This project was to increase conversion rates on a Golf Lottery website involves improving various aspects of the website to attract more visitors and encourage them to sign up for the lottery. Here are some strategies that we used to increase the conversion rates:

• Improve the website design: The website design should be visually appealing, easy to navigate, and responsive. Visitors should be able to find what they're looking for quickly and efficiently.
• Create clear and compelling messaging: The website's messaging should be clear and concise, highlighting the benefits of participating in the golf lottery, such as the chance to win exclusive prizes, support charitable causes, or gain access to exclusive events.\Offer social proof: Display testimonials from past winners or satisfied customers to build trust and credibility. This social proof will encourage visitors to participate in the lottery, as they will be assured that the process is legitimate.
• Simplify the sign-up process: Make the sign-up process as easy and straightforward as possible. This could include reducing the number of form fields required or offering social media sign-up options.
• Use email marketing: Use email marketing to keep your subscribers informed about upcoming lotteries, special offers, and other updates related to the golf lottery. This will help to keep them engaged and increase the likelihood of them participating in the lottery.

​

By implementing these strategies, you can increase the conversion rate on your golf lottery website, attract more visitors, and ultimately grow your business. These are also the mission statements

The Golf Lottery is a fun and engaging platform for golfing fans to win a range of prizes in a weekly draw. This new and unique lottery gives golf fans the opportunity to support charities within golf. The Golf Lottery is a nonprofit organisation, licensed and regulated in Great Britain by the Gambling Commission. The two objective of the Golf Lottery is:

• Raising funds for golf supported charities. Golfer’s passion for the game will sustain charities supporting sport and golf in the United Kingdom. It’s a new way of raising funds, with the aim of developing the sport from a grass roots level for communities under-represented in the game and supporting diversity and inclusivity.
• Every week Golf Lottery players will have the chance to win prizes from cash, tournament tickets to merchandise and golf products. The big prizes will include playing experiences wih Celebrities, Major winners and Ryder Cup Captains, through to VIP hospitality at major golf events including private travel and luxury accommodation.

The Golf Lottery is a fundraising tool providing your members and followers with the opportunity to contribute to your charity causes through a fun and entertaining mechanism.

​

It will provide a simple solution to assist with meeting your charitable donation targets. Set up with the same ethos, the Golf Lottery will work with and support golf's governing bodies to drive golf in a positive direction.

​

This is a unique opportunity as there are no direct competitors that currently exist in the golf sector.

​

For the consumer, the Golf Lottery is an exciting new platform on which to play to win prizes as well as support meaningful charities.

Playing is simple on the mobile responsive platform launching April 2022 with an App to follow later in the year. There are two ways to play:

1. Monthly Subscription: with a direct debit of £5 per calendar month.
2. Annual Subscription: with a direct debit of £52 per year.

I led a research and design process, supported by a talented Digital Product Owner while working remotely and in the Bank WeWork office. Our efforts led to the discovery of valuable user insights, numerous user experience improvements, and a validated long-term design direction for the future development.

1. Making customer aware of how much the service is. This is useful as one of the main problems that we’re facing is that the customer panics when they see the bank details page so early on in the journey (as there is only 3 pages, it was quite hard to sell the customer the idea of the golf lottery and get them to sign up at the same time)
2. Introducing more people to the Golf Lottery. The main problem with the product, is that not enough people knew about it, looking through data and marketing, there was some easy fixes. For example, a friendlier email to introduce users to the product, and making people aware of what the service is.
3. Rebranding for a customer friend journey. While looking through heat maps, we could see that the customer didn’t know what to do when they got on the landing page. There was no direct button that said “click me to continue”. This was a simple fix by changing the banner and making the branding more user friendly (as you can see below).

The workshop we did was a collaborative session where designers, stakeholders, and users come together to identify and solve problems related to user experience. Here are some things we did in our workshop:

1. Identify pain points: Identify pain points in the user journey, such as confusing navigation, slow page loading, or difficult checkout process.
2. Define the purpose: Start by defining the purpose of the workshop, such as improving the usability of a product, identifying pain points.
3. Define the Users: Identify who will participate in the workshop, including designers, developers, stakeholders, and users.
4. Conduct user research: Use data from user interviews, surveys, and analytics to understand user needs, goals, and behaviour.

​

Overall, a UX workshop is a collaborative and iterative process that helps to improve the user experience of a product or service. By involving designers, developers, stakeholders, and users, you can create solutions that meet the needs of your target audience.

Change the colour of the ‘Proudly supported by’ background colour so the continue button stands out and the customer isn’t Distracted by the same colour in the background. Using the primary color at the right time in UX is important because it can help to create a visual hierarchy and guide the user's attention to the most important elements on the screen. Here are a few reasons why it's beneficial to use the primary color sparingly and strategically:

1. Emphasise important elements: By using the primary color sparingly, it becomes a visual cue that draws the user's attention to the most important elements on the screen, such as calls to action or critical information. This helps to create a clear visual hierarchy and guides the user's focus to the elements that are most important for achieving their goals.
2. Avoid overwhelming the user: Overuse of the primary color can be visually overwhelming and make it difficult for the user to understand what they need to focus on. By using the primary color strategically, the designer can avoid overwhelming the user and provide a clear, uncluttered interface.
3. Maintain brand consistency: The primary color is often a key element in a brand's visual identity, and overuse can dilute its impact and create a less cohesive brand image. By using the primary color strategically, designers can maintain consistency with the brand's visual identity while still providing a functional and effective user interface.
4. Enhance user experience: When used appropriately, the primary color can enhance the user experience by providing clear visual cues and guiding the user's attention. This can improve usability, help users achieve their goals more efficiently, and create a more enjoyable and engaging user experience overall.
