- Stakeholders training on functionality on new size guide
- Tracking & Reporting post deployment

[Previous Size Guide]

Main problems with size guide:

Inconsistent Measurements: Product measurements didn’t always align with the size guide, leading to confusion and incorrect sizing choices.

Lack of Fit Information: The size guide didn’t specify whether a product was fitted, relaxed, or oversized—critical details that impact purchasing decisions.

Missing Product Length Details: Customers couldn’t gauge how long a garment would be, making it difficult to determine the right fit, especially for dresses and pants.

No International Size Conversion: Shoppers from different regions struggled to find their correct size without a conversion reference.

Poor Usability: The horizontal scroll in the data table made it difficult to read and compare sizes, creating a frustrating user experience.

RESULTS: 
We implemented these changes in 2023, and since then, we've seen a 20% decrease in customer inquiries and a 12% increase in conversion rates for sessions where users interacted with the size guide.However, return rates are influenced by multiple factors, and we’ll continue working on future projects to improve them.

Overall, this project was a success—thank you!
