Contribution

As the Principal Product Designer, I led the redesign and optimization of the entire site's user experience. Additionally, I developed and implemented a new brand direction for DePalma Studios, aligning the visual identity with the updated user experience.

Brief

The previous website acted as a substantial obstacle in the sales funnel, resulting in a ~70% bounce rate from the existing landing page. Users were redirected from DePalma's impressive Clutch profile to a lackluster web presence, causing the majority to exit the funnel prematurely.

Along with addressing the visitor bounce rate, my task was to complete a visual refresh and improve the UX and UI of the DePalma Studios website.

Outcomes

Within 2 weeks of the initial launch of the new website DePalma was able to decrease the bounce rate from ~70% to ~32%.
