Case Study: E-Commerce & Branding

2021

Introduction

Demar Leather is a family owned international leather manufacturer and supplier for retail and hospitality industries.

 

The Challenge

Demar need a serious reboot with their brand and online presence. Their website showcases more than 2000 unique leather finishes for clients choose from. A classic case of Hick’s Law. It was difficult for visitors to find what they were looking for and get the samples they needed quickly.  With so many choices, it needed a reorganization, and visual upgrade.

 

Solution

We focused on the users’ needs and how to best meet their goals. By placing a spotlight on the best offerings and most-visited pages, we reduced the time and effort of the customer journey. We introduced a rebrand including a new brand color, logo, sample presentations, and a complete new look and re-org of their site.
