Value props

58Fair

Title, subtitle, hero — do they sell the product's true value?

Paloma’s headline vaguePurpose-built software for companies that make real thingsThe tools your operations team would build themselves, if they had the engineers. We're those engineers.

Working

  • Subhead names a real pain: no engineers
  • Clear audience: physical-goods companies
  • Confident, distinct voice

Could improve

  • Headline names no outcome or benefit
  • Hero photo shows scenery, not the product
  • Zero numbers or proof points in fold

Mobile web

62Fair

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture123
  1. Book a call button — Primary CTA sits below the first viewport and is desktop-sized, not full-bleed for thumbs.
  2. Hero factory image — Full-width image plus long subhead pushes the only CTA out of the first screen.
  3. Why Paloma button — Low-contrast secondary button crowds the primary CTA on the same row, splitting the tap target.

CTA

72Fair

Copy, size, verb, cost-feel — does the primary CTA earn the click?

Paloma

Problems

  • click feels costly — sales call
  • no low-commitment alternative path
  • modest footprint vs headline

Information hierarchy

76Fair

Does the design help or inhibit what the page is trying to say?

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture123
  1. Subheadline below hero image — The value line 'The tools Paloma's operations team would build themselves' sits 550px down, beneath the image, so the promise is separated from the headline that sets it up.
  2. Duplicate Book a call — Two 'Book a call' buttons in one fold (nav and hero) split the primary action; the nav copy competes at equal weight with the hero CTA.
  3. Hero factory image — The dithered industrial photo is the largest element in the fold and outranks both the headline above and the CTA below it in the scan path.
