Problem

GiftTree faced challenges with their information architecture, making it difficult for the users navigate through the website. To meet growing demand for personalized gift baskets, a flexible customization system was developed, allowing customers to choose items, add personal messages, select date of delivery and select packaging. To handle high-volume orders during peak seasons, they needed a robust system to bulk upload the orders from corporate customers with all shipping addresses to be different. They also wanted all orders to go through their custom built WMS system from Shopify Plus. Not only that the conversion rate improvement and customer experience improvement was an ongoing challenge for them.
