Spanx Wins Best in Class Website Redesign of the Year Award
ATLANTA (PRWEB) March 08, 2018 -- Visiture is proud to announce that Spanx has been honored with the eTail Best-in-Class Award for Website Redesign of the Year. The award was presented at the Best-in-Class Awards Ceremony, Wednesday, February 28, 2018, at the eTail West 2018 conference in Palm Springs.
For the last six years, eTail has been honoring the best of the best of retailers with industry awards in innovation and excellence in eCommerce. eTail West is the longest-running conference dedicated to the eCommerce and omnichannel retail community. The judges are made up of a panel of retail industry peers who voted on their top picks in each category.
The Website Redesign of the Year Award recognizes the eCommerce site that has improved dramatically with a recent redesign that has translated into increased sales. Spanx unveiled its new website back in November of 2017. Designed and engineered by Visiture (formerly ExpandLab), the new website https://www.spanx.com was redesigned with profitability, effectiveness, and creativity top of mind.
The new site build-out using Magento 2 gave the brand’s developers and digital designers more control and functionality. Visiture also re-platformed a new ERP allowing the site to be built from the ground up with algorithms and logic-tailored specifically to Spanx’s direct-to-consumer needs for the foreseeable future.
“We’re very proud of both Spanx and our team,” said Brian Cohen, CEO of Visiture. “We strive to help our clients create differentiated and unique experiences for their customers, and to be recognized for our work is an absolute honor.”
Beyond metrics and movement of product, another defining feature of the new website is the brand’s ability to showcase Sara Blakely’s life: events that support female entrepreneurs, volunteer comings and goings, and other stories that empower women and truly showcase the Spanx brand.
