$1.6 million in additional revenue annually

This project showcases my 25+ years of experience in generating revenue swiftly, with minimal effort and expense; while still using research to refine my final design choices, ensuring a high-quality result.

Before and After

We wanted to increase enrollment in the AAdvantage program from the confirmation page in the ticket-buying process. Looking at the current experience on the left, enrolling in AAdvantage looked like any ad that users are self-trained to ignore. The page didn't have any primary buttons; I thought since users have just gone through a series of steps, adding a primary button would look like the natural next step in the process — and it did.

A/B testing the message

In addition to design and placement, we also used Adobe Target to fine-tune the message to get the most engagement.

Where We Landed

The message, "Dont leave miles behind was the clear winner. FOMO I guess.

The Result: Two Weeks Work Yielded $1,600,000

I was able to make a small change, test it, and launch it in two weeks. Small UX details can have a huge impact on the bottom line.
