Since 1958, Coker Tire has grown into the world's largest and most prominent supplier of fine tires and wheels for collector vehicles. Coker ships to every state in the United States and more than 32 foreign countries. As a supplier to a discriminating audience - collectors for whom vehicles are frequently both hobby and passion - the company wanted to ensure that any improvement in its ability to sell online would live up to the customer service and quality which their customers expect and appreciate.
After design and development by Medium, www.cokertire.com offers a store, catalog subscription and download, gallery, collectibles, distributors information, video virtual tours, and even a company blog. The site's design organizes rich layers of information and interactivity, within an interface that is fun and easy to navigate - and, most importantly, drives sales.
Integration is a key design principle throughout the site," said Medium President Josiah Roe. "Medium created a portal for all things Coker. Every online tool and mini-site, from shopping cart to blog, from tours to online vintage tire resource center, all pull together around a central theme - which is increasing Coker's market share and sales."
As a result, the site has already increased requests for the company's catalogue (their strongest resource for orders) by more than 400%.
"Our Cokertire.com website is crisper, faster, and easier for our customers to use thanks to the fine folks at Medium," said Corky Coker, President of Coker Tire. "Our traffic has increased substantially! They're the best!"
