Project Details
- Industry: Events / Entertainment
- Core Technologies: WordPress, Apache, PHP, MySQL
- Theme: Divi
- Key Plugins: Divi Supreme Pro, Speed Optimizer, LifterLMS, UpdraftPlus, WPForms
Challenges & Solutions
The Challenge: The existing digital presence lacked the high-energy visual appeal required to represent an entertainment brand. Additionally, the site struggled to manage a complex booking process for a massive catalog of over 100 distinct character options, leading to user friction and lost leads.
The Solution: We leveraged the Divi framework to create a vibrant, comic-book-inspired aesthetic that matches the brand’s “impact.” To streamline operations, we implemented WPForms for organized booking inquiries and redesigned the site architecture, allowing users to move from character discovery to conversion in just a few clicks.
