User Research

For this new product launch there was careful design decisions to consider. The upside was that the organization has other products within the spot fitness category, giving them the necessary insights to understand the target users. We were able to set expectations based on consumer insights.

Design Considerations

Product, Product, Product

A reoccurring theme in initial brand surveys was that the health and fitness demographic really cares about what they are putting into their bodies more than ever. So considering nutrition facts and focusing on product benefits was key to success. Consumers really care about product info, and is the main purpose for them to engage with the website.

Clear Path to Purchase

In addition to product knowledge, the secondary action we are trying to drive is sales, so giving the consumer a path to purchase or to find available products near them was important in considering what functions we would need to include in our site design. Partnering and being able to purchase online with major e-commerce like Walmart and Amazon brought increased sales.

Engaging Experience

This brand initiative allowed me to explore competitors in the food and beverage space, Doing some competitive research informed the design decision to make the site engaging by including an influencer program and an interactive way to view different flavors.

Wireframes

Lo-Fidelity Prototypes

For speed we used wireframes to map out the content hierarchy. Giving the marketing team some visual to how the site will be structured and to test different interaction ideas around product info, brand finders, ambassador programs, and promotions.

The Experience

Prototypes

Hi-Fidelity Prototype

Providing Hi-Fidelity comps helped the teams visualize the end product for responsive web design, interaction design, and layout. My ability to design in the browser gave the teams an added layer support to show off the design in the browsers.

Retrospective

Project Design Challenges

Time Constraints

Due to the time sensitive store product launch, the design and evelopment team had a condensed timeline to go live. So understanding this constraint and as well as working with a new marketing team we pushed for a design sprint in order to validate design ideas quickly as well as build a trusting relationship of this young and new marketing team by including them in the design process.

Client Feedback

Building off of the understanding of working with a young marketing team, and with my experience I was able to avoid a non constructive feedback loop by structuring our design reviews in an objective manner. Anticipating this challenge resulted in a smoother approval process as well as gained the trust of design for future projects.

What I Learned

Design Leadership

This project was all about speed and creativity. Anticipating the design challenges, I learned that having a solid UX/Design process and knowing how to adjust the game plan to fit the current climate really demonstrates how all of my past experience and education apply to real world design hurdles, and exemplifies good design leadership.

Team Collaboration

Since this project had an aggressive time constraint. Keeping alignment between marketing and development was key to hitting time sensitive launch. Being able to instill trust with professionalism, collaboration and clear communication teams were aligned throughout the project lifecycle which contributed to the project success.
