OVERVIEW

Technogym is a leading premium fitness equipment brand serving both home gym and commercial markets. The website needed to showcase diverse product categories (treadmills, bikes, strength machines, etc.), manage B2B and B2C audiences, and position the brand as an innovation leader in the fitness industry while driving e-commerce conversions across multiple product lines.

GOAL

Build a comprehensive, high-performing e-commerce platform that:
Manage multiple product categories and audiences (home fitness, commercial gyms, professional athletes)
Establish brand authority through design awards and innovation credentials
Create intuitive navigation for diverse customer segments
Optimize for conversions across home and commercial equipment lines
Drive community engagement through membership and exclusive content
Support business partnerships and B2B inquiries

CHALLENGES

Challenge 1: Managing Product Complexity
Extensive product catalog (50+ awards, multiple equipment types) without overwhelming users
Different buying journeys for home gym vs. commercial equipment buyers
Need to showcase innovation and design credibility while selling technical specs
Challenge 2: Multi-Audience Navigation
Home fitness buyers (individuals) vs. commercial gym operators (businesses) need different pathways
Same brand, very different customer needs and decision-making processes
Balancing B2C e-commerce with B2B business solutions
Challenge 3: Building Trust in Premium Category
High-end fitness equipment requires credibility building
50+ design awards since 2004, 14 Red Dot Awards, 18 ADI Awards—needed to showcase without looking arrogant
Competing against well-established fitness brands
Challenge 4: Content & Community Integration
Blog/editorial content mixed with e-commerce
Membership program promotion without detracting from product sales
Creating engagement through stories while maintaining conversion focus
