With identity protection, the market segment is rich with opportunity but also full of competition; first we took a deep dive into what their competitors were doing that was working. We then tried to see if there were opportunities they were missing out on by looking at search trends and demographics. After creating some audience personas for people that would potentially be looking at the site, we knew we needed to keep the emphasis on vulnerability. We needed to represent people in the older Gen X or younger Baby Boomer generations who actually have something to lose if they don’t have identity protection.
Only after fully understanding the “why” by wholly digesting the reasoning behind what people are buying into when they buy this financial product could we even begin to create anything of substance for the client. This deep-dive excursion enabled us to start sketching out layouts and workshopping layouts and element opportunities with key members of the AmTrust marketing team. We used our own consultative approach to begin in order to create a clear trust-eliciting layout that hit all of the high notes we needed in order to sell the most of this type of product to this audience.
With website design for a financial product, the challenge is really around keeping the right content available so that if people want to really dig into the “why” of the product, they can while getting their questions answered quickly.
Equal attention was paid to the mobile-responsive elements of this financial product’s web design project. No one wants to visit a site on their phone and see that it was paid little to no attention, or find they have to do the pinch and zoom. Mobile traffic is becoming impossible to ignore, and for many companies the opportunity to improve in this area is huge. Whether you’re looking for a team who has experience in financial product web design, a better mobile-responsive web presence, or just know your website could be more professional, we can help.
