A BUSINESS WITHOUT ITS OWN WEBSITE OR ONLINE SALES
A maker of designer handmade mittens approached us to establish online product sales.
At the start of our collaboration, the business had neither its own website nor an Instagram page.
The main task was to create an effective online sales channel and meet seasonal demand ahead of the New Year holidays.
We developed a website, prepared an advertising strategy and launched promotion through Facebook and Instagram.
WE BUILT A WEBSITE THAT HELPS TURN VISITORS INTO BUYERS
The first stage was developing a website to sell designer mittens.
We emphasized visual product presentation, distinctive design and handmade details.
We structured the landing page so visitors could quickly explore the range, understand the product benefits and submit an enquiry.
We paid particular attention to product photography and an easy ordering process.
- Visual product presentation
- Clear catalogue structure

ADVERTISING EFFECTIVENESS GOES BEYOND COST PER ENQUIRY
In this project, both the advertising strategy and handling potential buyers played an important role.
The client had a competitive offer, attractive prices and sales experience. We also advised on handling enquiries.
With this combined approach, enquiry-to-sale conversion reached 60%. This produced 1 164 sales at an average customer acquisition cost of approximately $3,75.
FROM NO ONLINE SALES TO OVER A THOUSAND ORDERS
We built a website, launched Facebook and Instagram campaigns, tested advertising hypotheses and scaled effective combinations.
We generated 1 940 enquiries, of which 1 164 resulted in a sale.
Total product sales revenue was 1 047 600 UAH.
This case study shows how product presentation, an effective landing page and an advertising strategy can help a seasonal business establish online sales.
