The document discusses designing a social commerce experience on tablets. It outlines the goals of leveraging e-commerce through social networking and deciding to design an iPad app for a rich experience and usability. The tasks involved understanding existing processes, defining personas and scenarios, building workflows, placing real content, and improving the user experience. Content audits, competitor analysis, and heuristics analysis techniques were used. Features like social sharing, maps for buyer-seller relationships, augmented reality, group shopping, and gifting were incorporated. A prototype was created and tested to gather feedback on usability.
3. The Problem
• The task at hand was to design a
Social Commerce Experience on Tablet
• I have ensured that while meeting the specifications and
requirements of the design brief, I have also extended
the brief to incorporate more details and a rich user
experience.
4. “Social commerce requires more than the proliferation of share and
connect buttons within the e-commerce funnel. It requires us to
produce a truly new commerce experience in which users show up
to shop (not just buy), and in which the interaction model revolves
around other people who share their interests and passions.”
-Craig Donato, CEO of Oodle
“If I had to guess, Social Commerce is the next thing to blow up”
