Where it started

XS Floors was a new wholesale flooring retailer with a cash and carry model. Their branding was inconsistent, and their initial message didn't resonate with their target audience. Additionally, their outdated website design and functionality made it difficult to view products and get customers excited about their own home projects.

The Process

Huco Designs teamed up with XS Floors' to revamp their brand and website. We collaborated closely with XS Floors to understand their values and target market. Through extensive research and competitor analysis, we identified XS Floors' unique selling points and developed a comprehensive brand strategy. Clear and compelling messaging was created to communicate XS Floors' commitment to high-quality, affordable flooring solutions.

Where it ended

With the overhauled website and cohesive brand strategy, XS Floors was able to gain a foothold in the saturated market. The new design featured intuitive navigation and a visually appealing interface. It was made responsive to ensure seamless browsing across all devices. Product pages were enriched with high-quality images, detailed descriptions, and complementary visuals to help customers picture their next purchase.

Prioritizing user experience and responsive design leads to higher website traffic and conversion rates.

Effective Communication

Clear and consistent brand messaging across all channels helps convey the company's values and commitment to customers.

Strategic Branding

A comprehensive brand strategy, including market research and competitor analysis, is essential to define unique selling points and create a strong brand identity.

What services do you offer as a freelance designer?

We offer a variety of services from: branding and strategy to print design and social media assets, all the way to hassle-free websites that you can customize without us. Our mission? To make your digital presence exciting to show off.

What are "no-code" websites and why should I consider them?

No-code websites are drag-and-drop builders that make website building a bit more accessible to non-technical folks. We use no-code builders to empower you with the skills to tweak your site without needing any web designers (including us!) down the road.

How can you improve a business' existing web presence?

First we do a deep-dive into your website- finding all the areas that need a little extra love. Next, we clean up your content and re-format it so visitors can find what you want them to see with ease. Then, it's all about applying designs to your content and making sure they look as good on desktop as they do on your phone. Finally, we update your site so you show up on Google (and/or any search engine of choice).

We charge on a per-project basis. We understand that every project is unique, so our pricing is tailored to your needs. We usually start with a quick phone chat to understand what it is you're looking for, and then we send over a full proposal specific to your needs.
