Background

Yard Dawgs is a Canadian lawn care company that strives to provide quality lawn care services. It was founded in 2004 by Liam Sunstrum and James Szojka to help consumers with their yard care needs following the simple motto: "Integrity in everything we do."

However, in spite of providing top notch yard services and receiving a lot of traffic on their website, Yard Dawgs was struggling with a very low conversion rate. They knew that their website was hard to navigate and their users simply weren’t getting what they came for.

The process

Before

After

Extensive research and in- depth interactions with Yard Dawgs team was done by the Prodigitas team, in order to gather enough information to understand what users needed from the website. This would in turn help them to convert traffic into actual sales. The user research conducted gave the Prodigitas team information about user personas and provided valuable insights into how users are likely to interact with the site.

Competitive research was also conducted to map the user journeys on competitor websites. The best practices of competitors were studied and were later incorporated into the new Yard Dawgs website.

Liam was very clear that he wanted to productize his services, making it easier for website visitors to choose what they need and convert them to customers. He worked extensively on creating packages, These were brought to life by us using best practices from other online selling platforms.

The last thing was to redo the look and feel of the website to ensure that it was attractive, easy to navigate, and as user friendly as possible. Founder, Liam Sunstrum was extremely responsive with a lot of valuable feedback which helped to make the process smooth. Prodigitas was able to achieve the desired look and feel of the Yard Dawgs website fairly quickly.
