Designers, you can make or break an e-commerce experience with the right design decisions. In my interactions with designers around e-commerce industry, I’ve found that many use a standard approach for vastly different platforms. ?? But e-commerce isn’t a one-size-fits-all industry! Continuing the series, here's a breakdown of E-commerce into various subdomains and its key metrics and UX focus areas. I’ve created one card for each e-commerce subdomain—like Online Marketplaces, Daily Commerce, and more—so you can refer to them or save them whenever you’re designing for a specific product. Let me know how do you like this format in comments Calling out to people working in these diverse e-commerce domains: your insights are invaluable. Please share your knowledge around key metrics, UX focus areas, and examples that have made a difference in your work. ?? Swipe through the carousel to explore the nuances of each subdomain. Let’s collaborate to deepen our understanding and create better user experiences across the e-commerce spectrum. Looking forward to your feedback and discussions in the comments below! ?? #Ecommerce #cro #UXdesign #Productdesign #Industryinsights #designers #learning

Designers, have you ever felt stuck in design ?? because you don’t understand the industry? Worry not, its not that difficult!! In my interaction with so many designers over the years, I have realised the lack of business nuances being a major friction among them other non design stakeholders. To help designers better grasp business concepts and become more business-aware, I’m launching a weekly series aimed at helping designers understand the business side of things and confidently manage non design stakeholders This will not only make you a better designer but also equip you to create products that deliver real impact. ?? Each week, I’ll share quick, easy-to-consume lessons that break down key industry concepts, metrics, and strategies. The goal? To help you bridge the gap between design and business, and in turn, level up your work. Stay tuned for next week’s post where I’ll break down a new industry and what designers need to know! Share your feedback in comments or any spercfic industry/topic you want me to cover through these posts. Happy learning ?? #uxdesign #saas #businessofdesign #businessawareness #saasmetrics #productdesign #learning

“Maza Nahi Aaya", ?? one phrase that have haunted designers not just in UX design but probably every design field. Last Saturday we hosted an adplist.org designers meet-up at Onething Design Gurgaon Studio and?to my surprise how to deal with "maza nahi aaya" feedback came up more times than I can count. We all know it: the feedback that feels like a dead-end. But trust me, it doesn’t have to be. I was joined by Kunal Katariaa Head of Product at Proxgy and sanjeev kumar Head of Design at BharatPe and together they shared their perspective from either ends: ? Sanjeev shared an extremely valid point. "Listen carefully, take notes?and remember every battle need not be fought. Understand what’s important and make sure how it can be implemented in future design sprints" Kunal on the other hand likes to bring it back to the product and business goals. He says, "Let’s talk about what we set out to achieve. He manages the design teams to build towards a product market fit?" He finds that most of the time,?other stakeholders just?need a little nudge to articulate their thoughts better." Experienced professionals like them have honed the skills of asking the right questions and managing stakeholder expectations overtime. It needs time and patience, however what I think young designers could build a framework to deal better in such scenarios. Here are a few tactics that could really work if put across in the right manner- ?? Storytelling:?Always start with a backstory. Remember jumping on screens puts you in a higher risk of getting rejected. Share the reasoning behind design choices how they align with objectives. ?? Ask open-ended questions "What did you feel was missing?" or "Can you tell me more about what you were expecting?" ?? Understand emotions: questions like, "What emotions do you want the design to evoke?" Did it get you to give me a high five. Look for adjectives that connect. ?? Refocus on objectives:?Bring the discussion back to project goals. Ask, the Why’s. I feel Why is the most powerful weapon that a designer has. ?? Use visual references: Encourage stakeholders to show what they like or dislike in reference designs. Then show them versions /references you best feel will connect well with them. ?? Business thinking in design: Get verse with business lingo. Business models, metrics, industry terms etc and design’s impact on them can go a long way in conversations. The next time someone says, "maza nahi aaya," remember: it's not the end of the road; it’s the start of a conversation. Ask questions, align with goals, and use examples to turn that vague feedback into a clear direction. I promise you, “pakka maza ayega” ?? In the end thank you Open UX Shreshth Kapoor for putting this up together. Tell me your "maza nahi aaya" story in comments. #designfeedback #communication #uxdesign #adplist #creativeconversations

Why did you choose Design as a career?? ?? Last week at an incredible session at Chitkara University, I had a chance to chat with first-year design students. I always start a conversation by asking?why they chose design as their career path, and let me tell you, the answers are always as varied. ? Some were in it for the promising job prospects and entry-level salaries ?? ? A few said, “Well, my parents made me do it.” Classic ???????? ? A love for storytelling brought some into the fold??? ? And then there were the champions of ‘Designing for Bharat’ – aiming to create solutions for our diverse population ???? It was refreshing to see such a variety of reasons. These are the future designers who will be shaping the way we interact with the world, digitally and physically. ?? But if you ask me, the best reason to choose design is the ability to ask why and keep improving things over time. It’s like being a kid who never outgrows the “but why?” phase—except now you get paid for it! ?? So, what were your reasons for choosing your career path? Share your stories, I’d love to hear them! Thank you Mohit Chitkara Rabinder Singh Johar Gopal Meena for having me over. #designthinking #futuredesigners #careerindesign #designeducation

How UX Designers can land their first job? I see hundreds of freshers and young designers sending CVs and portfolios to numerous agencies and expect to land a job interview. But here's a harsh reality: most of these get overlooked. Why? Because many lack the context and portfolio that sets them apart. But don't worry, here’s a hack that you can use to make sure you stand out and grab attention! The design industry is becoming highly competitive. It’s not just about having a CV; it’s about showing how your perspective and approach are different. Put in that extra effort, and it will pay off. Good luck! ?????????? #uxdesignesign #designindustry #portfoliobuilding #hiring #uxui
