Why does
Discovery matter?

Consumers have different backgrounds, sociocultural influences, and experiences that shape their understanding. At the same time, different stakeholders have unique communication needs. Our discovery process allows us to identify target audiences and design for their perspectives and goals.

Discovery Benefits

By identifying the perspectives of your target audiences, we create more impactful communication that lead to improved experiences, business efficiency, and customer loyalty.

What goes
into Design?

Design is more than just styling information to make it look pretty. Design is combination of visual aids and words that lead to true comprehension. We use our expertise in plain language, design, and cognitive psychology to create information that facilitates learning and consequently leads to action on the part of consumers.

Design Benefits

When customers gain clarity, they are capable of taking action. We use simple language, clear writing, and information design principles to create information that target audiences can understand and use. Well-designed information leads to accurate responses that protect your business, create efficiency, and promote customer loyalty.

Why Test with Real People?

Real people provide real feedback. By testing our design prototypes with individuals who align with your target demographics, we receive actionable and thoughtful feedback. Testing removes assumptions and identifies whether the hypotheses we developed during discovery are true when introduced to target audiences. We use qualitative and quantitative research.

​

Test Benefits

Testing ensures the designed information works in the real world and allows you to identify and address consumer issues early. Our goal is to prove that our designed information improves consumer understanding and reduces inefficiency in the communication process.
