How Strategically Using Color Can Improve Your Customer’s Experience

Does color really matter? What if I already have brand colors? How do I know these changes are going to help? In this presentation, I’ll walk through why the use of color is important for your brand’s marketing strategy, how color usage can impact your customer’s experience, and analyze real-world examples showing how color can affect the message sent to your customers. I will go over the steps of how to make your own color palettes using color theory, how to expand your company’s color palette in a way that works with your existing branding, and how color psychology plays a role in your color choices. Additionally, I will talk about how color can be used strategically to send a message to specific targeted audiences. When used thoughtfully and purposefully, color is a powerful tool for storytelling. I will share examples of color being used successfully to improve the experience for customers. I will also cover the do’s and don’ts of color usage; When is the ideal time to use certain colors? How do I know if my colors are ADA compliant?

A Behind-the-Scenes Look into Creating a Brand Expression

British researchers found that 94% of all first impressions with a brand are design-related — which means the look and feel, as well as tone and voice of your brand, have a big impact on user experience. If you’re considering a brand refresh, or if you’re starting from scratch, you may wonder where to start. In this session, Adam Morgan, Executive Creative Director from Adobe, will guide you through the process of designing a brand creative expression. We’ll dig into the meaning behind the project, brand story, and how you create a user-centered system with both copy and design, as well as live examples from a current Adobe brand project.

Keynote: Prescriptive UX Research and Design Strategy for a Kinder Experience

All too often design projects do not follow a sound evidence-based methodology. This results in products that end-users find irrelevant, generic, confusing, and frustrating. This type of experience ultimately diminishes the company’s brand equity. We will discuss an evidence-based, prescriptive methodology that helps marketers, content specialists, developers, and UX/UI designers strategize and collaborate more effectively to uncover and validate deep-seated user needs. This ultimately helps differentiate product offerings by delivering products that users perceive as kinder, resulting in the highest product profitability and brand equity.
