Better Onboarding

Better Onboarding
Krystal Higgins at PUSH UX 2023

When new users arrive at your product, their onboarding experience is the process that's meant to welcome and guide them towards lasting success. But in a team’s quest to address short-term metrics and feature awareness, onboarding often gets condensed into just a front-loaded moment, missing out on its bigger potential.

In this talk, you’ll learn the importance of using guided interaction to create a better onboarding experience. We’ll cover how to fit onboarding into the user journey, why guiding users through interaction is a more effective strategy than front-loaded instruction, and how designing for new users connects to designing a better product overall.
