Final Project FASM 415-A02/WINTER 2021 Brianna Hanson/Jade Wild/Emilia Torrebiarte Neuweiler
8 Features of E-commerce Ubiquity: Good Accessible everywhere, website and mobil site are cohesive and easy to use There isn't an app - which we would recommend adding in the future when the company is more developed because it is even easier to use than a website on a mobile device
Global Reach: Poor Shipping of product is only available in the US, although the website is accessible anywhere
Universal Standards: Excellent The site is user friendly and consistent throughout
Richness: Good Small product selection No curated "Recommended for you" No login option There is a pop up to enter your email as well as in the footer on the webpage Can filter items by men, women, unisex, color, and size site is visually engaging although not personalized
Interactivity: Good No chatbox, but homepage has some gif content, you can hover over products to view alternative images There is an about section explaining the brand’s values, as well as a blog, and a slideshow of instagram photos. Users can also read customer reviews, as well as the headlines from reputable sources such as Vogue. The mouse cursor turns into a recycle symbol in some places.
Information Density: Excellent Information is clear and well explained. Icons used to help make it easy to browse product qualities and features. Information is not overwhelming, but gives lots of insight into the products, as it is easy to find pages giving more detailed information.
Personilization and Customization: Poor Customized messages not used on the website or social media. All content is curated to their target customer as a whole.
Social Technology: Good Featured posts from Instagram on their homepage. Also has accounts on Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, TikTok and Twitter. There is not a link for their Facebook, Pinterest or TikTok on their website, but there is a link for all other social media, and the social media has the link back to their website. All their content is cohesive with the brand aesthetic and message.
Strengths: Engaging web design Beautiful packaging Diverse models Strong copywriting Easy to navigate layout Multiple ways to get to the product page and the rewards page Androgynous fashion oriented - the future of fashion
Weaknesses: Small social media presence No membership program, no personalized content Small product assortment Few invitations to get on the brand’s mailing list / engage with social media Low incentive rewards program - only a couple dollars off new product when you return old product
