Store 2.0 where you can easily edit templates using Sections & Blocks. Equally easy should be adding App Blocks for added functionalities.

My recommendation is using one of the most popular themes like: https://themes.shopify.com/themes/dawn/styles/default Need more? Buy additional sections and blocks from https://apps.shopify.com/section-factory $9 one time cost per section. Need even more? Try a paid theme like Debutify Need A/B Testing and other customized experience for different segments? https://shoplift.ai/ can help. Let me know if you want me to connect you with your team.
