Problem Statement
The company’s biggest product was underperforming due to a high bounce rate and a low conversion rate of just 4.3%. Despite significant marketing investments, the return on ad spend was poor, resulting in unsustainable customer acquisition costs.
The landing page experience was failing to engage users, leading to lost revenue opportunities and limiting business growth. Without a strategic redesign, the company risked further financial strain and market share loss.
User Experience Audit
The visual hierarchy is unclear, and the lack of breathing space makes the area difficult to read, especially for the target user base.
It failed all contrast ratio tests, making most elements unreadable. Additionally, it does not align with other elements on the page, and the font size is too small.
The header overlay image makes readability difficult, especially for users around 50 years old. The design is overly complex, with too many elements in one place, causing the MVP to get lost among other items.
Guests/experts are key, but the page fails to showcase them. No basic information or credibility is provided.
Why Old Checkout Page Failed?
The checkout page’s overall UX and UI are confusing and outdated. The layout is cluttered, and it’s not mobile-optimized. The PayPal radio button UX is also unclear. As a result, our conversion and refund rates dropped to 20%. Additionally, the design is too busy for our target audience, aged 40-70, to easily navigate.
We are not only changing any part but the entire project. And overall UX and User-Flow. Our users are 80% from our mobile and that’s why our approch was mobile first. Also creating another feature inside our MVP that can help us increase our new app user.
Research & Study
I spoke individually with the sales, support, and affiliate teams to understand the user problems. Since they interact closely with users, they provided valuable insights. Based on their experience, I gathered all the information in one place to identify the main issues users were facing.
Brand New Funnel & Stragic Plan
After completing the competitive analysis, I personally started with the user flows. Our CMO, engineers, & CEO made a user flow before I was involved with the project. And our old onboarding user flow was terrible. It couldn't compete with the market because it didn't consider human behavior at all. So, after I finished my competitive analysis, I took matters into my own hands and came up with a new onboarding user flow.
Wireframes
After an extensive and meticulous process and countless brainstorming sessions with the CEO, CTO, PR, and Dev teams, deep research, and strategic discussions. We finally reached a well-defined direction. With clarity and alignment across all stakeholders, we transitioned into the wireframing phase, transforming our insights and ideas into a structured foundation for the product’s design and user experience.
Final Landing Page Design
After an extensive and meticulous process and countless brainstorming sessions with the CEO, CTO, PR, and Dev teams, deep research, and strategic discussions. We finally reached a well-defined direction. With clarity and alignment across all stakeholders, we transitioned into the wireframing phase, transforming our insights and ideas into a structured foundation for the product’s design and user experience.
Brand New Checkout Page
We designed our checkout page with a mobile-first approach, as most of our paid customers access it via mobile after the event ends. The design is clean and uncluttered, offering a user-friendly experience with a clear understanding of what they’re purchasing. We also introduced two upsell courses in the checkout, resulting in a significant increase in purchases.
High Quality Prototype
After completing the design, we tested the prototype in-house multiple times to identify any bugs or user experience issues before handing it off to the engineers. This led to a significant improvement in productivity and reduced the need for code revisions.
Measuring Performance
In addition to design, testing and measuring product performance are essential. My team and I constantly analyze data to assess performance. We use VWO as our testing and measurement tool, gathering user behavior data and other relevant insights to achieve the best results for our products.
