Transforming an Investment Firm’s Website

Transforming an Investment Firm’s Website

Challenge

A Fortune 100 investment firm needed to reinvigorate its website to create more engaging experiences for both financial advisors and investors. 

The website design team needed user feedback on a regular basis to assess the variety of prototypes being created over the course of the design process.

Our client turned to us to:

  • Determine consumer perceptions of current website 
  • Evaluate each website prototype on key performance dimensions
  • Inform the design process to quickly improve user experience for advisors and investors

Approach

M/A/R/C® executed a comprehensive, iterative solution:

  • A panel of financial advisors and investors participated in experience feedback on a regular basis.
  • Respondents evaluated the prototype for appearance, functionality, content, and ease-of-use.
  • A web-enabled telephone interview enabled our client to ask questions as respondents navigated the website.

Outcome

  • M/A/R/C®’s solution enabled a faster, more efficient design process with the ability to evaluate changes and updates to the site “on the fly.” 
  • This produced a website with a much-improved user experience for both the advisor and investor audiences.
