Collaboration
SimOptions faced several critical challenges that needed attention to maintain competitiveness and trust in the market. The primary issue was the website’s outdated design and issue to effectively explain what an eSIM is and how it works to potential users. Despite strong SEO efforts, the website’s slow performance significantly undermined its activities. The pressing need for modernization was clear, not only to keep pace with competitors, but also to enhance user engagement and retention on the website. Furthermore, with plans to create their mobile app, it was an opportune moment to diversify touchpoints with users. This emphasized the necessity of a comprehensive strategy to revitalize their online presence and ensure readiness for new digital ventures to grow their business even more.
Breakdown of our work
Designing an intuitive user flow
We developed a new user flow that encompasses the entire customer journey, from visiting the website and differentiating the offer to the new checkout. By mapping the flow, we ensured that user goals were met, detected potential bottlenecks, and minimized the need for customer support assistance.
Rebranding
We introduced a completely new logo, design system, and brand-fresh look for the website. Previously, the website predominantly featured blue, making it challenging to differentiate SimOptions offerings. We introduced a color duo - violet for eSIMs and blue for regular SIM card offerings - to diversify the look and feel of the product. The creation of the design involved designing numerous components, but our primary focus was on intuitiveness, ensuring that users could easily select the best solution for their needs.
Brand-fresh front-end solutions
We implemented proper caching and page pre-generation, significantly improving loading times, while our modern approach to asset compilation reduced the site's footprint. These improvements not only elevated the user experience and overall site efficiency, but also positively impacted SEO, thereby reinforcing the client's existing efforts in this domain.
