Increase listing completion rate on web from 40% to 60% — final result was 43.48%

  • Even though I came in after the OKRs were done, I thought I could make a significant impact here.
  • This specific issue was something I mentioned while interviewing and had thought about before starting.
  • Oumar, Toledo and I worked (mostly Oumar) on adding in Draft Listings, as well as an autosave function while you are listing an item.
  • Toledo and I also created and sent an email last week to 50% of seller with drafts which resulted in Xk listings.
  • I only scored a 17%, but I still feel like this is a win for a few reasons: we built something that needed to be built, adds a lot of value, and with a bit more effort (on boarding / user messaging), can be hugely impactful to Q1 OKRs and most likely all OKRs going forward.

So I take from this that not hitting your target goal is definitely not failing, as long as what you are doing is adding tangible value.

Animations, interactions, and why we'd use 'em

Animations, interactions, and why we'd use 'em

  • good animations you see, great animations you don’t
  • the best ones work at the subconscious level where you don’t even realize what happened, it just makes the UX better and more predictable/stable
  • they can provide guidance of what to do / where to click (think animated down arrow)
  • they can inform users of something happening to the UI (think form submit)
  • they can provide unexpected delight in the UI (think mailchimp’s email schedule animation, our checkmark growing when a purchase is made, or loving an item in Closets)
  • they can give our system a more polished, native-like feel (think toggling an iOS yes/no slider)
  • they can reduce confusion when a large change happens — instead of just hiding / showing content, animating it can help to add clarity in a UI and help reduce FUD for users
