The Right Approach to UX / CX
● UX is “Humanizing” technology
● UX is meeting expectations:
○ Ensure users can easily do what they want
to do, when they want to do it, from what
device they want to use
● UX as a process:
○ The cost of fixing an error after completion
is 100x more than fixing it prior to
completion
● UX as a KPI:
○ 1.4 Trillion lost in ecommerce (abandoned
order due to a too long / complicated
checkout process or because they needed
to create an account)
○ 30% increase in ecommerce sales when
website is optimized for mobile

OMTM: One Metric That Matters
(what can you remove and still keep OMTM in place?)
26. 26
User Personas & Identifying that One Metric that Matters
● Airbnb was struggling in New York City, which was an important
growth market for the company
● Airbnb spoke with Airbnb Users to find out what was most
important to them
● Because in many cases you were reserving the space “sight
unseen,” pictures of the space were very important
● Yet, most Airbnb hosts were using average, run of the mill photos
from their smartphone that didn’t tell the whole story
● Airbnb extended their service to include professional photography
● From there, the numbers went through the roof!
