Incorporating a strategic suite of app integrations, ENCYPHERS seamlessly elevated miRi's Shopify store.

To enhance upselling, the Assortion app was integrated, allowing miRi to offer enticing bundles and related products. The Search & Discovery app streamlined product discovery by implementing advanced filtering options, enriching the overall search experience. Flexible payment options were introduced through the Klarna app, offering customers a "Buy Now Pay Later" choice. To efficiently manage online ads, ENCYPHERS integrated the Triplewhale app, ensuring targeted visibility. The Klaviyo app was employed for robust email marketing, enabling miRi to craft personalized and impactful campaigns. Finally, the Webwinkelkeur app facilitated the gathering and display of customer reviews, further enhancing miRi's online credibility.

UI & UX

The overhaul of miRi's Shopify store extended beyond technical integrations, delving into the critical realm of User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) design. ENCYPHERS placed a premium on crafting a digital space that not only showcased miRi's home furnishings elegantly but also provided visitors with an intuitive and enjoyable journey. New landing pages were meticulously designed, leveraging dynamic content and meta fields to ensure each section of the website felt tailored to the user's preferences. A significant breakthrough was the introduction of add-on options, allowing customers to curate and build personalized packages. This not only empowered users to tailor their shopping experience but also added a layer of customization that resonated with miRi's commitment to providing unique and cozy home furnishings. The UI enhancements embraced a minimalist aesthetic, ensuring that the design harmonized with miRi's brand identity while prioritizing clarity and simplicity, leading to an interface that was both visually appealing and easy to navigate.

The mobile-first design approach and subsequent desktop optimization further emphasized the commitment to a seamless user experience across all devices. By optimizing the website for mobile users, ENCYPHERS ensured that miRi's products were showcased elegantly on smaller screens, catering to the evolving preferences of a mobile-centric audience. The resulting UI & UX improvements not only elevated the aesthetic appeal of the online store but also contributed to heightened user satisfaction and increased engagement.
