Development
The Betsy Ross Hardwood Collection is a private label collection of Engineered Hardwood flooring for Fishman Flooring Solutions. Our aim was to put a great emphasis on the story behind the product. The wood is grown in America, harvested in America and is manufactured in a voluntary Prison Industry Enterprise program. This program employs incarcerated individuals and has been proven to reduce recidivism rates from 50% to less than 10%.

Product Launch
We had a blast launching this product to our marketplace. You can see our Vendor Representatives in the photo to the right at Fishman’s 2017 sales meeting. They dressed to impress!
In preparation for the launch, I developed all the logos, artwork, sample labels, sales flyers, promotional material, and other graphics. You can see an example of the interactive PDF I created for our Business Managers to easily show off the beautiful room scenes. You can click on each color swatch to go directly to the room scene.
UX (User Experience)

For this reason, we created QR code stickers for each color swatch that would take the customer directly to a room scene photo of that color installed.
Not only did this provide customers with a better buying experience, but it also allowed us to gather valuable data on their buying behaviors. Since I created dynamic tracking campaigns for each QR code, I was able to run analytic reports to see traffic from each scan.
The QR codes took users to the landing pages we developed below:
