The Business

Vermon, a leading B2B e-commerce store, sought to elevate their online presence and streamline their sales processes by partnering with Optimum7. Their objective was to develop a highly customized and user-friendly e-commerce platform on BigCommerce. This collaboration aimed to create a visually striking and functional store that would cater specifically to Vermon’s unique business needs and enhance their customer experience.

The new store setup included advanced search and filter capabilities, allowing customers to easily navigate through Vermon’s extensive product range. Additionally, a custom product configurator was developed to enable customers to personalize their product selections according to their preferences. The project also incorporated a conditional custom checkout process designed to reduce cart abandonment rates and improve the overall purchasing experience.

A key component of the project was the integration of a “Request a Quote” feature with Salesforce, streamlining the customer inquiry and sales process. Optimum7 also focused on Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) to increase the percentage of website visitors who complete desired actions, ultimately driving higher sales and improving customer satisfaction.
