Lucy in the Sky brand

Potential for growth

Brand mood landed. Purchase intent didn't, bounce rate was extreme across all platforms.

Web

The TikTok-style format held attention, and broke the funnel. Users were watching, not buying. Two benchmarks missed simultaneously: unclear purpose, invisible product range.

App

Primary product categories went undiscovered. PDP conversion: baseline roughly 2%, below potential across all entry points.

Behavioral insight

The most-clicked element on the home screen was the logo. It still captured less than 20% of users.

Web: Biggest research findings

One video at a time hid the catalogue and removed user control.

Auto-rotating content prevented evaluation.

The screen communicated campaign, not product.

Solution

Hero area communicates intent and surfaces at least 40% of the catalogue.

Accessible, predictable navigation builds direct paths to products.

Behavioral insight

Potential buyers reach their target product category in one click.

Solution

Catalogue showcases items above the fold. Campaign content stays in its place.

Lucy app redesign — catalogue view

Solution

Desktop and tablet mirror the mobile experience.

Lucy app — before navigation

Behavioral insight

Tabs appeared as category cards. The behaviour didn't match the signifier: every tap produced an unexpected result.

App: Biggest research findings

Unpredictable navigation promoted nearly empty sections.

Users were not prompted to purchase. Critical funnel entry points failed.

Home screen becomes the starting point of the experience.
