About the client
The company helped ecommerce brands recover revenue lost to cart abandonment — tracking, analysing and responding to shopper behaviour at checkout. The product had strong potential; internal disconnection was stalling growth.
The challenge
- Slow feature delivery from unclear priorities between product and development
- Customer feedback from major retail partners wasn’t acted on fast enough
- Marketing learned about releases too late for coordinated campaigns
- Support wasn’t aligned on what was coming or how to explain it
The solution
Customer feedback → feature loop
Structured flows from support to product: feedback funnelled, categorised, prioritised, and translated into requirements with real business cases.
Sprint + marketing coordination
Product sprints coordinated with marketing and customer teams — shared timelines and pre-release briefs so campaigns launched with features.
Support enablement
Support looped in early, trained on value and use cases, with feature cheat sheets and internal FAQs.
The results
- 55%+ more abandoned carts recovered — product improvements directly addressed key friction points reported by major users
- 37% faster go-to-market execution — new features released faster, with marketing campaigns live from day one
- 23% increase in user happiness and engagement — better onboarding and support helped customers actually use what was built
- The company grew in both ARR and user base
The takeaway
Operations is the engine behind product-led growth. It’s not enough to build a good product — you need systems connecting customer voice, product development and marketing execution.
