We designed and developed the Smart+Cool site in time for the product launch and the Mautic platform deployment.

Journey Mapping

We created an Ideal Consumer Journey, which starts with the purchase of an air conditioning unit and Smart+Cool bundle, all the way to consumption reports and maintenance reminders.

Marketing Automation

We deployed, set-up, and managed an open source Marketing Automation platform – Mautic. This allowed us to transform the ideal customer journey into functional decision trees. We also set up lead scoring for various user segments, and connected the proper marketing content.

Visual & UX Design

As an initiative, we proposed initial mockups and animated prototypes, very early in the development process. These early screens, wireframes, and mockups would then serve as the guide for the client’s development team, so that they can develop the ideal features that will be integrated with their hardware device.

We created interfaces for for various products including:
  • Registration
  • Initialisation
  • Guided App Tours
  • Dashboards
  • Device Settings
  • User Settings
  • Daily Reports
  • Monthly Reports
  • Support Chat
  • Notifications
