user experience design & strategy
Our 5-Step Process for Planning & Conducting

2. June UX specializes
in UX design &
usability testing.

3. We’ve conducted over
300 usability tests
on paper, prototypes,
websites & apps.
On average, we uncover 113 issues per
usability study.

4. This is the 5-step
process we use to
plan & conduct
moderated usability
studies.

5. step 1
Discovery

6. First, we lay the
groundwork.

7. We learn about the
objectives of your
usability study…

8. What
you specifically
want to learn.

9. Who
you want to
test your site
or software.

10. We use this
information to
write a detailed
usability test plan.

11. step 2
Recruiting &
Scheduling

12. Next,
we find the
right people
for your study.

13. We believe the
recruiting process
makes or breaks
the quality of a
usability study.

14. We use a
rigorous approach
to find participants
who truly represent
your users.

15. And we weed out
those who aren’t a
good match.

16. We find
high-quality
participants using a
number of methods.

17. • Your email database
• Your website (via an
intercept tool)
• Your social media
accounts
• Research panel

18. We also use many
creative methods
to recruit
hard-to-find
participants.

19. step 3
Script
Development

20. Next,
we set up the test
in a way that
ensures we collect
good data.

21. A comprehensive
discussion guide
ensures each session
is conducted in a
consistent manner.

22. In a 60-minute session,
a test participant
might complete
2 to 7 tasks.

23. Or, we might create
tasks with the
participant rather than
give pre-defined tasks.

24. step 4
Facilitation

25. We can conduct a
usability study
anywhere…

26. …at a formal research
facility, a conference
room at your office, or
even the participant’s
kitchen table.

27. It’s showtime!

28. As an observer,
you will be able to
watch and listen to the
sessions in real-time.

29. We use a detailed
discussion guide to
facilitate sessions,
but a test can go in
any direction.

30. Some participants will
only complete one task.
Others will rush through
with time to spare.

31. We plan for that.

32. Once a task is
given to a participant,
we try to remain mute.

33. We find this gives
us better,
truer insights
into the user flow
& experience.

34. After each task,
we ask follow-up
questions & explore
trouble spots more
deeply.

35. At the end of each
session, your team will
have a chance to
submit additional
questions.

36. In between test
sessions, we lead
recap sessions
with you & your team.

37. Recap sessions are
critical to the success
of a usability study.
You will see things
no one else sees.

38. By the fifth test session,
the biggest usability
issues will be
absolutely clear…

39. But we recommend a
minimum of 8-10
sessions to uncover
the majority of
usability issues.

40. step 5
Analysis &
Findings

41. After the usability study,
we analyze the findings
& then present the
major themes to you.

42. We know presentation
decks will be shared
with teams who were
not involved in the
usability study.

43. Our usability reports
are designed to be
immediately
actionable
& shareable.

44. Learn more about our

45. Happy users online
equals a happy
bottomline.

46. Make happy users.
