The primary goal of our user flow is to drive high-intent customers to book a consultation with our sales team. A major barrier existed in the middle of the funnel:
The Funnel Gap: The highest point of drop-off (>64%) occurred between the complex Solar Calculator and the final Booking Page.
Root Cause Hypothesis: The Calculator was highly data-intensive, requiring high data literacy and presenting an unfamiliar UI. This created a jarring transition into the high-commitment booking step.
Initial Solution: Design and introduce a new product summary page to act as a crucial transition layer, reducing cognitive load and improving comprehension using a familiar "shopping basket" UI design.
Original flow from solar calculator to booking page
New summary page introduced
Simple design: format favours words over graphs and numbers
Next steps explained
Option to send a copy to your email address (allows us to build a high-intent email audience segment)
6% improved conversion rate from calculator page to booking action
High bounce rate (57%) back to calculator: data is framed differently and looks new, users want to go back and check against the calculator
50% of users sent themselves a copy


Improved UI: less text, easier scannability
Moved all data and charts to the calculator page for better information architecture (data on the calculator page, products here)
Improved value proposition: added trust markers and services, discounts, savings and reduced price emphasised, optional extras added
Conversion rate and bounce rate improved but drop-off from this page remained high
Hypothesis 1: the 'shopping basket' UI and total price suggested a bigger commitment than was required (i.e. buy now)
Hypothesis 2: customers are interpreting this page as an accurate quote
All pricing information removed
Retained all non-pricing details (products and discounts)
Customers can still email themselves a copy
Conversion rate increased by 30% over a 4-week period
Creating a value gap gave customers an incentive to speak to us
Email segment performs with 14% higher CVR compared to main audience (captured before solar calculator)
