Overview / Challenges

We had a high volume of calls coming into the call center creating additional costs for Verizon. We weren't showing the right customers the right plans at the right times. Some users felt overwhelmed when ordering which prompted them to call. We wanted to create a way for users to self serve and get the information they needed in order to make decisions without having to call.

High Fidelity Designs

In our high fidelity designs we wanted to focus on creating a delightful + personalized experience, based on our customers data, to save users from repeating unnecessary interactions and creating a faster customer journey with less friction.

These were our 3 core requirements.

Human

The conversation is natural and organic. All of our services were designed with conversation in mind.
It’s designed to foster a personal connection between services and
their users.


Intentional

The conversation dynamically adapts to the customer’s needs. Focusing on creating a personalized experience, based on user data, to reduce the workload between users and conversions.

Dynamic

By making the platform modular we were are able create conversation that is not required to be linear. At any part in the process a customer can choose where the conversation goes.
