The roast
Selling pedestals like it's 2012—great product, website stuck in the past.

Solid B2B/B2C hybrid with killer social proof (5.0 ratings everywhere) and real craft credibility, but the hero is a vague museum piece and the value prop takes 3 scrolls to land. You're leaving 25%+ on the table because visitors don't know if you're $50 Ikea or $5K custom until they hunt.

6 things quietly costing you money. We counted.

  • Hero headline is a museum label, not a value prop
    high
    'PEDESTALS & DISPLAYS' tells me what you sell, not why I care. Compare to 'Custom Display Pedestals That Make Your Art Worth Twice As Much' or 'Museum-Quality Pedestals, Shipped in 14 Days'. You have 2 seconds—use them.
  • No price anchoring or range visible above fold
    high
    I see 'From $156' buried in product cards 2 scrolls down. A $200 pedestal buyer and a $2K custom buyer have different urgency. Show the range ('Starting at $138 | Custom quotes in 24hrs') so visitors self-qualify faster.
  • CTA hierarchy is flat and generic
    medium
    27 buttons detected but the primary CTA is 'SHOP ALL PEDESTALS'—weak verb, no urgency, no differentiation. 'Request a Quote' is hidden in nav. For custom work, that should be a hero-level CTA with a 10-second form (not buried).
  • Speed-to-value is slow
    medium
    It takes 3 sections to learn you do custom work, ship in 2 weeks, and work with 'world-class brands'. That should be in the subhead. Right now the hero says 'we exist' instead of 'we solve your problem fast'.
  • No OG image
    low
    When someone shares your site on LinkedIn or Slack, it's a blank card. For a visual product (pedestals!), that's a missed brand moment. Add a hero shot of your best custom install.
  • 508KB HTML with 75 scripts
    low
    That's heavy for an ecommerce site. Likely Shopify + a dozen apps. Not breaking the experience but slowing mobile load. Audit what's actually converting vs. what's legacy bloat.

Your site is bleeding conversions right now.

aiOS will implement 5 fixes on your site for you. 24 points of upside, hands-off. Your entire AI team, one text away.

content agent · your fix

An aiOS content agent would rewrite your hero in 90 seconds—pulling the '2 weeks', 'Fort Collins craft', and '5.0 star' proof from your existing copy, then A/B testing 3 headline variants against your current traffic. You'd approve the winner from iMessage, and it'd go live before your next coffee refill. Same agent adds the trust bar, surfaces pricing, and writes the custom quote CTA copy—all tied to your actual conversion data, not guesswork.
