Dorado Fashion Increased eCommerce Conversion Rate Using VWO

At an organizational level, Dorado Fashion wanted to increase sales and identify experience breakages in their existing website through continuous and robust testing. The aim was also to improve conversions for their store from different social channels. 

Each of the tests discussed here had a different end goal:

Test  1: Increasing Average Order Value (AOV)

Test  2: Increasing overall business conversions

Dorado Fashion, in collaboration with VWO Services, ran a series of tests  to optimize their website and improve conversions. Discussed below are various campaigns that helped Dorado Fashion increase their eCommerce conversion rate:

Test  1: Adding bundle offer in the mini cart, on all devices

Objective: Increasing Average Order Value (AOV)

Observation: High drop-off on the checkout page was leading to a high cart abandonment rate. The probable causes were :

• The absence of offers to potential customers when 1 product is added to the cart
• No saving amount being shown to potential customers to make them complete a purchase
• Customer confusion between the total amount they are saving and any additional discounts
  

Hypothesis: The team at Dorado Fashion hypothesized that providing discount offers upfront on the checkout page would result in reduced drop-offs. With the aim of increasing AOV by incentivizing additional product purchases, a notice “You are 1 product away to get Extra 30% Off” was added in the variation.

Results: The test ran for 26 days and the variation won with a 14.14% increase in clicks to the Thank You page, and the variation was made live for the entire audience. 

Test  2 – Redesigning the search icon for Mobile Device

Objective: Increasing overall business conversions

Observation: The Dorado Fashion team ran heatmaps on the homepage and noticed that 30% of the visitors clicked on the search icon but only 1% searched for the products. This was primarily because the search results were inaccurate, and additionally, heatmaps using VWO Insights indicated that visitors were getting distracted by the background. 

Hypothesis: By directing visitors’ focus only on the search bar, and by helping them with popular searches (which can be controlled) visitors would land on desired landing pages, thereby, increasing overall business conversions.

Results: The test ran through VWO Testing for 33 days and the variation won with a 26.55% increase in conversion rate compared to control.
