Case Study

Introduction

SunglassLA is an online premium eyewear boutique that serves it customers a large range of styles for very affordable prices. They place an emphasis on individuality and self-expression, creating their unique brand image and vision.

From its beginnings until now, SGLA has sought to provide quality eyewear that inspires and empowers those like you, who desire timeless fashion at an affordable price. What started out as one’s need for sunglasses, evolved into an outlet for positivity and individuality.


Challenge

SunglassLA needed a dependable platform to handle increases in traffic and give their web store a facelift without limiting the design influence of their creative team. The previous platform was plagued with performance issues, needlessly compromising sales potential and driving away customers.
The new store would need to be lean and agile but capable of withstanding a steady flow of visitors and orders. There would also need to be backend support through a third party connector to help consolidate the activities from the branded store and marketplaces.


How We Did It?

BigCommerce
BigCommerce offers an all-inclusive solution for eCommerce. SunglassLA needed something scalable, consistent and responsive to make sure there would be no interruptions for their customers. The fulfillment options and API potentials added another layer of benefits that gave SGLA confidence in the platform.

SmartOSC also worked closely with the SGLA creative team to come up with a design that would stand out and highlight the products and collections without reducing browsability. BigCommerce did not feature the same design limitations as the former platform, therefore permitting greater creative freedom.

ChannelAdvisor Integration
ChannelAdvisor connects its clients with new and existing sources of demand for their products. This makes it a great addition when considering multiple sales channels including marketplaces and physical retail space. SunglassLA wanted to combine their efforts from the web store and marketplaces while maintaining stable management of both.

As this is still the early stages of SGLA’s ambitious strategy, the solutions Channel Advisor offers relating to sales, marketing and fulfillment will ensure that they have room to continue growing indefinitely.

Amazon Marketplace Managed Services
Aligning with the desire to sell through multiple channels, SGLA would need guidance on how to maximize their selling potential on the Amazon marketplace. SmartOSC offers strategic consultation and ongoing guidance on how to navigate this highly competitive channel.
Success in eCommerce requires an understanding of all potential sources of revenue, and the strategies for executing each differs greatly. Making an active effort to seize a position on Amazon gives excellent growth opportunities in the future.

Going Forward
With this multi-channel supported approach, SunglassLA will be able to capitalize on every online selling opportunity available to them. SGLA can now focus on growing their brand while ChannelAdvisor ensures the connectivity of all marketing efforts and sales channels. The ongoing guidance from SmartOSC will also guarantee they are not giving up any GMV on Amazon and other marketplaces.
