We face a number of challenges online 
• Long development cycles 
• Being able to stay agile with our marketing campaigns 
• A growing number of mobile users to optimize for 
• Changes to our site that require testing and validation 
• Providing an engaging customer experience
We use optimization and personalization to achieve key objectives 
• Creating an engaging experience 
• Optimizing the user experience to increase conversions 
• Sidestepping our development cycle to remain agile 
• Generating new relationships with users to grow into 
long-term customers
27 
Improving the product page to increase engagement 
Bringing photo thumbnails to the front resulted in a 
3.3% uplift in conversions
28 
Creating size tiles on mobile to optimize UX 
Changing the drop 
down to a size tile is 
creating a better mobile 
user experience
29 
Changing how prices are displayed on category pages 
Encouraging users to 
hover over the individual 
products to find out the 
price will increase 
overall engagement 
on the site and increase 
click throughs.
30 
Highlighting last delivery dates 
Leading up to the 
holiday season, the last 
date people could order 
to receive their items 
was clearly visible
31 
Encouraging new users to join our mailing lists 
Layered on top of our 
site to increase sign ups 
and drive long-term 
engagement 
Email sign up layers have 
led to an average 19.3% 
uplift in conversion rate
32 
Targeting users with their nearest store 
If users were in a city 
with a Belstaff store, a 
layer was shown 
informing them of their 
nearest store.
33 
Special offers for VIP customers 
Offering engaged visitors who had never converted a free gift 
with their first purchase increased new customer acquisition
Future plans
35 
Future plans 
• Localizing size information 
on PDP size dropdown 
• Matching offline VIP 
treatment online
36 
More future plans 
• Highlight stock availability 
on product landing pages 
• Personalize landing page 
based on gender
