Transforming Customer Acquisition

Transforming Customer Acquisition Across a National Telecom E-Commerce Platform

Summary

A national telecom provider was experiencing friction across critical acquisition journeys, limiting customer progression through residential Internet, Mobile, TV, and bundled service purchase flows.

As UX Lead within a newly formed Digital Sales UX organization, I partnered across Product, Engineering, Analytics, and business stakeholders to identify customer friction, align competing priorities, and establish scalable experience patterns that supported customer acquisition, localization, bundling, and retention initiatives.
