Proposal · Website Redesign

A checkout that stops losing mobile buyers.

Prepared for Lumen Botanics, a botanical skincare brand whose mobile visitors browse, add to cart — and leave. This proposal fixes that first, then turns the site into the brand's best salesperson.

1 · The problem, in your words

Mirrored from our discovery call — if this is wrong, the rest of this proposal is wrong too.

“Our mobile site looks beautiful, but it doesn't sell. About two in three mobile visitors reach checkout and disappear, and every launch week turns into a week of fixing pages instead of selling. We need a site our small team can actually update — without calling a developer for every new product.”

The cost of doing nothing: at current traffic, that checkout leak is worth roughly $18,000 a month in abandoned orders. Every month without a fix pays for this project twice over — and costs the launch momentum you can't buy back.

2 · What you get

Numbered, countable, verifiable — a stranger could check whether each one was done.

1
8-page marketing site, redesigned mobile-firstHome, Shop, 3 product templates, Journal, About, Contact — plus a checkout flow rebuilt around one thumb, one price, one button.
2
Product storytelling systemOne reusable template for every future product: hero, ritual, ingredients, reviews, and FAQ — so launches stop needing redesigns.
3
Checkout & speed fix, measuredCheckout passes on iOS Safari and Chrome desktop; pages load in under 2.5 seconds on a mid-range phone, verified before launch.
4
Launch kit your team can runStyle guide, image specs, and a 30-minute recorded walkthrough — so new products go live without a developer.

Explicitly not included

  • Product photography or video
  • Copywriting beyond one editing pass
  • Paid ads or email campaigns
  • Ongoing maintenance after launch (see Tier 3)

Proof, matched to this project
