To survive in competitive markets, it is necessary to be good at understanding where the market is going. Offline commerce is increasingly heading towards eCommerce. Most shopping today is done online. Expanding the business to meet the needs of new shoppers and looking beyond the product range to attract new customers: these are the trends that prompted Silent Pool Distillers – a company on BigCommerce – to look for Zakeke, an easy-to-use product customizer for online and offline stores.
Silent Pool Distillers is a British Company born in 2014 in the heart of the Surrey Hills. Drawn by a common passion for craft distilling, a group of friends led by Ian McCulloch came together to create a new kind of distillery, producing handcrafted, artisan spirits with uncompromising quality.
After analyzing various eCommerce platforms, they choose BigCommerce. Thus, during Covid-19 eCommerce became an integral part of their business.
THE CHALLENGE
The eCommerce allows Silent Pool Distillers to reach more customers. So when it becomes an integral part of their business, they realize they can expand their user base even further. Why not allow customers to customize the labels of some products? An excellent idea for gifts or gadgets during celebrations.
They didn’t have a problem to solve but a new market to reach. So they think of Product Customization to offer their customers a unique, engaging and personalized experience. They needed an easy-to-use tool that integrated seamlessly with the services they already used.
THE SOLUTION
Silent Pool Distillers wanted to build something that played nice with BigCommerce. After researching the available apps, they choose Zakeke. The Product Customizer integrates seamlessly and quickly with BigCommerce and responds to all the needs they have.
