Our Work
B2B / B2C
It's about communicating value and appeal. More than anything, consumer products need to be usable to be successful.
Here are some examples from our portfolio of B2B / B2C solutions:
Rockport Web App : Information Architecture, and Design
After years of carrying around bulky catalogues and boxes of shoe samples, the Rockport sales team needed a sleek, efficient tool that would allow reps to build custom collections of shoes for client visits and presentations. Based on our reputation for building gorgeous digital user experiences, they chose to partner with iFactory.
One of the first of its kind in the industry, iFactory designed and built a revolutionary new sales application tool for Rockport, a Reebok company, used to accelerate and augment global sales initiatives. A sleek, fashion-forward design serves as the storefront for a robust, agile back-end Drupal structure to store, filter, and present the entire shoe collection for the upcoming sales seasons. This dynamic application stores and presents all relevant marketing material, sales presentations, and promotional collateral for use by the global sales team.
RSA - Conference : Website
The new site more effectively combines the event-specific information and the year-round information to give users a richer experience and a better understanding of what the organization has to offer outside of the annual conferences. RSA Conference events, held all over the world, are the leading conferences in the information security industry. RSA Conference is focused on educating the information security professional community.
