Hubcap Heaven®, LLC has three locations in Maryland and Virginia, selling wheels and wheel cover products. While their stores were earning revenue, their online presence was stagnating due to a web site which was visually jarring and not entirely functional. The existing web site was unable to process online orders; clients would walk through the process of selecting items and adding them to their cart, only to be give the message at checkout “please call to place your order”. Hubcap Heaven wanted to increase their overall revenue by capturing online sales.
Atlas Geeks assisted Hubcap Heaven in re-branding by hosting a design contest. The winning logo along with a sleek black-and-white color scheme provided a more visually-appealing web site.
After performing a comparison of available open-source shopping cart systems, Opencart was chosen as the best fit for Hubcap Heaven’s needs. Hubcap Heaven provided images, and spreadsheet dumps of thousands of items. Atlas Geeks massaged the data and assisted in cleaning images, created categories for the products and launched the new site using PayPal to process orders.
Hubcap Heaven received their first online sale the day after the web site went live, and orders have been steadily climbing since the site launch.
