Context

SquadApp updated its brand architecture and wanted to add more actionable content to its new user dashboard and the empty state of the “My Campaigns” section. I also needed to consider how this new content would balance and blend with the new design elements.

Challenge

The previous dashboard, while minimalist and functional, provided limited information and could’ve been more welcoming and encouraging to inspire action. The "Overview" section could also benefit from clearer naming conventions, and some language used in the Support card was inconsistent with SquadApp's more informal brand voice.

After

Solution

Working with SquadApp's UX design leads, we enhanced the dashboard's design by incorporating branded elements and developing engaging copy.

The previous empty state turned into a welcoming, informative, and inspiring space for new advertiser users, providing a clear value proposition and key steps to inspire action to create their 1st campaign.

Key UX/UI Copy Improvements

  • Replaced a generic "Time to start your first campaign" with a compelling headline that highlighted the platform's unique value: "Tap into a network of over 100,000 creators ready to level up your next campaign."

  • Introduced clear, actionable steps to give users a sense of the campaign process: "Plan your campaign," "Set your budget," and "Track your results."

  • Made the Support card subheader less formal to match Squad App voice e.g. “we’ll respond to your inquiry” -> “we’ll get you sorted ASAP”.

  • Refined the “Overview” section’s cards for clarity: “Total views”-> “Total campaign views” and “Total Publications” -> "Total campaigns posts”.

Results

User testing showed a clear preference for this new dashboard. Most notably, users reported feeling more welcome and appreciated the additional information about the campaign process.

Regarding business goals, I helped develop and restructure several user flows for the desktop and mobile apps. I also helped Squad App refine its brand voice and preference for professional, yet less formal, American English in preparation for its new rebranding and relaunch.
