Client Overview

Venus et Fleur is the global leader in luxury eternity floral arrangements, renowned for bespoke, premium gifting. In early 2025, Venus et Fleur partnered with Velocent to transform their digital commerce performance—combining our proprietary analytics SaaS platform with an end-to-end experimentation programme.

The Challenge

Fragmented Data & Incomplete Insights

Venus et Fleur's growth was limited by insufficient attribution and unreliable reporting from legacy ecommerce analytics. There was no way to accurately quantify the impact of marketing or on-site initiatives by channel, device, or campaign.

Stalled Conversion Growth

Standard promotional tactics and incremental design tweaks were no longer moving the needle on conversion or AOV, with engagement stagnating at critical buying periods.

Need for Actionable, Attribution-Driven Experimentation

The business required a future-proof approach—combining robust data, agile experimentation, and commercial focus—to unlock new sources of revenue and sustain their luxury brand position.

The Velocent Solution

1. Velocent Analytics Platform: Powering Reliable, Actionable Data

Venus et Fleur's digital performance was held back by fragmented analytics, incomplete attribution, and an inability to quantify the commercial impact of change.

With Velocent, Venus et Fleur gained:

Comprehensive Attribution

Granular, event-level tracking of every visitor journey across channels and devices.

7+ Years Data Retention

Enabling long-term trend and cohort analysis, far surpassing legacy systems.

Unified Reporting

Real-time dashboards and SQL-based querying for in-depth, actionable insight—used by both internal teams and partners.

Experiment-Ready Infrastructure

The platform's seamless integration with the ecommerce stack meant Venus et Fleur could reliably measure every change, test, and marketing investment.

2. Experimentation, Enabled by Velocent

With analytics transformed, Venus et Fleur leveraged Velocent's experimentation management features and expertise:

A/B and Multivariate Testing

Integrated test set-up, targeting, and statistical analysis all within Velocent.

ARPU-Led Optimisation

Average Revenue Per User was established as the core metric—automatically tracked and reported at test, segment, and channel level.

Insight-to-Action

Hypotheses were prioritised based on real customer behaviour, surfaced through Velocent's attribution and journey insights.

Integrated with Marketing

Insights and wins were shared with marketing partners to inform spend, campaign timing, and messaging.

Key Experiments

1. Core Product Upsell & Lateral Navigation

Key Learning: Exposing the relative product size and cost value equation encourages both upsell and conversion.

2. Delivery Messaging (Guaranteed Event & Next Day Delivery)

Objective: Remove barriers to purchase by providing customers with certainty around product arrival for key occasions (Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, last-minute gifting).

Key Learning: Delivery confidence is a decisive lever—customers respond strongly to clear, timely fulfilment messaging, especially for high-value, time-sensitive purchases.

3. "Buy Now" Button on PDP

Objective: Test whether a prominent "Buy Now with Shop Pay" call-to-action on product pages would increase conversion rates by expediting the checkout process.

Conversion rates declined
Buy Now orders were concentrated in low-value, low-margin products
Operational costs increased due to a spike in customer calls

Key Learning: Faster checkout is not always better; circumventing essential content can damage both conversion and customer experience, especially for premium products. This test highlighted the importance of validating convenience-driven changes with data, not assumption.
