Modernizing a University Learning Management System

La Sfida

The organization ran on systems built a decade ago. Staff spent hours on manual data entry that should have taken minutes. Customer information lived in separate spreadsheets across three departments, and response times to client requests were getting worse, not better.

Il Nostro Approccio

Ricerca, Analisi e Fondamenta Strategiche

• Audited the existing tech stack and identified 14 gaps that needed fixing before anything else could work
• Designed an architecture that could handle 10x the current load without a rewrite
• Created an implementation roadmap in three phases, starting with the changes that would show results within 60 days

Design, Sviluppo e Implementazione

• Ridisegnati i flussi utente chiave sulla base dei risultati della ricerca, eliminando tre passaggi inutili dalla registrazione
• Costruito un framework di test per permettere al team di rilasciare aggiornamenti settimanali invece che mensili
• Aggiunta personalizzazione basata su quello che gli utenti facevano nel prodotto, non solo sui dati demografici
• Create dashboard che davano al management una visione chiara senza bisogno di un analista dati per interpretarle

Lancio, Ottimizzazione e Scalabilità

• Scalate le campagne che funzionavano e chiuse quelle che non funzionavano
• Espansione in due segmenti di mercato adiacenti che i dati iniziali indicavano come promettenti
• Firmati accordi di partnership con tre aziende complementari per raggiungere nuovi pubblici
• Costruiti programmi di retention focalizzati sui primi 90 giorni, dove avveniva la maggior parte del churn

Cosa Abbiamo Imparato

1. Translating the website was not enough. Each market needed different pricing anchors, different trust signals, and sometimes a completely different value proposition.
2. Starting in one market segment instead of three kept the budget focused and gave us real data to work with before expanding. The temptation to go broad early is strong, but the results argue against it.
3. Growth worked best when marketing and product shared the same goals. Treating acquisition and retention as separate problems led to conflicting priorities.
4. The single biggest ROI came from fixing the user experience. Removing two unnecessary steps from the signup flow improved every downstream metric.
5. The teams that measured everything iterated twice as fast as the ones running on gut feeling. Setting up proper tracking before launching campaigns made all the difference.
