A user coming on the platform is either looking for mental well being or is currently stress and wants to chat with experts, in either case Now&Me onboarding flow needs to be very fluent without causing much trouble for the already stressed user.
While Now&Me currently onboarding flow is fine at many elements but its yet to capture the right cognitive biases specially progressive disclosure which shall be a main focus point for a company like Now&Me dealing in a wellness space where a lot of efforts are put into making the user feel calm.
This new onboarding flow only and only showcase all the major points missed by Now&Me app and how by adding those biases it could improve the overall user flow.
With Now&Me there are two different aspects where the company needs to set right activation metric. First is the community feature as there is a medium-strong correlation in people who are interacting on the platform with other users are highly likely to take paid chat. Second are the type of users who joins the platform for therapy from experts.
90 mins of chat therapy with same expert in 7 days
One of the core feature of the platform is to connect with top therapist at a reasonable price. Average session of chat based therapy is 30 mins and if a user spends 90 mins with the same therapist in a single week it is an indication towards the user that they really like their therapist and are consulting them continuously.
Verifying Hypothesis: How?
To verify this hypothesis, different intervals of 30, 60, 90 Minutes of chat taken in 7 days by user shall be checked against the retention. If the 90 minute have the highest impact on LTV, revenue etc.
12 times engagement through comments on posts in 3 days
If a user engages in the community it means that they have started to get the kick of the product. The product is all about helping and supporting each other. If a user engages 12 times in 3 days this means he likes the product and getting hang of it
Verifying Hypothesis: How?
Filter out the people who have engaged 12 or more than 12 times in 3 days and verify if they have become continuously active for the next few days or have they converted to a paid user.
4 times video therapy with single therapist in 14 days
Reason
Video therapy is taken less amount of times in comparison to chat based therapy because it costs more and the product itself is marketed as chat based therapy but once a user takes 4 session of video therapy where each session is of 45 mins which means the user has liked the product and is retained on the product as well.
Verifying Hypothesis: How?
Filter out the users to verify if their buying frequency has improved and if they have started using community feature as well.
3 posts in 10 days
One of the most liked feature of the app is posting your feeling anonymously and once a user starts expressing themselves on the platform without people thinking about the people signifies that they have liked the product. While receiving comments on that post is a AHA moment, multiple post signifies their likeness of the product.
Verifying Hypothesis: How?
Verify if the users has been more active in the community or have converted to a paid user
Trying out a X, Y & Z variable hypothesis as it has been seen through the data people who engages in the community a lot converts to paid customer in few days
20 times engagement, 3 session of chat therapy in 7 days
Verifying Hypothesis: How?
Firstly filter out all the people who has 20 times or more engagement and 3 paid session on the application in 7 days, then verify if their buying frequency has increased or have they been more active in the community.
One of the core feature which helps in increasing the percentage of free to paid is the community feature, as users first try out the free features and a user engaging 20 times in the community have a very high chance in converting a paid user. Community features helps in creating retention and hence better rate.
