Discover what your online audience really thinks and feels

 

I help purpose driven organisations boost conversion rates, de-risk ideas, refine digital products efficiently, reduce time to market and save money by focusing on user needs.

 
 

 

Strategic User Insights

£250,000 Saved, PR Disaster Averted

I saved a client £250,000 by identifying that a feature they assumed necessary and predicted users would embrace was, in fact, unanimously rejected. This was discovered before development and launch, conserving significant funds and development time, while preventing a PR crisis. This underscores the value of UX in aligning product decisions with user feedback, safeguarding your brand and financial interests.

Ever find yourself asking these questions?

Why do users bounce instead of engaging with our product?

What's blocking our users from becoming paying customers?

Why is our Ad spend so high and our Sales returns so low?

UX Elevates Market Performance

Every $1 in UX can yield $100 in return
(ROI = 9,900%*) 

Jeff Bezos prioritised UX over advertising in Amazon's early growth, while Joe Gebbia credits AirBnB's $10 billion valuation to their UX focus. Effective UX simplifies interactions, making websites and apps more intuitive and user-friendly. Consistent testing with real users from the start reduces costs, increases retention, and expands market share.

I hired Michael when I worked at VPAR. His thorough and insightful UX Research uncovered critical usability issues, resulting in significant product improvements, increased user engagement, and a better understanding of our golfers.

His ability to translate complex findings from User Testing and a UX Audit into actionable insights helped our team identify and fix these issues. Not only that but, Michael is also a pleasure to work with: he’s collaborative, responsive, and easy to work with.

Michael possesses a unique talent for dissecting complex ideas, reshaping them into practical, accessible solutions. His refined skills were particularly evident during user interviews, where his ability to empathise with users, grasp their needs, and translate those into our work was nothing short of inspiring.

Working with Michael was a remarkable experience. His supportive nature, coupled with his vibrant sense of humour, created an environment that was both productive and delightful.

Before working with Michael, we were struggling with seeing the wood for the trees on a landing page, and understanding why conversion was low.

It was a great experience working with Michael, he delivered above and beyond expectations in giving us ideas we could implement. Michael also helped us question our approach, and make changes that led to much better results.

Michael was brilliant in providing a thorough review of my company’s brand’s marketing materials. He went above and beyond in his analysis with clear and actionable recommendations for creating a more consistent, impactful, powerful brand image and customer journey.

Michael is also someone who deeply cares about the work that he is doing, and it is reassuring to have an expert’s opinion on our brand materials as we now have greater confidence in providing these materials to the market.
