The Task
WhyBuy is a London rental company built on a simple question: why buy something you'll only use once or twice? It rents out tools, garden and cleaning equipment, party kit, kitchen appliances, tech and kids' gear, all from top brands and professionally maintained. Customers can hire for anything from a day to six weeks, with essential add-ons included.
Orders are booked online. Customers choose a two-hour delivery slot, or collect from the shop in north London, and WhyBuy collects again in a two-hour slot at the end of the hire. Delivery covers everywhere within the M25. Each item is priced for a first hire period, with a set charge for every extra day.
The store runs on Shopify, with availability, bookings and checkout handled by Booqable on a separate booking subdomain. We were asked to sharpen the brand, make the site easier to shop and get more visitors through to a booking. The work covered brand, UX and design, Shopify development and digital marketing, including Google and social ads, affiliates and Klaviyo email.
