The Challenge

In the realm of e-commerce, nutraceutical brands encounter a distinctive set of challenges that stem from the unique nature of their products. One of the primary hurdles is establishing trust among consumers, as the online space is saturated with numerous options, and customers often seek reassurance regarding the efficacy and safety of nutraceutical offerings. Regulatory compliance and varying standards across different regions present another obstacle, requiring meticulous attention to labeling, claims, and adherence to health regulations. Additionally, the virtual marketplace poses difficulties in conveying the sensory aspects of nutraceuticals, such as taste and texture, which are crucial factors in consumer decision-making.

The Solution

To build trust with consumers overwhelmed by choices, we propose using trust badges on all products. These badges will clearly show what the product is meant for and any certifications it holds, giving customers confidence in the effectiveness and safety of the nutraceuticals. In addition to this, we created a dynamic Key Nutrients section for each product. This custom solution breaks down the ingredients used in each product and explain how they're commonly used in medicine.


To further increase consumer confidence and their knowledge of the product line, we also introduced a Product Finder Quiz. This tool allows users to discover products tailored to their specific needs, making the shopping experience more personalized. On the results page and all collections pages, we also introduced dynamic filtering, allowing customers to shop based on factors like life stage, health concerns, certifications, and key nutrients. Overall, we accomplished this goal and secured higher conversion rates, average order value, all while providing a transparent, personalized, and a trustworthy environment for consumers.

A truly diverse range of action
