Pre launch store review

Store URL:https://kandibykelton.com

Store Password: plur

I’m about to launch my Shopify store KandibyKelton, a PLUR focused rave supply brand based in Colorado

My goal is to make sure I’m not missing anything before launch.

I’m looking for feedback on:

• First impression

• Anything missing or confusing

• Trust and professionalism

• Product page clarity

• Mobile experience

• Anything that would stop you from buying

If you had 10 seconds on my site, what would make you leave?

@KandibyKelton ,

Hey,
I checked out your store and honestly, the vibe is really nice the PLUR/rave niche comes through well and it feels fun and on-brand.

If I am being real from a quick 10second view the only thing that might make me leave is not immediately understanding what exactly you are selling. A clear line at the top like Custom kandi & rave accessories would help a lot.

Also Id try to bring products into view a bit faster. If the banner is too big or doesn’t show product clearly people might scroll or bounce before engaging.

From a trust side since its a new store adding a few things would really help

  • Shipping/returns info
  • A short About or brand story
  • Even a couple of reviews or first drop messaging

Product pages look good overall but adding a few quick bullet points material, handmade, durability, etc. can make it easier to understand at a glance.

Mobile is important for your audience so just double check everything feels smooth and nothing is too oversized or hard to tap.

Overall, you’re in a solid place before launch just focus on clarity showing products and building a bit more trust and you should be good to go.

Wow, custom theme, lean and mean :slight_smile: :+1:
Fast too!

But yes, you really need responsive image HTML for your hero.
It’s 4284 × 5712 px and at 3mb it’s noticeably “heavy”.

Need same domain e-mail, terms of service and other policies available from your pages (header/footer links?)

Consider social media links in footer. Wait, you do not have footer :slight_smile: ? Unusual, but may work fine too.

But actual location and a phone number in the footer add greatly to the trust value.
If you go to markets – mention it somewhere “near” too.

“Notify me” at the bottom of the homepage does not seem to do anything?

Share picks of your process – will support the “made in Colorado” statement nicely.

Product page – if image does not zoom, do not show the zoom pointer?

Good job otherwise.

Hi @KandibyKelton

You already have the slider cart and the progress bar which is further ahead than most stores. The missing piece is what happens inside that cart once someone adds a bead or two. Kandi making is inherently a bulk buying activity and someone adding a Bass Head Bead should immediately be seeing other beads that would complete a bracelet theme right there in the cart. Surfacing curated combinations like festival themed bead sets or character themed groups inside the cart is how you turn a $1.50 order into a $15 order without any extra ads.

Bundles are also a massive opportunity here that you’re not using yet. A starter kandi kit with a selection of beads, elastic string and glue is an obvious bundle that new buyers would grab immediately because it removes the guesswork of figuring out what they need. Show that bundle inside the cart when someone adds their first bead and you’ll see average order value jump pretty quickly.

Something like iCart handles the in-cart cross-sells and bundle displays alongside the progress bar you already have, all without needing additional apps stacked on top.

@KandibyKelton . First impression was not good… becasue you have passwords protected, it’s very hard to judge.

But you can consider this.

The following are some points that need to be taken care of:

1 - Logo - If you are looking to launch “KandibyKelton” as a brand new store, then it should have a unique logo.

2 - Social Proof - Since you have a brand new store, obviously, you don’t have reviews yet, and it is totally fine. But you can add something, a short founder note, such as “Quality-Obsessed Artisan.” The genuine human touch builds trust faster than anything else.

3 - Product Page - The product has no specifications or shipping details on the page. Missing “Write a Review” section, Trust Factor, Social Sharing, Wishlist options on the page.

4 - Footer - Footer is not optimized as it is missing important links and information.

5 - Shipping and Other Policy Pages - As I checked, there are no policy pages configured on the website that can cause multiple issues once you start marketing for the website

6 - Mobile - Rendering on mobile pages is fine and feels like nothing is hard to click.

Also attached is the quick screenshot for your store; maybe it’s helpful for you.

Hey @KandibyKelton you have to add some urgency in the product page for more conversion
