Design Process

1. Research

  • Conducted user interviews with small business owners and sales reps

  • Identified common bottlenecks in lead tracking, task assignment, and reporting

  • Benchmarked top CRMs like HubSpot, Zoho, and Freshsales

2. Information Architecture

  • Mapped the core user journey: from lead capture → conversion → follow-up

  • Created a modular layout system to ensure easy scaling

3. Wireframing

  • Built low-fidelity wireframes to validate early layout decisions

  • Iterated quickly based on feedback from internal stakeholders

4. Visual Design

  • Crafted a clean, minimal interface optimized for clarity and speed

  • Used Figma components and auto-layouts for scalability

  • Developed light and dark UI options to improve accessibility

5. Prototyping & Handoff

  • Linked interactions and states via Figma prototypes

  • Documented user flows and edge cases for engineers

  • Worked in agile sprints, regularly aligning with devs for refinement
