Challenges

The biggest challenge for the BlueBash team was to justify the Sebamed market & brand value. SebamedUSA already has a vast customer base and popularity. We begin with understanding all possible use cases for existing customers and then meet new user expectations without compromising on usability and user experience.

Other challenges were like:

  • Client wanted centralize inventory and pricing control for physical stores, eBay, Amazon, and sebamedusa.com.
  • Checkout was unstable and had many errors with a lower conversion rate.
  • Pages of the website were taking more time to load and were affecting the user experience.
  • The search ability for the product was not implemented.
  • Different new features and enhancements of the existing features in the application were required.
  • Upgrading the Spree & Rails versions without affecting the user experience or customer base so that ROI can be on the higher side.

Solutions

We thoroughly analyzed the requirements of SebmedUSA and provided proposed solutions to the client. Since this was an e-commerce platform meant for the mass crowd, it was crucial to categorize the products and offerings appropriately and ease user navigation. With a strong structure in place, we greatly reduced the bounce rate from the website and successfully pushed ROI towards growth. Our team made a roadmap to solve all problems, including centralized pricing and inventory.
