How We Increased Conversion Rate by 84%

By Rebuilding Trust & Product Storytelling

The brand had a loyal customer base and years of credibility. The shopping experience had not kept up — and new visitors were being asked to read before they were given a reason to care.

The challenge

Credibility earned offline, lost on the page.

Brand had built a loyal customer base and established credibility through years of operation, media mentions, and customer testimonials. However, the shopping experience had become outdated and relied heavily on long-form content, making it difficult for new visitors to quickly understand the product’s value.

The site generated interest, but the customer journey lacked structure, modern design standards, and conversion-focused messaging needed to maximize sales.

What the audit found

Six problems, in the order they cost money.

01

Weak First Impression

The homepage opened with a generic hero section that did little to communicate why visitors should trust or purchase the products.

02

Text-Heavy Experience

Large blocks of content required significant reading before customers could understand the benefits of pheromone products.

03

Limited Product Storytelling

Products were displayed early in the experience without sufficient context, emotional appeal, or education around desired outcomes.

04

Poor Visual Hierarchy

Important information such as testimonials, media features, guarantees, and benefits competed for attention rather than working together to support conversion.

05

Outdated Brand Perception

While the products had credibility, the visual experience did not reflect the premium nature of the brand or inspire confidence among modern shoppers.

06

Lack of Guided Customer Journey

Visitors were left to navigate information independently rather than being guided through a structured buying journey.

Before and after

The same product, argued differently.

The Pheromones storefront homepage before the redesign Before

The original experience relied heavily on lengthy educational content and product listings. While informative, the site required visitors to invest significant time before understanding the benefits and value of the products.

Trust signals existed but were disconnected from the overall buying journey.

  • Product-first layout
  • Long educational sections
  • Weak emotional connection
  • Limited product storytelling
  • Delayed trust building

The redesigned experience immediately communicates the desired outcome, introduces credibility early, and guides visitors through a structured conversion journey.

From hero messaging to product discovery, social proof, FAQs, and guarantees, every section was redesigned to reduce friction and increase purchase confidence.

  • Lifestyle-focused storytelling
  • Stronger trust signals
  • Clear value proposition
  • Improved product discovery
  • Conversion-focused customer journey

“The redesign helped us modernize our entire customer experience without losing the credibility we had built over the years. Customers can now understand our products faster, navigate the store more easily, and move through the buying process with far more confidence. The difference in presentation and overall experience is remarkable.”

Before you ask

Questions about this engagement.

The audit found an outdated, text-heavy shopping experience that asked new visitors to read before it gave them a reason to care. The rebuild led with customer outcomes instead of product features, restructured content into a clear flow that progressively answers questions, and integrated social proof, media mentions, reviews and guarantees throughout the journey. Conversion rate went from 1.3% to 2.4%.

Five weeks, on Shopify. The work covered a complete experience redesign: outcome-focused messaging, dedicated shopping paths for men and women, a clearer information hierarchy and a mobile-optimised shopping experience.

A CRO audit, a Shopify redesign and UX optimization. The audit diagnosed why a fragrance brand with years of credibility was converting at 1.3%; the redesign and UX work rebuilt the store around trust and product storytelling.

Yes — add-to-cart rate rose 31% (9.8% to 12.8%) and average order value rose 26% ($54 to $68), measured before and after the rebuild.

No single result is typical. This store started from an outdated experience with strong offline credibility, which left unusual headroom. Every store's numbers depend on where it starts, which is why each engagement begins with an audit rather than a promise.

+84% Conversion Rate, this project 1.3% → 2.4% after the rebuild. Measured, not modelled.

Every one of these started as an audit.
