The Rundown
Sept '18 - Nov '18

My role was to increase the visual fidelity and improve the overall usability of the company's product, a responsive website and soon-to-be iOS app.

I worked with the Product and Growth teams to rapidly iterate, research, and launch new features and redesigns for live A/B testing with STEEZY's paid customers. Some of the implementations that I helped launch included a redesign of the pricing plan and sign-up funnel, and the conception of a progress tracker/home dashboard upon sign-in for users.

Process & Workflow

I worked in agile sprints with the Product and Growth teams, spending 2-3 weeks at a time iterating on a new feature or redesign while analyzing the A/B test results of the previous feature/redesign. 

The two biggest issues that I faced was increasing user retention, measured by A/B test results, and improving the overall user experience, measured by NPS scores after a 7-day free trial period.

Impact & Results

STEEZY is a data-driven company, utilizing software like Amplitude and Hotjar to gather quantitative data on its users. However, I noticed a lack of qualitative data, so in order to get a full glimpse on who our users were, I conducted user research. 

I sent surveys to current and former customers, and I also interviewed 20 users to identify specific pain points/friction points to see where STEEZY can improve. I used heatmaps to gauge users' visual focus and interest in the current interface.

In the end, I provided better clarity to the team as to who our users are, in regards to things such as occupation, income level, incentives, user behavior, and common pain points/friction points with the current service.
