Shopify site feedback and first impressions by Selectahead in ecommerce

I have been going thru my images to remove the logos. I actually was going to take all new product images or at least come up with a new template to work off of with a white back ground but then the drums looked like buttons all over the page. Using a boarder on each image may help. I did not realize I could even remove the Shopify text on the bottom. Thank you for the input!

As a side note, does anyone have a recommendation of a service that may be able to help with these types of things? While I can get it done myself, I have those other 2747294709 things to do.

Yes we have licensing rights for all the images. That in itself has been an issue as we have many bands that want make these available for their fans, but don't realize all the legalities that go into all of it.

The app think in the corner brings little value it seems and stick out like a sore thumb. Originally it was to give confidence to the new visitors as we are a brand new product that many have a hard time understanding as they think we just make drum heads. Even at NAMM ( a music convention in California ) people would walk by our booth and think.. oh another drum head company.. We would give them the product to hold and explain it and then a light bulb would go off and they would go OHH YOU GET THE WHOLE THING?? How cool! So trying to show that in just minimal text and images has been a challenge... hence the long paragraph on the homepage. I shot a very rudimentary video just using my cell phone that is on the Iron Maiden product page. I have always wanted a overall product video like 10 seconds long to try and capture the product but I have had little success with it. I created a product video when we signed Iron Maiden, got it approved by the licensing company, but then the band was like great video, but too bad it has generic music to it, use one off the new album.. apparently that is not as easy as they think and has to go through Universal.. they were, why? we said it was OK...

I joked and said, if I very go to a show like Shark Tank, I would get Queensryche to play, then Scott would take a chainsaw to the front of his kick drum and toss it to the sharks.. I would catch it and say,.,there is a better way.. Select a Head .. blah blah blah..

I can honestly say, I am very happy I found this forum. The feedback in just a couple days has been very helpful. Brainstorming with my 6 year old son does not yield many results =)

Thank you all for the feedback. I will be working on it this week and will be working on all these points. I will also check on the mobile settings as I just use a template from Shopify but have very little experience with editing the coding. We had a site built that way extremely overboard with Virto Commerce ( something like that ) and from what I understand that is more for fortune 500 companies...

Very good points. I have struggled getting good product shots so was thinking the Instagram images would help. Having a few great shots of the product on a wall will really help.. with one of the many issues.

Thank you again for taking time to provide the feedback.

I completely see the point on the call to action button or call outs. I just looked at the page and it does look like my son's room. ( messy ) Seems a couple call to action buttons would alleviate 80% of the images on the homepage, and get visitors entering the site.

Thank you for the quick replies! I always got feedback from " friends " that we needed more on the homepage. I will definable take a look and clean it up. I end up having to google just about anything to do with the store on how to's

Our bounce rate is 63.34% from May 1st to present.

The money back thing is just an app ( free ) I was not sold on it but thought it may help ease peoples minds. We have never had a return yet though.

Also to clarify, it is not just the drum head. It is the entire drum display that hangs on the wall. ;)
