Artpointone, known for its vibrant customized phone cases, was struggling to convert users. Mobile conversion rates lingered at 2.2%, and desktop performance was stuck at 5%. While traffic numbers looked promising, the sales funnel had cracks that couldn’t be ignored.
The task was clear: uncover why users weren’t converting and rebuild a journey that turned browsers into buyers. Our goal wasn’t just incremental growth but a leap forward, setting a benchmark for both mobile and desktop experiences.
