Our Process

Problem

Soft Passions encountered a problem with its initial advertising. Although website traffic was high, conversion rates were low. Many visitors left without making purchases, showing a lack of engagement and a poor user experience.

Objective

  • Increase revenue and sales.
  • Boost conversion rates.
  • Enhance brand awareness.
  • Optimize user experience on the website to facilitate smoother transactions.

Strategy

At first, we focused on running lingerie ads because of restrictions on adult products. Although the e-commerce store attracted a lot of traffic, it wasn’t converting well. We found that the low conversion rates were due to issues with the website and branding. To fix this, we created a new logo and redesigned the website with a modern look and effective CTA buttons. We improved site navigation, strategically placed products, and added interactive features. The CTA buttons were designed with a gradient color scheme and dynamic sizing to encourage clicks. We also used advanced tracking and analytics to make data-driven decisions and made ongoing site improvements. Additionally, we developed a personalized quiz and introduced subscription options for products like vitamins, which helped increase customer retention.

 

Results

We updated Soft Passions’ website and marketing strategies to boost sales and customer satisfaction. These changes improved site navigation and purchase processes, leading to higher conversion rates. Optimizing the homepage with key product placements increased visibility and encouraged purchases. Rebranding, including a new logo and targeted ads, enhanced brand awareness and appeal to male buyers shopping for partners. Personalized quizzes and subscription options improved customer retention, while advanced tracking and analytics allowed for ongoing refinements to maintain high engagement and conversion rates.

Marketing Adaptation

We refined Soft Passions Google Ads campaigns to align with user personas, focusing on the nuanced interests of both male and female customers. To address societal stigmas surrounding adult toys, particularly for male purchasers, we created promotional content to break these barriers. We continuously monitored user interactions through heat mapping and analytics, using these insights to further refine website elements and advertising strategies, ensuring ongoing optimization and effectiveness.

User Experience Enhancements

In our redesign, we paid special attention to the call-to-action (CTA) buttons, recognizing their role in guiding users toward conversion. We created visually appealing buttons with a gradient color scheme transitioning from orange to darker red and purple, making them stand out on the page. To enhance usability, we designed the buttons to grow in size and included an outer glow effect to indicate they were clickable. This design drew attention and encouraged users to take action, whether adding products to their cart or signing up for subscriptions. We also introduced easy-to-navigate categories with engaging visuals, simplifying the process of finding and purchasing products. We implemented a subscription tool offering discounts and encouraging newsletter sign-ups and repeat visits. Lastly, we developed bundled product offerings, simplifying purchasing decisions and increasing the average order value. By optimizing these elements, we significantly improved user interaction and overall conversion rates.
