my role

Lead Information Architect / Experience Designer

Phase 1

The first step in this eight week engagement was to create current-state site map to start to identify pain points and gaps within the experience.

Phase 2

The next step took place on site with the client where we conducted a stakeholder workshop.  We identified 7 steps to the typical Sprouts customer journey and walked through each journey through the lense of 3 personas provided by the clients.  We identified a number of pain points and opportunities for improved customer satisfaction and increased engagement. We then synthesized our workshop findings and created our next deliverable, 4 customer journey maps.

Phase 3

While our data science and business analyst teams were working on a technical assesment, I created a future state sitemap informed by stakeholder interviews, workshops,  and prioritization exercises.

Phase 4

For the last phase of our engagement, I partnered with the PS creative design team on experience concepts. We created 9 concepts/conversation starters that ranged in level of effort from quick wins to future visions.  We created these experiences to take advantage of the opportunities identified.
