A Sleep Expert in your Pocket

I reduced returns by creating a better size guide experience.

1 in 3 adults say they are sleep deprived. We explored the potential of using AI to help direct and help customers to resources and products to get better sleep.

Having a lot of fit information means nothing if your customers can't find it. Our challenge was to improve the discoverability of our fit information on our product pages, since many customers expressed a lack of confidence in the size they selected, despite the amount of fit information on our site.

The Challenge

Despite the amount of fit information on our site, customers still stated they lacked confidence in picking their size. 

I conducted a site audit and discovered that all our relevant size information, from model measurements, size guide, and rating and reviews, were all located in separate areas on the page, requiring a customer to discover each one individually.

The previous size guide experience

Our fit information was scattered around the PDP

The complexity and the diversity of the garments resulted in this inconsistent placement of information across the page.

Knowing this, we worked together to create design strategies that attempted to target each issue.

Discoverable 

How might we make current fit information easier to find? 

Consolidated 

How might we consolidate our fit information? 

Consistent 

How might we present our fit information in a consistent way? 

Relatable 

How might we help customers understand our fit information in the way that is personal? 

Contextually Relevant 

How might we make current fit information easier to find? 

Design & Testing

I focused the next few weeks on discoverability and ensuring information was consolidated and higher up on the page.

We held several design critiques with stakeholders and discussed how successful each design was at satisfying our strategies. 

My team and I decided to focus on this since other issues could be solved later once we confirmed size information was being found.

Design & Testing

To test my designs, we conducted click & time on task tests to measure their success.

From these tests, we found that people expected a lot of information to be in size guide that might not be there currently, despite the information being visible on other parts of the page.

Where might you go to understand the length of a jean? 73% of testers clicked the size guide.

Where might you go to understand the model’s height? Majority of testers clicked the size guide

Where might you go to understand the length of a jean? 70% of users still clicked the size guide

The Solution

Our solution creates a "hub" for fit information, in a place customers are already expecting this information to be - the Size Guide. 

This solution also worked because it allowed each card to be dynamic based on the information we have, solving the business problem of inconsistent information across categories, and provided an easy place to add information for the future.

The Impact

+ RPV

A statistically significant increase in revenue per visitor

By creating this hub of information, I increased customer confidence in purchase which resulted in a larger order value per customer during the A/B test of this design

Scalability

And reduced development time

This size guide hub provides a scalable experience as the team looks to add more fit information over time, reducing development and design churn.

-Returns

Statistically significantly reduced over time

We looked at returns at high turnover categories and evaluated the return rate to measure the impact of improved size information discoverability.
