The history

Lazy Oaf was founded by Gemma Shiel from a North London Garage in 2001. It is a design-led lifestyle brand with a history of doing things their own way. What started with hand-printed T-shirts sold from a stall in East London has now become an established independent brand, celebrating creativity, collaboration and community

The problem

• Business profitability: The Lazy Oaf team are trying to make the business more efficient and profitability is a key area they are trying to improve
• Trust: They wanted both UK and international customers to feel more secure when buying products from their website

The solution

Lazy Oaf decided they wanted to start upselling delivery protection to their customers at checkout

How it works

• For a small additional fee consumers can opt in to ProtectMyOrder. The protection promises a premium level of customer service with faster resolutions if a customer has a delivery issue
• They still resolve all delivery claims themselves
• They keep 91% of the delivery protection revenue

Simple setup process:

• They installed the Shopify app and ProtectMyOrder setup the widget on a draft theme
• The widget was then pushed out to the live theme and they quickly started getting tangible results.
• Setup was complete within a few hours

Here is what the widget looks like in their cart:

The results
