A good example of optimized e-commerce is the French company Jules & Jenn, whose motto is “from our workshops to your closets, we sell without intermediaries at the right price”. With this main objective and its transparency when selling only their handmade products online, we created 3 types of visual content. First the product images in the studio (bags, belts, purses, shoes for men and women …).Second the exterior images with the product in use. This always makes the difference and is particularly useful in technological, mechanical or assembly products.

Third and final, the images made inside their factories to illustrate the strategy of transparency of the company. For this we visited France, Portugal and Spain. In the website there is a section where we have showcased the history of its three factories located in Elche, Alicante and Oporto. Navigating the page is very easy thanks to its usability. Jules & Jenn is a clear example of a company that has been able to adapt thier strategies aimed at providing customer value and where there is an interaction between user and brand.
