How do we increase the sales conversations of a Global Luxury fashion brand by 5%
The checkout process at Burberry had a number of redundancies. The logic is that if we remove these redundancies it will speed up the checkout process resulting in a increased converstion rate.



Challenges/Problems Statement


Checkout at Burberry similar to most e-commerce sites is a multi-step process. Here’s what an non registered user goes through to place an order.

6 redirections. 20 steps. 27 questions. At least 38 actions. Yeah, just to buy Trench coat... That’s crazy. 🤕

My solution was to take these 38 actions and break them down into 6 easy steps resulting in a conversion uplift of 5% equivalent to millions in sales
