Delightful Deliveries, the leading Gift Basket web site offers unique gift items,
such as corporate gift baskets, gourmet food items, and delicious deserts, to
thousands of customers worldwide. As a pure internet retailer, Delightful Deliveries
understands the importance of providing a seamless, visually engaging online
experience to its customers. Delightful Deliveries was seeking a solution that
would improve the visual representation of its product line, streamline the management
and production of this digital imagery, and improve website performance for its
low-bandwidth customers.
Best Practices:
| · |
Improve online visual product presentation by
adding zoom and pan for greater product detail |
| · |
Reduce time and costs by dynamically re-sizing
imagery, streamlining web production process |
| · |
Improve customer shopping experience through
optimized imagery |
Delightful Deliveries implemented Scene7’s Dynamic Imaging solution to
automatically generate optimized imagery and navigational elements for its e-commerce
website. The company has added Scene7’s zoom to enhance the visualization
of its product line, in order to provide customers with the visual information
needed to make a purchase decision, and reduce the rate of returns.
Scene7’s Dynamic Imaging allows customers to zoom quickly and interactively
on high-resolution product details providing enhanced visual information and
an interactive shopping experience. Showing visual details of Delightful Deliveries’ unique
gift items, such as corporate gift baskets, gourmet food items, and delicious
deserts, is helping differentiate the retailer from its competition. “We
sell many similar products to our competitors and having a better visual representation
of the item can be the single difference between a sale and a lost opportunity,” said
Eric Lituchy, President of Delightful Deliveries.
Scene7’s rich media platform dynamically generates and delivers unlimited
derivatives from high quality single master images, allowing companies to speed
time to market and drastically reduce image production costs. These image derivatives
are optimized to ensure the fastest delivery regardless of the customers’ bandwidth,
preserving image quality while improving site performance for those customers
with slow connection speeds.
In addition, Scene7’s Dynamic Imaging is also enabling Delightful Deliveries
to reduce its image production and publishing costs by centralizing its image
management and production into one location and making it easier for Delightful
Deliveries to work with images supplied from vendors and partners. Scene7’s
Dynamic Imaging enables the Delightful Deliveries web production team to automatically
re-purpose desired imagery optimized for improved website performance. This reduces
the overall number of images under management, and allows Delightful Deliveries
to keep website imagery fresh and up-to-date, without manual processes, greatly
reducing the associated time and costs.
Results:
Scene7’s Dynamic Imaging solution is directly contributing to and increase
in revenues of over 90%, a reduction in returns of 10%, and a reduction in overall
production time and costs of over 50%. In addition, Scene7’s dynamic imaging
has significantly improved website performance over 20%, while giving Delightful
Deliveries customers enhanced visual information to help drive a purchase decision.
Dynamically re-purposing imagery in different sizes has resulted in significant
web production time and cost savings, and has enabled Delightful Deliveries to
focus on bringing an enhanced shopping experience for its customers.
“Since implementing Scene7’s Zoom, our customers can now see for
the first time the visual details and quality features of our product line, directly
contributing to an increase in sales of over 90%, while reducing returns by 10%,” said
Lituchy. “We’ve also noted improvements in performance of over 20% – making
it easier for customers who don’t yet have broadband to shop on our site,
and because Scene7 can automatically re-size and optimize the images from single
masters, we only have to worry about getting a single high-quality image from
our partners. This has reduced the number of images under management, resulting
in time and costs reductions of over 50%.”
