Challenges

After a successful decade serving computer experts in the hardware and network equipment niche, Raika33 decided to shift its focus to flash memory, hard drives, and notebooks. The primary challenge was aligning their website development with this new objective. They began with limited customer data and needed to revamp their online presence.

Solutions

Raika’s journey to transform its online store was a comprehensive one. Here’s how they tackled their challenges:

1. Customer Insights Gathering:
   Raika initiated a series of meetings to gather additional data from customers. This helped them gain a clearer understanding of their goals for the online shift.
2. Goal Prioritization:
   With insights from customers, they worked closely with their marketing team to prioritize objectives. This, in turn, guided the website’s design and implementation process.
3. Wireframing and Redesign: Wireframing was employed to reimagine and optimize traditional procedures. The focus was on simplifying navigation for customers interested in flash memory, hard drives, and notebooks, enabling clear and swift comparisons and purchases.
4. User Experience Enhancement:
   After defining processes and services, Raika integrated the color red from their brand identity into the design. Red, symbolizing courage and danger, was used judiciously to convey a sense of courage to customers.
5. Visual Aesthetics: The design process emphasized simplicity while ensuring visually pleasing images. They conducted standard and high-quality product photography to provide top-notch product images.
6. Dedicated Discounts Section: In collaboration with the marketing team, Raika established a dedicated discounts section. Here, the strategic use of red and green colors was employed. The prominence of green conveyed a sense of a good deal, while the inclusion of red from the brand identity added urgency. Rounded edges were used to balance the design and avoid overuse of red.

  The transformation of Raika’s online store led to several positive outcomes:
• Customers found it easier to navigate the website, resulting in increased sales of flash memory, hard drives, and notebooks.
