THE CHALLENGE
Secrets of the Tribe had the products (547+ SKUs), the reviews (4.9 stars from 2,700+ customers), and the rankings (3,600+ keywords). What they didn’t have was an ecommerce experience that matched. Their basic Shopify template couldn’t support product discovery for a 300+ item catalog, and competitors like Gaia Herbs ($50M+ revenue) were pulling ahead on brand perception. In a wellness category where trust is visual, their site was costing them conversions.
What we did
- Competitive Analysis: 31-page strategic comparison against Gaia Herbs covering UX, pricing, product architecture, and market positioning
- SEO Research: Keyword opportunity mapping and content gap analysis
- UX/UI Design: Complete homepage redesign, collection page templates, product page optimization, and mobile-first layouts
- CRO Architecture: Trust signal placement, conversion pathway design, and call-to-action strategy
- Development Specs: Detailed requirements for ESEO Space to build custom Shopify functionality
