My Design Process

Discover
In order to deliver value to your customers and address key business objectives of your company, I always start by collecting and organizing insights about your organization, its product offering and the space in which it operates. During the discovery phase, I’ll learn about your customers and their expectations so we can find ways to exceed them.

Comparative Product Analysis

User Persona Creation

Experiment
Everything that’s uncovered during the discovery phase ultimately guides my design process going forward. I usually explore multiple ways of addressing specific use cases, help refine user stories, consider different approaches to complex user flows, and iterate quickly based on feedback that I solicit from the internal stakeholders.

User Stories

Information Architecture

Wireframes and User Flows

Low Fidelity Prototypes

Create
Whether it’s a responsive web app for enterprise users, a SaaS product for an SMB, or a native mobile app, I can deliver outstanding design solutions and create an unforgettable experience for your customers. As a full-service consultant, I always create systems and processes while working with you that support product growth and optimize future development cycles.

Validate
I believe that testing the initial results of my work is a critical step in delivering an amazing product experience. After a product feature is shipped, I can help you measure and improve key metrics such as conversion, retention, and engagement.

Rules of Engagement

01

Flat-fee Service Model

I never lock my clients into long term-contracts or waste time on scope meetings and change orders. Instead, I offer a low-commitment subscription to my services that you can scale up or down as needed.
02

Collaborative Workflow

Great products are never built in a vacuum, so I'll collaborate closely with your team and learn directly from end-users to help us achieve outstanding results together.
03

Timely Status Updates

I’m available on Slack during business hours, and I provide daily updates to keep you in the loop and involved in the process. Weekly stand-ups and presentations usually happen over Hangouts or Zoom.
Ivan's creativity and responsiveness made him a great partner as we reimagined and redesigned our website. I'm pleased with the results, and believe Ivan's expertise would make him an asset to many other startups that are looking to relaunch their marketing sites.
