USP image in the product gallery: +$10,069/month
Oliver Kenyon added a benefit-focused image to a product gallery that had only product photos, and revenue rose by about $10,069 per month. The image showed six icons for key product traits. Copy and layout stayed the same.
- About +$10,069 per month in revenue (the post rounds to $10K).
- Conversion rate, revenue per session, sample size and test length were not shared.
The change
A benefit icon image joins the product-only gallery.

Control
The gallery held only product photos. The rest of the page, including price, bullets and Add to Cart Now button, was unchanged.
Variant
One slide in the 7-image gallery showed six icons with labels, such as strength, plant-based, vegan and gluten-free cues. The page below stayed the same.
Why it likely won
Our reading of the result, not the practitioner's claim.
- shoppers swipe the gallery before reading, so benefit icons there are seen early.
- icons for diet traits like vegan or gluten-free answer fit questions at a glance.
- a single added slide adds information without adding clutter to the page.
Caveats: No sample size, duration or significance was shared, and only the new design is shown.

How to run this test on your store
- Hypothesis
- If we add a benefit icon image to the product gallery, then conversion rate will rise because shoppers see key product traits while browsing images.
- Primary metric
- Conversion rate
- Guardrails
- Revenue per visitor
- Gallery swipe depth
- Returns rate
- Who should test it
- Stores selling products with clear, scannable traits, like supplements or food with dietary claims. Products bought mainly on looks may gain less from icon slides.
