Keebos growth playbook

Diagnosis

Keebos has a clear product, a wide model range, active SEO content and a site real visitors find fast. The gaps are in the catalogue: "Select your phone model" is a real, purchasable $49.90 variant on 32 products, the all-black cases stop at iPhone 14, bundles have been "NEW!

Limited Time" for years, the homepage still lists iPhone 5, and the wallet-free option lives in cart notes. Reviews lag the "10,000 customers" claim. This playbook fixes the catalogue first, then grows reviews, partners for accessibility and healthcare teams, uses phone launches to win repeat orders, adds strap drops and creators, and bets on a MagSafe case, wholesale and personalisation.

Growth Score

6/10

Biggest Opportunity

Use the phone model in every order: no orders without one, current cases for every model, and an upgrade email every time a new phone launches.

Biggest Risk

Better-known rivals with MagSafe (Custype), personalisation (CASETiFY) and huge review counts (Loopy) win shoppers who compare on those points.

01

Start here

The three moves to make first. Each one is written up in full below.

  1. 1

    Stop selling "Select your phone model" as a real $49.90 variant on 32 products

    Search last quarter's orders for SKUs containing "CHOOSE" or "NOSIZE".

Quick wins with a clear first action.

  • 01

    Every crossbody case and both $79.90 bundles have a first variant named "Select your phone model". It is a real variant at full price, in stock, and it is the one selected when the page loads. We added the Sunset case to a cart with it and the cart accepted "Crossbody Phone Case - Sunset (Black) - Select your phone model" at $49.90. Any path that skips the dropdown (a quick add, a shared cart link, a Shop app or Google listing, an AI shopping assistant reading agents.md) can create an order with no phone model, which support then has to chase by email. Analytics also records "Select your phone model" as the variant people view, so model demand is hidden.

    Smallest test

    Set the placeholder's inventory to zero with "stop selling" on the Sunset case today.

    Why it works

    Delete the placeholder variant from all 32 products and show the dropdown with no model chosen (Dawn supports an unselected first option with a short theme change), so Add to cart stays disabled until a model is picked. If the variant must stay for now, set its inventory to 0 with "stop selling when out of stock" so it can never be bought. Then check last quarter's orders for the placeholder SKUs (they all contain "CHOOSE" or "NOSIZE") to size the problem.

    Wrong or missing models mean delayed shipments, support emails and returns on a product that only works if it fits. Removing the placeholder also cleans product feeds and gives true demand by phone model for buying decisions.

    ChecklistPlaceholder removal list

    [ ] Export all variants titled "Select your phone model" (32 products)

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Bundles rely on the variant

      Rebuild bundle options with the model as a required choice.

    • Reviews tied to variants

      Reviews sit on products, so deleting a variant keeps them.

    Evidence

    • Your catalogue32 products, including every crossbody case and both $79.90 bundles, have a first variant called "Select your phone model" that is a real variant at full price ($49.90 on most cases), marked available with inventory set to keep selling, and selected by default when a product page loads. When we added the Sunset case with that variant, the cart accepted it as "Crossbody Phone Case - Sunset (Black) - Select your phone model", $49.90 (we then emptied the cart). The page's "Viewed Product" analytics event also reports "Select your phone model" as the variant viewed.Source
    • Your websiteThe store publishes Shopify's agents.md and an agentic discovery sitemap, so AI shopping assistants can read the catalogue and add variants to a cart on a buyer's behalf.Source
    • Your websiteFAQ: MagSafe "Currently, it's not; we are working on a magsafe version"; a case without the wallet only by mentioning it "in the add to cart comments"; customers who cannot find their model are told to email support; "30-Day money back guarantee"; shipping free in the US, usually same or next day, 3-5 days to arrive; $14.90 international. The product picker already labels "iPhone Duo (no wallet)".Source
  • 02

    The Sunset case fits 75 phones up to iPhone 18 Pro Max and Galaxy S26, but Midnight (All Black) and Black Voyage stop at iPhone 14 Pro Max. Anyone with a phone from the last four years who wants an all-black Keebos finds no model to pick.

    Smallest test

    Add the routing line to both pages today.

    Why it works

    Either produce Midnight and Voyage cases for current iPhones, Galaxy and Pixel (the strap is the difference, so the Sunset case body may work with a black strap), or add a line at the top of both pages: "For iPhone 15 and newer, choose Sunset with the Midnight strap", linking to that combination.

    All-black is the safest colour for a wearable accessory; a dead end on it loses buyers who already chose Keebos.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Inventory cost

      Start with iPhone 16 to 18 sizes.

    Evidence

    • Your catalogueModel coverage: the Sunset case lists 75 models, from iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro Max to Galaxy S26 Ultra and Pixel 11 Pro XL. Two long-running cases stop at iPhone 14 Pro Max with 22 iPhone-only choices: "Crossbody Phone Case - Midnight (All Black)" ($49.90, listed since 2019) and "Black Crossbody iPhone Case - Black Voyage" ($54.90).Source

    Rename the Bestseller Bundle today.

    Why it works

    Use plain titles ("Keebos Bestseller Bundle"), move savings into a badge driven by compare-at price, and reserve "New" for products under 60 days old with a tag that expires. Run real, dated offers in email.

    Honest urgency protects trust for a brand that sells on "real human support", and clean titles read better in search and AI shopping.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Lower urgency

      Use real seasonal offers with end dates.

    Evidence

    • Your catalogueProduct titles that promise novelty or a deadline long after launch: "Keebos Bestseller Bundle (NEW! Limited Time Offer 40% off)" (listed February 2024), "Keebos Travel Pack Bundle (NEW!

    Why it works

    Create an accessibility page with fit and strap guidance, a carer gift option, and a partner offer for occupational therapists, senior living communities and Parkinson's groups (codes for residents, a sample kit for therapists).

    This audience buys on recommendation and is underserved by fashion-led rivals; it adds a steady, non-seasonal channel.

    Email last year's iPhone 15 buyers about iPhone 18 cases.

    Why it works

    Store the model on the customer profile, and when a new iPhone, Galaxy or Pixel launches, email owners of older models a "new phone, same Keebos" offer: case-only or case plus a new strap. Add a "case only" product.

    Repeat purchases from existing customers cost far less than new ones, and the model data is already captured at checkout.

When we added the Sunset case with that variant, the cart accepted it as "Crossbody Phone Case - Sunset (Black) - Select your phone model", $49.90 (we then emptied the cart). The page's "Viewed Product" analytics event also reports "Select your phone model" as the variant viewed.Source

    Why it works

    Offer initial charms or engraved strap clips as an add-on, with gift packaging, and test them in the gift season.

    Personalised items earn higher prices and fewer returns, and they are shareable.

    Smallest test

    Survey buyers about trackers.

    Why it works

    Test a slim tracker sleeve that fits the card wallet or strap, and sell it as an add-on with a guide to finding lost items.

    It extends the "never lose it" promise to keys and cards and raises order value.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Tracker sizes vary

      Design for the most common one.

How Programmable can help

Where an idea in this playbook is something Programmable builds or runs, it's listed here with what we'd do. Everything else is yours to run.

ProgrammableDigital

Show it, don't just describe it

These ideas need something to show: a demo, a video, an animation, graphics or a deck. Digital turns screenshots or the site into all of them, in the company's own brand.

The research behind the plan

2 research areas, each summarised in a few lines. Open any of them for the full detail.

Customers

What customers say

Customers value hands-free and never dropping the phone. The most cited problem: finding the right phone model.

  • Cards and cash in the case
  • No MagSafe version
  • In their words: “crossbody phone case”

Market

Competitive landscape

4 competitors compared: Bandolier, CASETiFY, Custype and Loopy.

  • Gap to exploit: Hands-free phones for older adults and people with limited grip
  • Bandolier: Higher prices
  • CASETiFY: Crossbody is a side line
