TL;DR
TL;DR
Problem: The hero over-indexed on the signup form; users weren’t absorbing value before committing.
Outcome: Increasing product emphasis (larger image, message clarity, form reposition) raised early-funnel engagement; signups were mixed, guiding a more targeted second iteration.
Role/Timeline: Design lead, 3–4 weeks, experiment owner, cross-functional with PM/Engineering/Content.

Context & Constraints
Context & Constraints
Audience: High share of returning/known users skewed results.
KPI: Signups; supporting: email starts, OTP views, CTR on value elements.
Constraints: Shared hero, limited copy changes in V1.

Heatmap overlay + event funnels to locate drop-offs.
Two hero variants: (A) form-first (control) vs (B) value-first with product centerpiece.
Copy audit to reduce cognitive load (fewer fields, crisp promise).

What we learned
What we learned
Early Success Did Not Translate to Final Conversions
Despite strong performance in early metrics, both treatments saw a drop in overall signup rates compared to the control:
Treatment A:
A significant decline in signup rates, indicating that while users engaged with the redesigned elements, they struggled to complete the process.
Treatment B:
A smaller, statistically insignificant drop in signup rates, hinting at a more balanced design but still failing to achieve a net positive impact.

Target Audience:
Challenge: 30% of participants were existing, logged-in users—outside our intended cohort—diluting the results.
Lesson: Future tests will target only “new-to-new” users to ensure relevance and clear impact.
Experiment Visibility:
Challenge: Our demo sat below the fold, so only 37 % of users ever saw it—limiting its impact.
Lesson: Position interactive elements above the fold to ensure they reach and engage the majority of visitors.
Data Dilution:
Challenge: Exposure fired on page load—counting users who never engaged and skewing our metrics.
Lesson: Trigger exposure only after a user interacts with the demo to capture true engagement.

Research and Competitive Analysis
Competitive Layout Analysis:
Studied hero sections of competitor pages to understand effective arrangements of product shots and signup forms.
Heatmap Analysis:
Engagement Rate: Measured how well users interacted with site elements to assess intuitiveness.
Exposure Rate: Analyzed scroll depth to evaluate how much of the hero section users viewed.
Attractiveness Rate: Measured the percentage of visitors who clicked on an element after exposure.
Click Rate: Assessed user interaction with specific elements, identifying the most attention-grabbing and underperforming areas.
Design Process
Ideation: Brainstormed ways to balance the signup form and product shot to align user needs with business goals.
Wireframes and Prototyping:
Created wireframes for different layouts and prototyped interactive elements like an animated product shot.
Data Analysis:
Analyzed A/B testing results and heatmap data from the previous timeline demo to understand user behaviors and drop-off points.
Identified areas for improvement, such as visibility and step completion rates.
Workshops:
Facilitated a Crazy Eights workshop with PMs, engineers, and stakeholders to generate ideas and align on the demo's user flow.
Prioritized simplicity and engagement to maximize impact.
Design and Development:
Built a streamlined version of Jira Software, focused on board and issue features.
Added content-populated guiding cards and interactive elements (editable fields, pre-filled content) to create an engaging, step-by-step demo experience.
