Sigma Imaging : Camera and Lens distribution

About This Project

The Client

Sigma is a well-known camera and lens brand in the consumer and professional markets and over fifty years has built a reputation for quality and reliability.

 


The Challenge

Selling online has many benefits for products that are small and easy to ship. Sigma wanted to maximise on the opportunity ecommerce presents to provide a wide range of products direct to their customers.

 


The Paramount Solution

We delivered a contemporary and stylish website that complied with their visual branding guidelines and showed the products off to best effect. The system was an easy to navigate content-managed solution that would dynamically update as they added new products to their range. It included multiple galleries, detailed product information and full ecommerce capability.

In order to ensure the maximum return on their investment we also advised on how to drive traffic to the site. We delivered a highly successful email campaign targeted to their database of 16,000 of customers who had previously bought, which invited them to visit the new site and sign up to a mailing list. We also added a blogging platform enabling them to increase customer engagement by blogging about offers, events, exhibitions and competitions.

 


Results

The email campaign achieved over 3,000 signups – an impressive response rate of 18.7%. The company is very pleased with the online sales performance from the site.
