EYEMAGINE Delivers a Razor-Sharp Magento eCommerce Store
Irvine, CA - September 10th, 2013 - EYEMAGINE has announced the launch of a new online store for Classic Shaving, a cutting-edge supplier of men’s traditional grooming products, straight razors, and shaving cream. Classic Shaving selected EYEMAGINE, a seasoned eCommerce agency with Certified Magento Developers, for a complete website redesign and upgrade to the Magento Enterprise Edition platform.
"ClassicShaving.com turned to EYEMAGINE after two failed website development attempts spanning well over four years and tens of thousands of wasted dollars. Our business had many moving parts but was slowly falling to pieces on an out-dated platform, and we needed to migrate 1500+ products from our old site to a new Magento Enterprise Edition site in real time without missing a beat. EYEMAGINE took great efforts to understand where our business was and where we wanted to go by visiting our workplace and learning our day-to-day business operations. Their communication was smart, lucid, and effective. They made it clear that they were investing in our success as much as we were investing in their technical know-how. They designed a beautiful site exactly to our specs. When we did go live, EYEMAGINE was there 100%, 24/7, to ensure that our transition from our old site to our new site was simple and seamless."
Chris Barker, Director of Operations, Classic Brand, Inc.
EYEMAGINE designed a distinct and visually stimulating user experience for Classic Shaving, using industry-leading eCommerce web design techniques. Classic Shaving’s previous site featured a lengthy navigation sidebar in which product tabs had to compete with each other for attention. Now, users are able to access Classic Shaving’s offerings through an intuitive, clean homepage navigation bar. The new navigation bar hosts a drop down menu displaying product sub-categories. EYEMAGINE developed a video slider on the Classic Shaving homepage that links stimulating images to featured product collections. The video slider dramatically reduced the amount of text and increased the aesthetic appeal on the company’s homepage.
EYEMAGINE’s Magento Enterprise Edition configuration expertise was applied to build crucial static pages for new visitors, including the “Introduction to Classic Shaving” and “Recommendations/Getting Started” pages, accessible at all times from the navigation bar. An “Add to Wishlist” button allows Classic Shaving customers to add products to a wishlist directly from a product or category page. Product images have been made more interactive, by including a mouse hover-over feature. EYEMAGINE completed the data migration of Classic Shaving’s thousands of SKUs into Magento Enterprise Edition and effectively bundled relevant products into distinct categories like razors, brushes, and accessories.
EYEMAGINE’s Magento Enterprise Edition implementation immediately improved and renovated Classic Shaving’s order fulfillment system, and accuracy of inventory management, in the case of products that span multiple categories. The upgrade to Magento Enterprise Edition now enables Classic Shaving to use a paperless automated system that streamlines their order fulfillment process. Administrators can easily update orders, identify expedited shipping orders, identify and track payments, print packing slips, and automate sales tax calculations. Using Magento Enterprise Edition, Classic Shaving can ensure all transactional information is safely captured and organized for timely order fulfillment.
The website redesign only marks the beginning of a relationship between Classic Shaving and EYEMAGINE. Classic Shaving has a true partner in EYEMAGINE by using EYEMAGINE’s Managed eCommerce Services. A long-term relationship will keep the company’s online store as cleanly groomed as its customers.
