About Asphalte

Asphalte is a French fashion brand founded in 2016 and built on the principle of responsible production, Asphalte creates timeless, high-quality clothing for men and women—designed with customer input and made in Europe. Instead of mass-producing seasonal collections, the brand uses a pre-order model to avoid waste, reduce costs, and craft clothes that people genuinely want to wear.

The challenge

Asphalte relies on product surveys to shape new collections and grow an engaged email list. But convincing new visitors to take part was challenging—especially if they didn’t understand the brand’s concept right away. The team needed a simple way to explain how the pre-order model works and get more people to sign up.

Key points:

Low response rate to product surveys
Slow lead generation on the website
New visitors didn’t always understand the concept of co-creation of products right away

The winning strategy

1. Introducing the brand's mission and engaging new visitors

Asphalte's team launched a campaign designed to introduce new visitors to the brand’s unique approach. To drive traffic to their product survey, they launched a time-triggered popup shown after 30 seconds to first-time visitors. This campaign invites users to help shape future fashion trends—making for a memorable brand introduction.

"We realized that customer lifetime value was higher after a customer has learned about our mission and how we work"

Benjamin Mateo, head of growth, Asphalte

2. Boosting CTR with A/B tested popup designs

A/B testing played a key role in optimizing popup performance. Using different designs, targeting rules, and messaging were tested to improve engagement. One example was a time-triggered popup designed to encourage visitors to take a product survey.

Two versions of the popup were compared: one was a full-screen format that focused the visitor’s attention, while the other used a different background and visual style. The experiment paid off—click-through rates increased from 15% to 25%.

"Popups are like ads. People don't like them, so we made them fun. A really good popup doesn't feel like a popup at all."

Benjamin Mateo, head of growth, Asphalte

3. Driving visitor engagement with the onsite feed

Asphalte used the onsite feed to share messages about pre-order campaigns, sales, discount codes, blog posts, email list invitations, and stock alerts—each one crafted to feel relevant. By using the feed strategically, Asphalte guided visitors toward key actions and created a seamless, on-brand way to stay connected with their audience.

"The onsite feed is revolutionizing the way we reach our customers. A new lever for us—powerful, personalized, and easy plug-and-play with Shopify"

Benjamin Mateo, head of growth, Asphalte
