The Problem

Cart Abandonment: A significant number of users add items to their carts but exit the mobile site before completing the purchase.

Third-Party Competition: Potential customers are opting for external marketplaces over the official site, likely due to better-perceived reliability or pricing.

Lack of Authenticity: The current "template-like" design feels generic, making the brand appear less credible or unique to the consumer.

Mobile User Experience (UX): The existing mobile interface fails to create an engaging or seamless journey that encourages conversion.

User Journey

UX Theme

The shopping experience currently does not provide an immersive online shopping experience similar to the Letterkenny show. Games of Thrones, in our competitive analysis, provide a good experience for view lovers; they use different elements in the show on their website to make it more interactive. Another website which is doing a good job is the Harry Potter website, the backgrounds, buttons, frames, and navigation bars provide the users with an experience inside the Harry Potter show. We want to create a similarly immersive experience for Letterkenny lovers by adding different Letterkenny elements, themes and little surprises on the page to amaze the website users.
