Junkwize needed to simplify their complex booking process and reduce bounce rates while boosting leads through improved digital strategy.
Junkwize, an eco-friendly rubbish removal service, faced issues with their complex booking process, which led to high bounce rates and user drop-off. They sought to simplify the user journey to create a more intuitive and navigable website. Additionally, Junkwize aimed to boost their digital marketing efforts to drive more leads through paid search. Our assignment, to streamline the booking process and enhance the overall user experience to reduce drop-offs and support their lead generation goals.
A UX audit and examination of the customer journey flow led to insights that informed new UX design decisions across all user journeys throughout the website.
This included conducting a heuristic website evaluation, focusing on the customer booking process. We examined each part of the experience and questioned its purpose in aiding a seamless user journey. This involved looking at industry standards such as clarity of messages and Call To Actions (CTAs), feature placement, user control and freedom and error prevention.
Throughout the evaluation, we aimed to highlight any points at which a user may experience friction and turn these into opportunities to improve the journey as part of our ideation and design process.
Our design changes included:
Once we had all the new UX recommendations in place, we accelerated our PPC activity, focusing on Junkwize’s priority service areas. Our Paid Media team investigated the best way to increase brand awareness in an extremely competitive industry, increase the number of business leads coming through the site and understand the change in consumer journey.
In order to increase our reach and serve ads across Google’s entire network, we launched a Performance Max campaign with core B2B messaging and targeting strategy in place. We immediately saw an uplift in traffic coming through to the site post-launch and then continued to build an ever-growing exclusions list to focus on as high-quality leads as possible.
Although our reach had significantly increased, we were still observing one very important trend—users were becoming less inclined to make a purchase straight away after landing on the site. Instead, they wanted to read about the company some more, potentially compare prices with competitors, and most importantly, get in touch with the team to discuss their options before committing.
To combat the above, we expanded our conversion actions. We again liaised with the UX team to introduce a new ‘WhatsApp’ feature (so that users can message the Junkwize team directly) and also track telephone calls.
