The
Customer
WEISSENSTEIN is a German online shop specialising in high-quality bathroom accessories that can be fitted without drilling. What makes it special is that the products can be fitted in just one minute without drilling or causing any damage to walls or tiles. As a D2C brand, WEISSENSTEIN sells its bathroom accessories both directly to end customers and to wholesale customers.
The
Problems
1
Major clients
The particular challenge in the design process was to create a shop that would appeal to both B2C and B2B customers. The design focused on ensuring a straightforward user experience for both target groups.
2
User guidance
A shop’s interface should be as straightforward as possible so that customers of all ages can find their way around quickly. The aim was to provide clear and simple user guidance.
3
Lack of trust
Clear benefits for users, such as free delivery, telephone support, discounts, and clarity regarding payment methods and returns policies, appeal to every customer’s fundamental interests. For this reason, particular emphasis was placed on clear communication in the design.
4
Colour options
All products are available in both black and silver. A clear selection of variants has therefore been implemented, which should be consistent throughout the shop.
5
Slow loading time
A one-second delay results in a 7 per cent drop in the conversion rate! That is why, during the redesign, particular attention was paid to ensuring fast loading times, and unnecessary apps and snippets of code were removed.
6
Understanding the product
What makes WEISSENSTEIN products special is that they can be fitted without drilling. This should also be communicated clearly and in an easy-to-understand way on the product pages.
Our
Solution
The workshop, which Golden Web Age held in collaboration with the clients, also marked the launch of the “WEISSENSTEIN Shop Relaunch” project. The high quality of the products was to be reflected in the shop’s visual identity. It was therefore decided to revamp the shop’s branding and align it with the values we had set for ourselves regarding quality and aesthetics. We developed the initial ideas together with the business owners; further ideas eventually emerged during internal meetings with the designers, graphic designers, copywriters and programmers responsible for the project.
Thanks to several years’ experience in developing e-commerce platforms, we were already able to draw on the results of previous A/B tests. The insights gained from these are also reflected in the design and implementation of the WEISSENSTEIN shop.
Thanks to the redesign of the WEISSENSTEIN shop, all KPIs saw a huge increase within the first four weeks following the relaunch.
"My team and I have received wonderful support from Christian at Golden Web Age. As web services are vital for businesses, this is an incredibly important area that must not be overlooked. The assistance, speed and professionalism shown by Golden Web Age have been superb and exactly what we needed to reach our customers as soon as possible. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Christian’s services for all our website requirements in the future."
"Following a recommendation, we began working with Golden Web Age. Even in the very first A/B tests, we saw a significant increase in the conversion rate. In line with the strategy they developed, we are now carrying out regular testing and unlocking potential in our online shop. Excellent communication, very easy to get hold of, and a very clear structure. Highly recommended!"
"The GWA team led by Christian Waske has been handling the optimisation of our online shop, SEO and online marketing for SoulSpice for several months now. After just a few weeks, we’ve already seen a huge leap forward in these areas. It’s been a really good investment. We particularly appreciate their experience, professionalism and proactive approach."
"Excellent collaboration and an even better result. The agency works in a highly professional and focused manner, contributing its own ideas and suggestions for improvement whilst not simply following the client’s instructions blindly. The work was of a very high standard and the results we wanted were delivered promptly. When the new shop went live, support was available every single minute. Our project was managed by one of the owners (Christian Waske) and, based on our experience with Golden Web Age, we intend to expand our collaboration further. A highly professional, small agency that is absolutely worth the money and completely fair. I’m happy to recommend them."
"Our collaboration with Golden Web Age has always been a resounding success. The team works with great attention to detail and, by asking critical questions, thinks outside the box. This is exactly how we envisage a professional partnership. Highly recommended!"
"I have been working with GWA for a long time and in a wide variety of contexts: for a diverse range of brands and companies, use cases and a wide variety of system and IT requirements. My deadlines have always been tight and my objectives high. And I have always been extremely satisfied with the results delivered. The communication, in particular, is flawless and on an equal footing. I wholeheartedly recommend them and look forward to working on further projects with you!"
"Thanks to Chris and the team! Without you, Lehrer-news.de would never have become so stylish and successful so quickly :) Best wishes from Berlin"
"I had Golden Web Age completely redesign my website. The communication and the implementation were flawless. They’ve taken a lot of the work off my hands, so I can focus on my core business again. I’d book this service again in a heartbeat :-) Thank you all – especially Chris!"
"Excellent, proactive communication and advice, absolutely fair prices, a wide range of expertise and specialist knowledge – I have rarely been so satisfied working with an agency. The customer-focused approach is truly put into practice here; all deadlines are met and usually exceeded; the agency doesn’t just see itself as a service provider that merely carries out instructions, but thinks proactively and makes clever suggestions. I couldn’t have asked for better project management. Young minds who understand what modern websites should be like."
"The advice and service provided in the areas of web design, SEO optimisation and programming, as well as copywriting, are of the very highest standard. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to take their website to the next level! Many thanks"
