Quick question: When's the last time you actually shopped on your own mobile site?
Not just checked it. Actually went through the entire buying process on your phone.
If you're like most brand owners, it's been a while. And that's costing you a fortune.
The Mobile Reality
70% of your traffic is mobile, but only 45% of purchases happen on mobile.
That gap represents massive lost revenue. Every day.

The Thumb-First Design Philosophy
Mobile isn't just a smaller version of desktop. It's a completely different behavior:
📱 Thumb Navigation Everything important must be reachable with one thumb. Buttons need to be at least 44px (fingertip size). Navigation should be at the bottom, not top.
📱 Scanning, Not Reading Break up text with line breaks and bullet points. Use larger fonts (16px minimum). Lead with benefits, bury features.
📱 Speed Expectations 3 seconds or they're gone. Optimize images for mobile Remove unnecessary plugins and widgets.
The Mobile Conversion Killers
🚫 Tiny Buy Buttons If your CTA requires precision aiming, it's too small Make buttons full-width on mobile.
🚫 Difficult Form Filling Long checkout forms kill mobile conversions. Use auto-fill, payment buttons (Apple Pay, Google Pay). Ask for minimum information required.
🚫 Pop-Ups That Take Over Full-screen pop-ups are conversion killers on mobile. Use slide-ins or banners instead.
