Design Process

Persona Building

Empowering Makers Who Know Little about Running An Online Business

 

Collaborating with one UX researcher and Business team, we refined a maker persona based on the primary Michaels e-commerce persona. We revisited Ann-Charlotte several times through the iteration process and her limited business background played a crucial role when we made design decisions and pitched solutions during shareholder reviews.
