About  the  Project

This  case  study  documents  the  process  I  took  to  research  and  design  a  fictional  e-­‐‑commerce  store  from  brief  to  clickable  prototype  in  a  few  days.  

I  worked  as  part  of  a  student  team  but  the  design  deliverables  presented  are  my  own.

USER FLOWS & SCENARIOS

SCENARIOS Method •  Brainstorming  goals  and  pain  points  for  each  Persona

•  John  -­‐‑  Returning  customer •  Sarah  -­‐‑  New  customer •  Jess  -­‐‑  Corporate  customer  (school  administrator)

Findings •  The  team  prioritised  the  experience  flow  and  must-­‐‑have  content  for  each  of  the  three  

Personas Opportunities  identified •  New  customer  –  provide  an  all-­‐‑in-­‐‑one  “Essentials”  product  bundle  for  each  school,  so  its  

easy  for  Sarah  to  know  exactly  what  she  needs  to  buy •  Returning  customer  –  provide  an  Express  Checkout  and  clear  price  comparison  so  it’s  a  

quick,  efficient  experience  for  John  to  buy  just  a  few  items. •  Business  customer  –  provide  a  customer  Account  set-­‐‑up  process  for  schools  to  create  

product  bundles  so  it’s  easy  for  Jess  to  provide  parents  with  a  one-­‐‑stop-­‐‑shop  for  all  their  uniform  needs

THE SOLUTION

Design  a  household  calendar  app  that  enables  Deepa  and  Sam  to  co-­‐‑ordinate  tasks  easily.

QUICK CLICKABLE PROTOTYPE

PROTOTYPE V.1 Method •  I  created  a  quick  clickable  prototype  using  Omnigraffle User  Journey  1 John,  as  a  returning  customer,  can  find  a  single  item  and  check-­‐‑out  quickly. Scenarios •  Finding  an  individual  item •  Express  Checkout User  Journey  2 Sarah,  as  a  first-­‐‑time  customer,  can  find  a  selection  of  items  required  by  her  child’s  school  and  check-­‐‑out  easily  on  her  iPad. Scenarios •  Finding  a  school  “Essentials”  uniform  product  listing •  New  Customer  Checkout

DESIGN PROTOTYPE

PROTOTYPE V2 The  second  iteration  of  the  product  focused  on  interaction  design  optimised  for  mobile  web  through  the  “express  checkout”  user  journey  of  John,  our  returning  customer:

USABILITY TESTING

USABILITY TESTING Test  process We  found  5  participants  willing  to  test  our  prototype.  We  gave  them  all  three  tasks  to  perform  on  our  prototype    User  testing  tasks 1.  You  are  buying  a  polo  shirt  for  your  daughter.  Show  me  how  you  would  go  about  it 2.  You  are  a  new  customer.  Take  me  through  your  checkout  process 3.  You  are  a  returning  customer.  Take  me  through  your  checkout  process

FINDINGS •  4  out  of  5  participants  used  the  main  menu  on  the  Home  page  to  

go  to  the  Product  page,  rather  than  the  large  search  field. •  2  out  of  5  preferred  Guest  Checkout  even  though  they  were  

returning  customers

•  Change  “Sign-­‐‑up”  to  “New  Customer”  to  avoid  confusion  with  “Sign-­‐‑In”

•  Add  Back  bujon  on  the  cart •  Checkout  could  be  even  quicker  for  returning  customers:

•  Sign-­‐‑In  !  Shipping/Billing  (auto-­‐‑filled)  !  Review  Order Or •  Sign-­‐‑In  !  Review  Order  (with  Shipping/billing  auto-­‐‑filled) Then  offer •  option  to  Save  Details  and  join  as  a  Member
