The Strategy
Detailed Pre-Migration Analysis: We started by conducting an in-depth analysis of Kiyonna’s existing Miva setup. This allowed us to identify and categorize essential data, understand the existing site’s architecture, and pinpoint any outdated integrations or plugins that were no longer needed.
Streamlined Data Migration: Using a structured approach, we meticulously cleaned up the data before migration. This step was crucial to ensure that only relevant, clean, and organized data was transferred to the new Shopify site, avoiding clutter and potential issues post-migration.
Custom Shopify Setup: We tailored the Shopify platform to fit Kiyonna’s specific needs, from product categories to user experience enhancements. This included setting up Shopify’s backend to accommodate Kiyonna’s operational workflow, ensuring scalability and ease of use.
Vibrant Website Redesign: Our design team worked closely with Kiyonna to create a fresh, modern look for the website. This involved selecting a new color scheme, typography, and layout that aligned with Kiyonna’s branding while making the site more engaging and easy to navigate for customers.
Third-Party Integration and Optimization: To enhance the site’s functionality, we integrated it with Searchspring and other essential third-party services. This not only improved the shopping experience for users but also provided Kiyonna with powerful tools for inventory management, analytics, and customer engagement.
Quality Assurance and Testing: Throughout the process, our team conducted rigorous testing to ensure every aspect of the site worked flawlessly. This included checking the design on various devices, ensuring the data migration was accurate, and verifying that all third-party integrations functioned correctly.
Launch and Post-Launch Support: Upon completing the migration and redesign, we planned a carefully timed launch. This was followed by continuous monitoring and support to address any immediate issues and ensure a smooth transition for Kiyonna and its customers.
