140% increase in conversion rate through improved landing page design

With over 40 years of experience, Gehlen is an established name in the industry. Although the expertise and knowledge within the company are enormous, this did not translate to the desired results on the old landing page. The page consisted mainly of plain text with minimal visual support. Time for a thorough optimization in which we made Gehlen's authority visible to the visitor.

Review Gaston
"Since we partnered with OMA, private leads and showroom visits have increased quite a bit. Now we are in the process of focusing additional attention on the business market."

The challenge

The biggest challenge at Gehlen lay in the presentation of the proposition. In an industry where visual aspects and craftsmanship are decisive for consumers, a text-heavy page hit the mark.

Our analysis showed that the 40+ years of experience and the many positive customer experiences were not sufficiently emphasized. Visitors were left with unanswered questions, causing unnecessary friction in the funnel.

The approach 

Our approach for the new landing page was based on three central pillars: visual authority, social proof and friction reduction. We worked on a new design that focused on the 6 elements below.

  1. More visual support  
  2. Attention to the company's years of experience 
  3. Highlighting social proof 
  4. Emphasize authority through partner logos 
  5. Solving objections via FAQ 
  6. Conversion-driven flow

The result 

After rolling out the new design, we analyzed the results in GA4. Even though no changes were made to the conversion rate itself, the impact of the visual and psychological changes was huge: 

  • Conversion rate: increased from 1.9% to 4.5%.
  • Conversion increase: +140% more requests from the same number of visitors

Conclusion 

Gehlen's case proves that design is much more than just "making something pretty." By translating the client's decades of experience into visual authority and actively capitalizing on psychological triggers such as social proof and authority, we nearly tripled the effectiveness of the landing page. A great result that shows how powerful data-driven CRO design can be.
