Timeline & Status

Overview

CreatorX offers campaign execution, management, and performance analysis tool for creators and brands.

Campaign Processes relies heavily on multiple external applications, creating data fragmentation. Second, the execution process is excessively time-consuming, limiting agility in a fast-paced marketing environment.

I led the web experience design, to address this problem. I also played a pivotal role in developing the MVP and achieving the product-market fit.

Segment approach to campaigns.

CreatorX's feature is its ability to show users different states of campaigns (campaign status, playground, and guidelines). 

To make the stages easier to interpret, my approach was to treat each state as its own distinct segment.
