Housing company Ikano Bostad decided to move to the cloud, boost their technology and simultaneously optimise their website’s customer journeys. With a holistic approach to the task, Nexer Maverick and partner Unified Commerce helped Ikano Bostad with the transformation. By combining cutting-edge technology with well-thought-out CX and UX, a solid platform that enabled Ikano Bostad to drive innovation was created.
Through several pilot studies where Maverick interviewed Ikano Bostad’s different customer segments, they were able two put their two hypotheses to the test: what mattered the most to the customers, and how did they perceive the Ikano Bostad brand.
With gained insight, Maverick designed and developed the website to ensure a greater customer experience with improved conversion. The customer journeys were tailored to Ikano Bostad’s primary customer groups; those looking to rent, those looking to buy, and partners such as municipalities and city planners.
By simplifying the user flow according to user needs, motivation and driving forces, a better experience and increased conversion was achieved – all in line with Ikano Bostad’s objectives.
With the approach “finding your way home”, Maverick optimised the website in order to make it easier for the user to make their choices; for example where to live, buying or renting, as well as more granular combinations of the available options.
