Project background and description

Project icon

Michael is an creative entrepreneur located in Asheville, North Carolina, US.

He makes beautifull clothes since the early 80’s.

Most of his products are One of a Kind, meaning there are not more than one product of a certain item in the world.

Michael came to me to help him move his Etsy shop to his own platform so he can have full control over his customers experience.

Today, his work can be found in select boutiques from Asheville, NC to Beverly Hills, CA.

The shop

I’ve made the shop layout simple and intuitive by showcasing on each category a picture of one item located inside the category.

Category section

This section shows to costumers all the products located inside a category.

At the top of every category page we decided to add a banner showcasing a model dressed with clothes from the same category.

Product page

I’ve choosen for the product page a simple layout with thumbnails bellow the main image.

This type of layout converts better, because the majority of customers are used to it.

Newsletter section

The Newsletter section helps to capture new leeds and potential customers to advertise the products, plus offers another channel for Manifest Color team to comunicate with their customers.

One of a kind

I’ve added a badge for every one of a kind item with the label “Limited”.

This shows to costumers that this types of products has only one item in stock.

Customer account

We’ve separated customers in separated accounts in order to offer discounts for big shops that want to purchase products in large amounts.

The checkout process

For the checkout section, I’ve choosed a very simple and intuitive interface.

Since Michael and his team just started selling online we need to make sure the checkout is as easy as possible to use.

Affiliate area

I’ve added an affiliate area, to help Manifest Color increase sales. Affliates will refer website visitors and soon as one of those visitors turn into a customer, Manifest Color will give a share of the sale to the affiliate partner.
