Our company Sells with Shopify in a DTC & B2B capacity online & in brick-and-mortar stores. We hope to update and revamp our existing website to attract more customers and to optimize tools and efficiencies.
We are currently working on a migration of data for our B2B business and need to ensure continuity with our 300 + B2B clients.
We would like to work with students to optimize our website and migrate to a new B2B system
that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users. This will be achieved through common third party apps such as Spark Layer and a few other tools available on Shopify.
This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Auditing the website for noticeable improvements
- Improving and testing UX
- Migrating Sales data to a new B2B interface.
- Optimizing the site for cost efficiency and usability.
- Providing training on updating and maintaining the website.
Bonus steps in the process would also include:
- Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:
- Understanding of website platform options
- Understand the needs of a b2b business
- Identification of the most suitable apps to work in shopify
- Recommendations for website maintenance
Bonus steps would include:
- Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input
Final deliverables should include
- A website prototype.
- A final report.
