The Challenge
The website’s UX and UI elements needed to be throughout the website’s entire delivery funnel. Being outdated the website needed to be optimized to be more mobile friendly, the website needed to be redesigned to be responsive and easy to use for customers. Additionally, the checkout required tweaks and customization to improve the functionality of the checkout, so the checkout could convert more customers. Three Islands was looking to create a more polished design, that would reflect the brand and the type of clientele which buys from the clothing line.
The Approach
The first focus was on the website and the redesign of the website. We designed it from what Three Islands described as their main priorities. Intertwining both best practices with ideas which were given by Three Islands to give a completely unique website design. We worked to make sure that the branding and image of the Three Islands brand were reflected in the site’s design. After the site’s redesign, we then worked to gain business from loyal customers through, email sequences which drastically increased the lifetime values of each customer. Then the site was worked on to ensure complete visibility on all platforms, including Search Engines and Paid Marketing, to increase overall sales and revenue of the company.
Highlight of How We Helped Increase Revenue
