Intertop, a well-established shoe retailer in Ukraine with 114 stores in 25 cities and an online operation that attracts 3.5 million monthly visits, was facing challenges with its ecommerce model. Despite its high growth and rapidly increasing traffic, the company was struggling to simplify the customer journey on its website, increase conversion rates, speed up the introduction of user experience changes, and mitigate risks of damaging the site experience. To address these issues, Intertop engaged CRO and UX agency Turum-burum. The agency initiated their Conversion Rate Optimization program based on step-by-step interface enhancements, a model they call ESR: Evolutionary Site Redesign. The goal was to anchor all proposed website changes on analytical proof and confirm them through A/B testing, a proven way of minimizing risk of rolling out changes that impact the shopping experience.
Intertop is a leading shoe retailer in Ukraine with a 25-year history. The company operates 114 stores across 25 cities and runs an online operation through their brand site, which attracts 3.5 million monthly visits. In 2017, Intertop built out an omnichannel ecommerce model, offering fully-integrated shopping experiences that unite user experiences from brick-and-mortar to mobile-browsing and everything in between. Despite its success, the company was facing challenges with its ecommerce model, particularly in terms of simplifying the customer journey, increasing conversion rates, and speeding up the introduction of user experience changes.
Turum-burum used Hotjar, a behavior analytics tool, to map the customer journey from a user’s perspective. They collected customer feedback using Hotjar's exit-intent pop-up survey, which helped identify errors on Intertop’s checkout page. The survey revealed that 48.6% of 444 respondents were leaving the page because they were unable to place their order. Based on this feedback, Turum-burum reduced the number of checkout fields to three, split the 'Place Order' page into semantic blocks, and added autofill functions for authorized users. These changes were A/B tested and resulted in a 54.68% increase in the conversion rate on the checkout page. Turum-burum also used Hotjar Recordings and Heatmaps to understand pain points in the user journey, particularly with product filtering and product pages. They made improvements to these areas based on the data, which led to significant increases in conversion rates and average revenue per user.
