The approach
01Top-shelf design
Partaking in high-end spirits deserves a high-end experience. The Spiritless team committed early to creating a distinct brand. So when the first pass at their site design needed a lift - we stepped in. Our experience working with merchants in early start-up phases afforded us the know-how to dig deep and find the flexibility within their existing Shopify theme and push it to the limit. We uncovered opportunities to better showcase the brand and launch an unmistakable shopping experience.
02The perfect mix, retail + wholesale
We channelled our mixology powers to increase visibility of the Spiritless wholesale offering within their D2C site. To create a seamless and sensible funnel for selling and servicing wholesale customers online we developed easy account creation, customer tag structures, personalized content and prefix order and invoice processes. From draft orders and account approval to free samples for wholesalers, Spiritless is now able to automate and manage wholesale business from their Shopify admin.
The impact
01Now Selling: Wholesale
Capitalizing on opportunities for distribution is vital for any start-up. Adding wholesale to their site allowed Spiritless to meet this new customer demand and increase sales while creating internal efficiencies by eliminating manual processes.
02Content critical for new products
Competition is stiff in the distilled spirits vertical. Informing and empowering consumers is essential for Spiritless to continue to gain traction. By customizing their existing theme to allow for multi-visual content sections and leveraging blog sections to create recipe pages, Spiritless can easily create and publish a wide range of content.
