Metro PCS
Redesign & Revamp
Overview
The main goal of this initiative was to improve the customer shopping experience on MetroPCS.com. Customers should have the ability to checkout on MetroPCS.com with a phone, accessories, plan, and add-on services as a part of the bundle while requiring payment for hard goods only. The other aspect of this project was to give the live current website a facelift to the home page, mega menus, and ad space for ongoing marketing campaigns for each quarter. Both the live and redesign sites running simultaneously while doing this overhaul and quarterly campaigns.

Below are examples of breaking these down on whiteboards for the team and annotated tests across major pages to our final result.

You can compare how our team’s work held up over the years through transitions and buyouts of Metro PCS to TMobile owned. I personally found it great to see how our product pages and comparisons of phones had help up.
