New York, NY (PRWEB) July 24, 2013 -- C. Wonder, the revolutionary lifestyle brand that opened its first flagship store in New York City in October 2011, is excited to announce its website re-launch to further enhance the C. Wonder customer experience, bringing new meaning to surprise and delight.
The new http://www.cwonder.com will feature online monogramming for the first time ever, bringing unique and innovative personalization to the digital space. With a broad selection of products available for monogramming – oxford shirts, denim, throw blankets, cardigans, pillow covers, tote bags, pouches and more – C. Wonder’s online monogram boutique will include an expansive color palette for thread choices and font styles. The redesigned online shop is also excited to offer customers creative options for personalization beyond monogramming through a vast assortment of exclusive animal critters and whimsical symbols.
C. Wonder partnered with Acquity Group to update its digital customer experience and move the site to hybris’s high-caliber eCommerce platform. Acquity Group provided full front-end development and crafted C. Wonder’s new order management system specifically to support its variety of products and featured monogramming capabilities. The new cwonder.com is a streamlined and future-focused e-commerce solution built to support C. Wonder’s unique and personalized approach to online customer experience today, and in the long-term.
“The re-launch of cwonder.com is going to bring the customer experience full circle and make C. Wonder a true omni-channel retailer,” said Katherine Bahamonde, CMO and EVP of Global E- Commerce for C. Wonder. “The enhanced site offers our online customer a full C. Wonder experience with great functionality while delivering a unique experience.”
C. Wonder’s new website will be powered by the hybris OnDemand MultiChannel Commerce Suite, which offers best-in-class technology to support rapid business growth. C. Wonder selected hybris as its commerce platform for its robust search and navigation capabilities, solid ROI with long-term flexibility, and a sense of partnership and mutual investment. “C. Wonder is revolutionizing the way women shop online through creative product personalization and we are thrilled to be on board for the brand’s continued global expansion,” said Steven Kramer, Executive Vice President Sales, Americas, at hybris. “Through the hybris Commerce Suite’s scalable capabilities, C. Wonder can continuously offer the enhanced shopping experience its growing customer base has come to expect and appreciate.”
The new cwonder.com will not only create a livelier and intimate experience for customers through online monogramming and its fresh and more upbeat look and feel, it’s now also inviting customers to tap into the C. Wonder world through the introduction of the brand’s blog, Inside the C.: A Chic Guide to a Wonderful Life. Inside the C. (blog.cwonder.com) will highlight thoughtful stories geared to the interests of the ‘C. Wonder woman’ and will offer consumers a glimpse into the colorful and energetic lifestyle C. Wonder embodies and strives to achieve. The highly visual platform designed by NYC based creative agency, Frank Collective, will spotlight recipes, home decorating tips, Q + A sessions with tastemakers and influencers, and much more. With a surprise and delight element throughout, Inside the C is representative of all sides of the C. Wonder woman – chic, charismatic, colorful, charming, cool and caring.
