A confluence of qualitative and quantitative research for Kroger's shopping experience
Capstone Project | Design Lead | Sept'23 - May'24

Executive Summary

Here's a quick rundown!

Business Problem

Kroger aimed to deliver a promotion experience that was both seamless and valuable for our customers . To achieve this, I sought to identify the optimal level of consistency between the online and in-store promotional experiences . My goal was to simplify the transition for in-store shoppers to become more digitally engaged, fostering increased loyalty and spend.

Research

The research phase encompassed user interviews and surveys involving over 100 participants . It included the development of personas, journey maps, and user flow diagrams to inform our findings. Additionally, I conducted competitive analyses and usability tests to further enhance the research.

Learnings

Most importantly, I gained experience navigating the full research and design process, including problem formulation, research, brainstorming, prototyping, testing, and presenting. I became proficient in using design tools such as Figma, dedicating eight months to mastering the platform. During this time, I also refined my skills in design, remote user surveys and interviews, usability testing, quality assurance, competitive analysis, and both quantitative and qualitative data analysis.

Impact

As of result of the process, I conducted mixed-methods UX experiments to share-out more than 8 different actionable design recommendations to Kroger in regards to their promotional shopping experience.
