How a website redesign and platform change helped this company save money.

Introduction

In the logistics and transportation management industry, an efficient and responsive website is crucial for staying competitive.

Shipwell, an Austin-based company founded by MIT graduates, recently underwent a significant website overhaul in collaboration with Veza Digital, setting a new standard for user experience in the industry.

Overcoming Old Challenges

Shipwell faced several significant hurdles with their previous website setup:

• Slow and Expensive Development Cycles: Even minor changes, like moving a button a few pixels, could cost over $600 and take more than two business days, involving costly external web developers.
• Lack of Interactivity: The old website's design did not support interactive elements like calculators or animations, limiting engagement opportunities.
• Ineffective Content Optimization: The website was difficult to navigate and not optimized for user needs, making any content optimization efforts have minimal impact.

Collaborative Redesign for Enhanced Performance

Veza Digital and Shipwell formed a strategic partnership to tackle these challenges head-on. The collaborative efforts focused on several key areas:

• User Interface Redesign: The team completely revamped the website's user interface, providing a sleek, modern look that aligns with current design trends.
• Improved Navigation: Updates to the navigation menu now make it easier for users to find exactly what they need without hassle.
• Resource Organization: Digital resources have been reorganized, simplifying access to information about Shipwell’s solutions.
• Enhanced User Connection: New functionalities were introduced to make it easier for users to connect with the Shipwell team, streamlining communication and support.

The Impact of a Modern Web Presence

The redesign not only enhanced the external user experience but also had profound internal impacts:

• Increased Marketing Autonomy: Shipwell’s marketing team can now make updates and changes autonomously without needing external developer support, leading to faster and more cost-effective campaign implementations.
• Cultural and Moral Boost: The success of the project has positively impacted team morale and reinforced a culture of innovation and efficiency within the company.

Looking Forward

With these improvements, Shipwell is better equipped to handle the dynamic demands of the logistics and supply chain market. The company looks forward to leveraging its enhanced digital platform to drive growth and continue innovating in its service offerings.

Conclusion

Shipwell’s transformation of its web presence is a testament to the power of strategic partnerships and modern technology in enhancing business operations and customer interactions.

As the digital landscape continues to evolve, robust, responsive websites are crucial for maintaining a competitive advantage and driving business success.
