Overview

About the brand & project

KeySmart (getkeysmart.com) builds premium key organizers and smart trackers — KeySmart Classic/iPro/Air, SmartCard (Find My / Android Find Hub), MagConnect, and everyday-carry tools. As a product-led D2C brand, site speed and checkout completion directly affect revenue. They needed an embedded Shopify Plus team for continuous performance and CRO — not one-off fixes.

The Challenge

What needed to change

Slow TTFB and Core Web Vitals were taxing paid traffic efficiency. Mobile checkout drop-off leaked revenue, and manual marketing/fulfillment workflows slowed the ops team. KeySmart needed a partner who could run experiments monthly while hardening the Plus stack.

  • Slow TTFB impacting Core Web Vitals and ad efficiency
  • Checkout drop-off on mobile for accessory and tracker kits
  • Manual workflows slowing marketing and fulfillment ops
  • Need for ongoing CRO experimentation with clean analytics
  • Theme and app debt accumulating across campaigns

  2. Checkout CRO Mobile checkout experiments focused on completion and AOV.
  3. Automation layer Shopify Flow and integrations to reduce manual ops work.
  4. Experiment cadence Hypothesis → ship → measure loop for PDP and funnel pages.
  5. Partnership rhythm Sprint planning, reporting, and shared ownership of speed + conversion.
