Timeline

The Problem

Improve the UX and visual simplicity of whitespace that focuses visitors on the main CTA

Rearrange text hierarchy to reduce back and forth reading

Update colors to reflect current brand colors.

The Solution

Implemented one headline as a “hook” to effectively engage visitors.

Made product name, N!ck’s, more prominent so users know which product to look for

Introduced branding on the landing page

Updated colors to reflect current brand colors.

Key characteristics that help make a landing page look great and convert well

UX Simplicity

Introduced brand messaging with text/visual hierarchy of “hook” messaging to users why their product is unique and why they’re different from other brands in the industry

Showed a balance between very colorful packaging and imagery with simple and clean sections to attract attention

Included a mixture of products on a blank background and some in different environments 

Displayed the coupon above the fold in the hero

Visual and Psychological Aspects

Used ingredient icons as texture for background or along with imagery

Considered animated imagery to engage and excite users

Used value props as icons to build trust with customers

Social Proof / Us vs. Them

We conveyed a feeling of trust by displaying widgets like trust badges, ratings, awards, or reviews

Included short and sweet PR testimonials from real users to help users understand the product just under the foldo

Reflections & Learnings

If I were given more time to work on this project, I would participate in usability testing to test our research findings and theories to help eliminate any bias which would give me more opportunities to design a better user experience in the future!
