OUR SERVICESWorkshops

Expert AssessmentsAre you meeting your objectives online? Our experts in strategy and user experience design can perform an assessment of your goals and current site, and make recommendations for ways to improve.

Persona DevelopmentKnowing what to do online means knowing who your users are. We will conduct research and help you prioritize, resulting in a set of personas that will capture the most important information about your audience.

Concept PrototypesTap into our ideas for what you can do next online. Sometimes it’s more effective to brainstorm concepts independent of actually building them. This can help you build internal buy-in for your plans.

User Experience DesignWe excel at visual identity and branding, interaction design, information architecture, content strategy, and usability. We can deliver the documentation your existing development team needs to build the site, or we can help you evaluate potential partners and manage the entire process.

PERSONA DEVELOPMENT

6

Do you know who uses your products — and who doesn’t?

Do you have a crystal clear picture of your target users, so you can make the right decisions about what to do and how to prioritize?

Designing a better user experience starts with a better understanding of who your users really are. Our approach to customer research delivers clear descriptions of your target audience and actionable recommendations for how best to serve them. User personas can help focus your internal team on the needs of the most important people: your customers.

Our approach typically includes:

_Background briefings with client stakeholders and review of existing customer and third party research

_Contextual research (in-home, in-office, or in the field) with current or potential users

_Synthesis of research findings to develop a core set of personas

_Workshops to prioritize the personas and make the insights actionable within your organization

CONCEPT PROTOTYPES

7

Imagine the future. Bring ideas to life. Sell your vision to stakeholders. Gain internal buy-in. Get feedback early in the process. Work iteratively.

Too often, good ideas fail because decision-makers couldn’t envision the proposed solution. And good projects fail because not enough time was spent imagining what could be built and then refining the design.

We excel at developing prototypes that explain concepts and imagine future interfaces. By developing a demo, we help stakeholders envision the final product, and give potential users something to respond to.

Our approach typically includes:

_Brainstorming and research to generate ideas

_Rapid, iterative design to create interface mockups

_Front-end development in HTML or Flash

_Demo scripting and presentation to internal stakeholders

_Usability testing with potential users

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN

We make the internet better for the people who use it. We can make your digital products and services better for you.

Designing online experiences that people actually want to use is the core of our business. Our experts in strategy, design, and technology work together to develop a solution that creates value for your business and that works better for your users.

Our approach typically includes:

_Research with stakeholders, market data, competitors, and your users

_Brainstorming and concepting to arrive at a vision for the new user experience

_ Information architecture, resulting in annotated wireframes

_Visual and identity design, resulting in design comps and a style guide

_Content strategy, resulting in updated copy and a style guide

_Usability testing at one or more defined points in the process
