Redesigning the platform's emails

Clearer, fewer and better-targeted emails to fix low engagement.

Context and problem

The emails sent to users had low engagement.

My role

I led the project end to end: functional specification, wireframes in PowerPoint, Jira tickets, following development with the engineers, then deploying and testing in production.

What I did

  • Created a single reference document listing every existing email, with its title, trigger rules, content and links, to get a full overview.
  • Redesigned every email with the front-end developer in a more modern style: buttons instead of text links, the context of the situation, better subject lines and shorter text.
  • Defined rules so that only essential emails are sent and users are not spammed, taking the different access levels into account.
  • Added reminder emails for notifications, which did not exist before.
  • Set up automated email tests in UAT with the technical team.

Result

Deliverability improved, along with open and click rates.
