Challenge
The franchise’s parent company had launched a new application, which had low download and engagement rates.
The IT department understood that it could be a design issue, but we suggested a user journey mapping project to understand the context of the application during the journey.
Process
We started the project with an immersion in Experimento’s business with a round of interviews with stakeholders.
After the interviews, we did an initial study of the application and a benchmarking of its competitors.
After this study, we applied interviews with 15 customers from several states in Brazil who had just returned from their exchange trips.
In the final phase of the project, we documented the current user journey and co-created the ideal journey with the Experimento team, taking into account both technology and business issues.
Results
- Understanding that the focus of the application should be on offering services, as opposed to what was being offered (social networks and gamification);
- Report with insights to improve the application and also Experimento’s customer service;
- After the suggested updates, the download rate and the usage time of the app increased.
