SoleTherapy.ae is an online shoe store based in the UAE serving men, women, and children. The website has a wide range of shoes, from sneakers, sandals, loafers, wedges, flip-flops, and trainers to orthotic insoles. With a carefully sourced range of international brands such as Skechers, FitFlop, Hoka, Vivobarefoot, Oofos, Oliver, Aetrex, and SoleTherap, it combines quality with comfort. The website also entices shoppers with seasonal sales (30%–70% off), free delivery, easy returns, and buy-now-pay-later terms, all making shopping easy online.
Even with a strong product offering, SoleTherapy encountered several challenges in expanding its online business:
1. No high-performance, user-friendly website that could handle high traffic and sales.
2. Frustrating brand messaging and visual identity, resulting in an inconsistent user experience.
3. Limited product filtering and searching, impacting product discoverability.
4. Poor mobile responsiveness is creating pain points for mobile shoppers.
5. Payment gateway, logistics, and marketing automation integration needs.
6. High cart abandonment rates as a result of an elaborate checkout process.
