A 216digital Case Study
Artificial Plants And Trees, an online retailer of faux plants and furniture, faced the challenge of making their vast and complex product catalog (30,000 SKUs) mobile-friendly to remain competitive. Their outdated website was not optimized for mobile users, creating a significant barrier to sales. They partnered with the vendor 216digital for a comprehensive website redesign and development project, utilizing the Miva Merchant platform.
216digital implemented a mobile-first design featuring innovative slide-out panels for product options, a dynamic slim header for easy navigation, and a streamlined checkout process. They integrated advanced functionalities like a simplified wishlist, personalized product recommendations via 4-Tell, live inventory display, and a Google Trusted Store badge. The solution eliminated redundant third-party modules by fully leveraging Miva's built-in features. The owner, Doug Hopeman, reported that the new site's usability provided a significant competitive edge, improving the customer experience and making the store more nimble for marketing efforts.
