How Everything5pounds Transformed their Customer Experience and Increased Search Conversions

About Everything5pounds

Everything5pounds.com (E5P) started in 2010 with a mission to constantly push boundaries with trend-led clothing for £5. They are a destination for staged budget clothing, daily new arrivals, and fresh styles, with over 1 million registered users. E5P’s business model relies on providing customers with affordable, trending options on their online store.E5P identified the need to build a best-in-class customer experience that keeps pace with the volume of their new arrivals and supports a smooth customer journey to checkout. E5P adds a large quantity of products daily to their online catalog, without detailed product descriptions.Without those descriptions, products do not have the information needed to show up in search queries. In addition, their onsite search was built only using basic keyword comparisons. Due to this, customers miss out on seeing all available products or see incorrect products. Before Velou, E5P was using SAP CommerceCloud, but needed a solution developed specifically for fashion. E5P chose Velou as a powerful solution in order to handle a large product catalog and the fast rate of arrivals to help their customers find exactly what they have in mind.

What Velou brought to Everything5pounds

A Focus on Fashion and the Customer Experience

Velou’s AI models and machine learning technology are built ground up for fashion and enables E5P to achieve more customer engagement and drive overall sales.

Product Data Enrichment enhances the number of attributes for each product, through enriching data with an expanded number of fashion-related search terms. First, Velou’s Image Analysis process uses computer vision technology to identify product attributes from product images. Then, the Text Analysis process identifies attributes from the product descriptions. As a result, the overall number of product attributes in the E5P catalog increased over 85%. This improvement in product attributes enables E5P customers to use a broader range of search terms. By showing customers all products that match their search, E5P was able to increase their sales.
