How do you define UX?

12. 12
● UX is User Satisfaction:
○ Ensure users can do what they want
to do
● UX is “Humanizing” technology
● UX as a Process:
○ The cost of fixing an error after
completion is 100x more than fixing
it prior to completion
● UX as KPIs:
○ Conversion rate
● 1.4 Trillion lost in ecommerce
(abandoned order due to a too
long / complicated checkout
process or because they
needed to create an account)
UX Defined

13. 13

Resistance
As they were starting out in the summer of 2008, the founders needed a way to raise
money. They bought a ton of cereal and designed special election-themed boxes, released
that fall-- Obama O’s and Cap’n McCain’s, which they sold at convention parties for $40 a
box, helping them to raise around $30K for Airbed & Breakfast.

○ Process based on the user’s expressed
needs and feedback
○ Use Personas as a guiding light

User Personas

20. 63% of marketers optimize sites based on intuition and best practices
- CrazyEgg

22. “If you want to offer products or services that have
value for your customers, you must first make the
effort to understand what customers consider
valuable.”
UX Storytellers

23. User personas are examples of the real
people who make decisions on your site.
They lay the groundwork for UX, design and
content.

24. 24
UX: User Personas

■ Likely workflow and user
journey

Digital Shift - Cultural Relevancy
“François-Henri Pinault—the French billionaire and chief executive of luxury
conglomerate Kering Co., whose brands include Gucci and Saint
Laurent—described “a real reallocation from what we spent on print to the
internet.” Mr. Pinault estimates that Kering spends 35% to 40% of its
communication budget on digital, compared with 15% to 20% some 18
months ago.“ If we were to launch a brand today, all the communication to
start would be online,” he says.”
