Identifying the problem

Research showed that users engaged more with the platform when their brand was clearly represented in their emails and templates. However, the tools available didn’t make it easy to organize and use brand assets efficiently, which was a problem for maintaining brand consistency. Our research and user feedback indicated that users often struggled with applying their brand consistently across their marketing materials. They found it frustrating to locate and apply brand assets, which led to inconsistent branding and lower engagement.

Outcome

Post-implementation, we saw a marked improvement in user satisfaction and engagement metrics. Users reported spending significantly less time managing brand assets, which allowed them to focus more on strategic tasks. The consistent application of brand elements across campaigns resulted in a more polished and professional brand image. Positive user feedback confirmed that the new system was intuitive and efficient, meeting the project's goals and validating our design approach.
