How Convertcart helped Apliiq enhance user experience and boost revenue

When you partner with Convertcart, not only do you get a purpose-built platform to drive more conversions, you get a team of experts to help you identify opportunities, execute experiments, and drive real results.

- Ian Gruber, CEO, Apliiq

Apliiq is a California-based print-on-demand eCommerce store that helps customers design their own apparels. The website visitors select a base garment and couple it with Apliiq’s services across cutting and sewing, printing, stitching, labels, embroidery, etc.

It is a high-engagement website and success relies on quick product discovery, easy navigation, and a seamless buying experience.

Naturally, Ian Gruber, their CEO is always on the lookout for ways to improve their website’s conversion rates.

The Objective

The team at Apliiq was no stranger to CRO. Having researched, tried, and tested several tools themselves, they saw a wide gap between what was promised and ultimately delivered.

The management consisted of individuals who understood the nature of hypothesis testing and most importantly, the science behind it.

Ian knew exactly what he wanted when he met Convertcart: he wanted to make sure the website does a great job at communicating their USPs — and turned more visitors into buyers.

The Key Results

Convertcart’s reviewed Apliiq’s user behavior using deep funnel analytics — to identify the top areas that caused friction for shoppers.

Fast forward two years and hundreds of improvements, here’s how things have changed:

Let’s break down how Convertcart helped Apliiq enhance user experience across the board.

Making top-converting pages easily discoverable

PROBLEM

The top converting pages were not highlighted in the navigation bar, or the hero image of the website. Shoppers had to complete 5 to 7 scrolls to reach a not-so-easy-to-read-message.

SOLUTION

Convertcart reworked the homepage, and made sure the top-converting pages appeared within the first scroll. The UI and copy were polished to drive the right message home at a glance.

Making top-converting pages easily discoverable

This campaign increased awareness of Apliiq’s USPs by pulling 50% more traffic to these pages — increasing the average order value by 21% and the average revenue by $ 5590 a month.

Implementing subtle conversion triggers

PROBLEM

Buyers often found it difficult to navigate to the product they viewed/customized earlier — as they were interspersed among various customization options. Navigation was a pain.

SOLUTION

Convertcart suggested a non-intrusive “Recently viewed” button — that expands to a summarized vertical strip.

Shoppers can now easily review, compare, and purchase products — boosting Apliiq’s average orders by 16.5% (clicked and converted) and the average revenue by $ 5039/month.

Nudging bulk purchases

PROBLEM

Apliiq already had a compelling bulk discount matrix across designs, based on the simple principle: buy more, save more!
But many users did not stop to see the matrix while checking out, and missed out on purchasing more to avail a discount.

SOLUTION

Convertcart highlighted the additional quantity to be purchased — and the corresponding savings, and shoppers started taking notice.

This campaign made users more aware of savings on bulk order — increasing the average orders (click and converted) by 32% and the average revenue by $ 10,000 a month.

Fostering design-driven growth

PROBLEM

The top product category was not featured in a prominent way on the homepage, and also scored low on the aesthetic appeal.

SOLUTION

Convertcart enhanced the user interface — to make sure the top selling categories get more attention.

With an enhanced visual appeal, the conversion rate of the hot-selling products skyrocketed.
