Found you as I’ve been looking at ways to optimize our checkout flow and just have been sucked into the great content on your site. I am by profession a UX/Strategy Director for a consulting company, but just launched an e-commerce site last September that combines my web knowledge with my husband’s profession (law enforcement). We are both still working our current jobs, which makes it harder. We had the idea 2.5 years ago because my husband noticed a hole in everyday carry (EDC) gear availability; that there weren’t any places dedicated to this niche. Now we are in that great “start up” stage where we have little ranking with Google, failed at PCP (which you mention in an earlier article and are spot on!) and after 4 months live clearly see that some of our products were poor choices and we need to be better at differentiating ourselves from Amazon and other large retailers. We are shifting our focus to small-run craftsmen/artisan products, in addition to more of the standard product lines, but all of your articles are really pointing me in the right direction here. I also loved the article on the BC check-out flow. It took SO LONG doing product photography, descriptions and entering products that we launched with BC as-is–just now starting to look at where we can make changes and edits. ANYWAY–love what you’re doing. Thanks for all the great advice. Doing this is much, much harder than telling a large company what to do. I’ve realized how much I really don’t know.
