My team was tasked with redesigning an email that is triggered to Platinum Card members after they book a flight. The goal was to reinforce card benefits and drive user engagement & benefit enrollment. Because 50% of emails are opened on mobile, the design was produced with a mobile-first approach and utilized mostly live text for legibility & accessibility.

I served as the lead designer throughout the entire project lifecycle, responsible for developing concepts, wire-framing placements, producing final creative, and delivering assets to our developers and third-party partners. My copywriter & I leveraged static data and dynamic personalization functionality to create a framework that served up geo-targeted content. The final creative was a premium-looking communication that increased cardmember spend through succinct, relevant, and personalized content.

The consumer response was extremely positive. The difference between the old and new email was a 23% increase in open rates and an 88.42% increase in click to open rates. The client even stated, "We're seeing out of control amazing results; I didn't even believe them at first."
