Overview

Savage Bean Coffee Co. is a Michigan-based small-batch sustainable coffee roaster. They had a strong local following, but struggled to sell their beans online due to the lack of clear messaging for an intuitive purchase flow. Their main goal was to make coffee bean sales (and subscriptions) online. We restructured the site’s architecture with coffee purchases and subscriptions to be front and centre, added customer testimonials, created newsletter sign-ups and integrated brand content explaining the value of small-batch, ethically sourced beans. We created clear, multi entry points for bean purchases and subscriptions. We also ensured the brand came across in a consistent way in the digital space.

Within the first quarter after launch, the new site saw online revenue jump by 1800%. The approach we took blended customer and competitor research with a mobile-first UX design and conversion focused Squarespace build. Every element was designed to answer one question: “How do we turn casual visitors into buyers or loyal subscribers?”.

“Mel has done a fantastic job building my website! Her precision and sharp eye have truly been a game changer for my online presence. What I appreciated most about working with Mel is her genuine passion for listening to me as a business owner—she took the time to understand my vision and then used her expertise to bring it to life beautifully.

As a U.S.-based business owner, I highly recommend putting Mel at the top of your list for a website uplift or a brand-new build. Either way, it’s a win with Mel. Her service is excellent, and deadlines are never a problem.”
